NBA Title with Best Run Ever
(AP) -- They could outrun
teams like the Showtime Lak-
ers and outgun them like Mi-
chael Jordan’s Bulls — and
the Golden State Warriors had
a more dominant postseason
than either.
Their run was better than
anything Bill Russell or Lar-
ry Bird did in Boston, so they
should be able to claim a spot
on the list of the NBA’s best
teams ever.
Golden State finished the
playoffs 16-1 when they beat the
Cleveland Cavaliers 129-120
Monday night in Game 5 of the
NBA Finals. They ended with
the highest winning percentage
ever in the NBA postseason and
won 15 consecutive games, the
longest streak in the majors of
North American sports.
“This is history. We’re going
down as one of the best teams
ever, and that’s a special thing
you cannot take away from us,”
reserve Andre Iguodala said.
