I still can’t believe the Warriors really won 73 games (alien.top)

I know it’s happened and this is probably the least interesting post ever but when I reflect on recent NBA history, it is still shocking to me what happened that year. I never thought it would be remotely possible. It was just a record that could never be touched.

And yet it really happened. I don’t think it gets enough credit because of the “it don’t mean a thing without the ring” piece but as time passes, I gotta say it’s just a standalone incredible achievement.

The fact that the last 30 games of the season they were the target for every team, no one wanted to see them do it, and they still did it. It’s incredibly impressive.

I was a huge kobe stan prior to 2016 and one of the numbnuts that advocated his goat status. However, after that legendary finals from Lebron? I actually had to re-evaluate what goat meant.

People argue peak vs longevity when talking about goat, but id say winning 4 in a row, down 3 against a 73 win team is up there in peak.
