I think that the basketball gods have decided that the Golden State Warriors deserve to get a metaphorical kick in the junk by the Oklahoma City Thunder after Draymond Green delivered not one, but TWO ACTUAL kicks to the junk of Steven Adams. After winning 73 games in the regular season it seemed that the Warriors could do no wrong.... then the shots to the crotch started flying. Basketball gods along with the insane athletic ability of Russell Westbrook and the crazy combination of height and handles that is Kevin Durant. Coach Billy Donovan looks like a genius but really... you have two of the top five basketball players in the NBA on the same team?!

The Golden State Warriors beat the Memphis Grizzlies tonight to win their 73rd game this season. They broke a long held record by the 1996 Chicago Bulls that included the greatest player of all time, Michael Jordan. Lots of people talk about these Warriors... "They won the title last year because the teams they played in the playoffs were all injury plagued..." or "Well if Curry played back in Jordan's day... blah blah blah..." The fact is that 73 wins in a season is amazing and the only ones that seem like they may be able to do it again in the not so distant future are.... the Warriors.
