I've done a story for Newstalk Ireland's website about Stef Curry, the Golden State Warriors, and their quest for the best-ever record in an NBA season. You can link to it here. It's really about the way their game combines aspects of the team that holds the mark, the Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls coached by Phil Jackson, with aspects of the Warriors' greatest rivals today, the San Antonio Spurs of Tim Duncan and coach Greg Popovich. Which makes sense, because Warriors' Coach Steve Kerr won three championships with Chicago, and then two more with San Antonio. I'll have to do another one one who actually IS the best team of all-time, as opposed to one with the best record. If the Spurs upset the Warriors in the playoffs, that discussion might become a little easier.
UPDATE: No sooner had the post gone up on Newstalk, than the Boston Celtics went into Oakland and beat the Warriors. Go Celts!
