Warriors set sights on another record

After setting the record for being the first team to go 16-0 in a season after seeing off the Los Angeles Lakers in an easy 111-77 on Tuesday, the Golden State Warriors have now targeted to go on a 33-game winning streak.

The Los Angeles Lakers hold the record as the only to have gone 33 games without tasting a defeat. It was achieved by the 1971-72 Lakers team.

But last season’s Most Valuable Player (MVP), Stephen Curry believes the time has come for the Warriors to turn the tables.

“The great teams are the ones that can focus on each individual game. We talked about 33. I think I probably talked about 33 more than anybody else just because I know about the history, and really how hard that is,” Curry told reporters on Wednesday.

“We’ve had like two 16-game winning streak the last two years, and those are pretty special feats. For us to have to double that output, we’re going to play hard and, hopefully, close in on that record.

“But it won’t be disappointing effort if we don’t get there because there are so many talented teams in the league. If we close in and get to 29 or 30 wins, then we’ll talk about it a little bit more,” he noted.
