Warriors seek record start against Lakers
OAKLAND, California – Anyone who thought the Golden State Warriors would be content after winning one NBA title was sadly mistaken.
With Stephen Curry hitting three-pointers at a record-setting pace and the rest of his teammates playing with a high level of intensity and focus, the Warriors have tied the NBA record with 15 straight wins to open the season.
Somehow, they have found a way to improve following a season when they won 67 games and rolled through the playoffs without ever being taken to a seventh game.
“We’re trying to win another championship,” forward Draymond Green said. “That’s what we’re fueled by. I think we’ve gotten greedy, but a good greedy. I think it’s way better to be greedy for success than hangover on success. I think we’re on the right end of the spectrum, which is great.”
The Warriors have a chance to break the record they currently share with the 1948-49 Washington Capitols and 1993-94 Houston Rockets when they host the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.
After downplaying the chase of the record at the start of the season, Golden State has embraced it.
