With their 102-92 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night, the Golden State Warriors became the fastest team to 50 wins in NBA history. That puts them one game ahead of the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls team that currently holds the record for the best single-season record of all time at 72-10.
That Michael Jordan-led team took a whopping 56 games to hit 50 wins. Slackers.
In order for the Warriors to beat the 1995-96 Bulls team for the best regular season record of all time, they must win 23 of their next 27 games. That would seem like a daunting task if they weren’t currently winning 10 out of every 11 games they play; meaning that they are on pace to go 75-7.
