Whatever. To me it's meaningless. The regular season, especially in the NBA where half the league makes the playoffs, is pretty meaningless. Half of those wins were against horrible teams whose seasons were over and could not have cared less and just wanted to get it over with. If Curry et al can win back to back titles, that will be something significant.

I believe the Mariners broke that record one year after griffey left. I can't name the year but think the total was 114.

I looked it up after I posted, looks like they tied the Cubs record of 116 wins, although with 10 more losses. I see your point, but I think there is more significance to this record as it breaks the Bulls record with Jordan.
More people would remember those Mariners had they won the series.

I agree with you on this point, if Golden State loses one of their final three games, and fail to best the 95-96 Bulls, it will dampen their spirits. Even if they best the record, but do not win the championship, they may be remembered as an anomaly like the 2001 Mariners. However, I do not see a team that can beat them in a seven game series with home court. Last edited by pariah1107; 04-08-2016 at 03:50 PM. |

73 wins is incredible, no matter how you cut it. But for this season to be truly "one for the ages", they need to carry that dominance over to the playoffs, and win it all. The '95-'96 Bulls that won 72 games only lost one game in the first three rounds of the playoffs, and went 15-3 overall in winning the NBA Championship.

... But pitching yes, is Chesbro for post 1900, Old Hoss Radbourn has pre-1900 mark. I'm pretty sure I've seen Hoss's listed anywhere from 61 down to 58. Think it's officially 59 now. Old Hoss also liked to flip the bird whenever he got the shot. Seemed quite the character. |

Bulls
Didnt the '96 Bulls lose 2 games at home? Although I dont expect it I certainly think the Warriors are capable of beating SA at home. Heck, the Warriors are almost unbeatable against the best teams in the NBA. It is a good thing they wont be facing the Lakers or Timberwolves in the first round.
