Honestly, I think the Golden State Warriors will finish the season 70-12 or 71-11. They have a chance at 73-9, but the road trips can make things very difficult, especially back to back games. Remember their first loss at Milwaukee on the night after a double overtime win at Boston? They still have to play the Spurs at least 2 more times, and I think they have to play Oklahoma City a couple more times. We are just assuming that everyone on this team will stay healthy during the next two months.


Nobody is going to win 78 games. OMG That would be impossible.

I had States current record wrong. I am going to go with 76-6 worst case scenario 75-7.

No way in they lose 8 or 7 games in the last several weeks unless Curry sits more than half of those games.

They shouldn't be worn down. How many 4th quarters have these guys sat out so far?

Total Minutes Played 2015-16 Season

James Harden - 2054
Marcus Morris - 1917
Kyle Lowry - 1913
Gordon Hayward - 1910
DeMar DeRozan - 1879
John Wall - 1877
Paul George - 1875
Trevor Ariza - 1873
Lebron James - 1864
Andrew Wiggins - 1862
Kemba Walker - 1861
Russell Westbrook - 1853
Kentavious Caldwell Pope - 1847
Joe Johnson - 1829
C.J. McCullom - 1820
Jimmy Butler - 1817
Marc Gasol - 1791
Monta Ellis - 1787
Rajon Rondo - 1788
Isaiah Thomas - 1785
Chris Bosh - 1778
DeAndre Jordan - 1767
Jae Crowder - 1767
Thaddeus Young - 1760
Serge Ibaka - 1757
Paul Millsap - 1749
Draymond Green - 1737
Al Horford - 1736
Jordan Clarkson - 1713
Damian Lillard - 1696
Kevin Durant - 1694
Stephen Curry - 1692
Wesley Matthews - 1689
Carmelo Anthony - 1670
Kevin Love - 1668
Anthony Davis - 1666
Kawhi Leonard - 1655
Klay Thompson - 1640
Chris Paul - 1622
Dwyane Wade - 1512
LaMarcus Aldridge - 1480
Derrick Rose - 1479
Tony Parker - 1310
Tim Duncan - 999
Andrew Bogut - 940
Manu Ginobili - 846

That's not a ton of minutes logged for a group of guys who haven't missed many games this season. There are several stars who've logged fewer minutes than the Warriors starters but most of those guys are old and/or injured. I'm not sure being well-rested because you're at home nursing a sore back is necessarily a good thing.

Kyle Lowry is 2 years older than Steph Curry and he's already logged 221 more minutes this season. That's crazy. If the Warriors suffer a losing streak, fatigue shouldn't play too much of a role in it since nearly every other team's starters are logging more minutes per game. If anything, they should be the freshest team during the second half of the season.

all star weekend I think mike wilbon had the Portland game as a loss. They will lose against the Thunder and then the spurs in April. The only way they lose at home will be against the wizards.

The Warriors just had their 5th loss tonight at Portland. This is just their first game after the All-Star break. Maybe the rust after a 5 day break was the reason. The Warriors have to play the Clippers tomorrow night. The Clippers just won a key matchup against the Spurs. I really don't think the Warriors will surpass the record.

Steph Curry drops 51 on Orlando defeating the Magic 130-114. Curry was 10-15 from 3 point range and set an NBA record for most consecutive games with a 3 (128).

Curry has led the NBA in 3's made the last three years:


2012-13 272
2013-14 261
2014-15 286
2015-16 276 (at this point in the season)

BTW Golden State is now 52-5
