MANILA, Philippines – The Golden State Warriors not only broke a record many saw as unbreakable. They did it in style.

The Warriors concluded the 2015-16 National Basketball Association (NBA) regular season with a 73-9 record after defeating the Memphis Grizzlies, 125-104 , at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif., surpassing the 72-10 mark set by Michael Jordan and the ’95-96 Chicago Bulls.

Reigning NBA MVP Stephen Curry made history of his own, becoming the first player to hit 400 3-pointers. Curry scored 46 points on 10-of-19 from downtown to finish with 402 3-pointers made. Zach Randolph topscored for Memphis with 24 points while Lance Stephenson added 22.

The Warriors led every step of the way, sprinting towards the half with a 20-point lead, 70-50.

The Warriors now turn their attentions to the post-season, where the defending league champions enter the Western Conference playoffs as the number one seed and will face the Houston Rockets in the first round. – Rappler.com
