In the 1971 season they adopted the name Golden State Warriors. The Warriors have won four NBA championships and have made finals appearances three more times. In 2009 the warriors drafted Stephen Curry from Davidson College. They build up their three point shot surrounding Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. The Golden State warriors started to make playoff appearances vary quickly and won the NBA championship in 2015 over the cavaliers in a six game series. Along with the championship Steph took home the MVP and Andre Iguodala took the finals MVP. This season the Warriors have set many NBA records. Setting a start of the season record with 17 wins and 0 loses. Also setting the most three’s made in a single half with 15. This shows how lethal the Warriors are beyond the arc. Stephen Curry is also the season leader in steals and points. The Golden State Warriors also lead the NBA with the highest scoring games averaging around 115 points per game. The Warriors are also the second team in NBA history to get 70 wins a single season next to the Chicago Bulls. Draymond Green says, “Most of the guys in the locker room are saying, `We're right here, we've put all this effort into it, let's go for it.." Stephen Curry says, "With three games left and 73 still there, it's obviously a lot to play for." Golden State Warriors fans really want them to get the record. Warriors fan Colby Trask stated, “The Warriors are to good for the NBA and they are going to get the record.” The question still is will the Warriors get the record? Comments are closed.
