Count retiring NBA legend Kobe Bryant among those who wants to see the Golden State Warriors go after the single-season wins record. When asked by reporters after a game in Los Angeles, Bryant stated that, if he were in their shoes, he would try to “set the damn record.” Then again, that’s quintessential Kobe Bryant.
As it stands, the Warriors are just three wins away from breaking the record set by the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls. The Warriors are trying to do something that no other team in history has ever done, and that’s something that resonates pretty deeply with Bryant, a superstar who has made a career of going against the grain.
