Golden State Warriors Win Streak By The Numbers
December 17, 2014
The Golden State Warriors had their 16 game win streak snapped Tuesday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. While the streak was not even half way to the record 33 wins in a row by the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers, the streak has set the Warriors atop the Western Conference with a 21-3 record on the season. Like the Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania, Golden State’s streak was snapped before it could continue in the Bay Area.
