It’s time for our update on the Golden State Warriors! Still undefeated this season. And for the record, this thing the NBA are doing where they’re carrying over their streak from last season and adding it on to this season’s winning streak. I don’t like that. If they win 34 THIS SEASON, then they’ve beaten the Lakers’ record for most consecutive wins. The NBA got to stop that right now.
Anyway, enough of that for the moment, we’ll argue that if the Warriors get to that threshold. Right now the Warriors continue to dominate the league in a historically good fashion. MVP leader Stephen Curry is on pace for over 400 three pointers which has never been done in one season and for Andrew Bogut, it’s simple. Curry just thrives off taking the opponents souls.
“It’s usually a two- or three-minute spurt,” Bogut said. “It’s not like Steph’s dribbling down and shooting parking-lot 3s all game. He can sense when it’s [time], he’ll move the ball early on usually, he’ll find a sense that he can break the game, just destroy the other team’s soul and that’s what he goes for. Same as Klay.”
“We know there’s going to be a period of the game when [Curry and Thompson] go bang, bang, bang, bang, bang,” Bogut said. “So if we’re close with a team and we’re not playing that well or it’s a three-point game, it’s a five-point game, we tie it up, we know we’re going to have one of those spurts.“
It really is like that. If they’re down by less than 10, they can come back in lightning quick fashion. I couldn’t imagine being a player of the opposite team when the Warriors do that. It must be heartbreaking. But those are the Dubs for you.
