The Golden State Warriors are the NBA’s matadors. They’re one game away from taming the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls and running with their vaunted wins record.
The history
The Warriors became the second team in NBA history to win 72 games, joining the 1995-96 Bulls. They can break the record for wins in a season in their final game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday. The last time the Warriors hosted the Grizzlies (Nov. 2), they won by 50 points.
The Warriors did break one Bulls record. Their 34th road win is the most in NBA history, one more than those 1995-96 Bulls.
