On the other end, the Sixer's are 8-50. Three straight seasons of 50+ losses.Warriors become fastest team to 50 in history. 50-5 now. They have three road games left, but since their losses have inexplicably been blowouts to teams hovering around .500 or below, their next "losable" game should be Thursday against the Magic. After that, if you assume their home games are wins and that the Lakers are an auto-win, even on the road, that would put them at 62-5 for their next "losable" game on the road in Dallas.
Of course, this is all based on assumptions, and also doesn't take into account they've looked pretty vulnerable since the All Star break.
Un-****ing-real.
Do you think the Thunder actually thought they had a chance to win at any point there?
Conversely, the Warriors clinched on Saturday.
Warriors getting blown out by the Lakers because of course they are.
Warriors getting blown out by the Lakers because of course they are.
5 of the 6 Warrior losses have now come in blow outs, and 4 of those 5 are on the road against teams currently not in the playoffs. That pattern fits the Lakers, but I figured they weren't good enough to do it.
If you assume they keep up their home win streak and win out, that puts their record at 70-6. All they would have to do then is go 3-3 on the road to beat the Bulls. However, they need to play the Spurs three times, twice on the road, and the Mavs on the road, where they've lost already.
