Golden State Warriors Finish Historic Season with 73-9 Record
Steve Kerr's Absence a Minor Bump in the Road
Luke Walton's Interim Leadership Led to Team's Impressive Start
The 2015-2016 Golden State Warriors season was one for the history books. The team finished with a remarkable 73-9 record, setting a new NBA record for regular season wins. The Warriors' success was due in large part to the leadership of head coach Steve Kerr, who led the team to a 39-4 start before undergoing back surgery. In Kerr's absence, interim head coach Luke Walton took over and guided the Warriors to a 67-15 finish.
The Warriors' dominance was evident throughout the regular season. They finished with the league's best offensive and defensive ratings, and they had a number of players who were among the league's best. Stephen Curry was named the league's Most Valuable Player after averaging 30.1 points per game, and Klay Thompson was named an All-Star after averaging 22.1 points per game. Draymond Green was also a key contributor, averaging 14.0 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 7.4 assists per game.
The Warriors' success continued in the playoffs, as they defeated the Houston Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers, and Oklahoma City Thunder to reach the NBA Finals. In the Finals, they faced the Cleveland Cavaliers, who were led by LeBron James. The Warriors lost the series in seven games, but they gave James and the Cavaliers all they could handle. The Warriors' season was a historic one, and they will be remembered as one of the greatest teams in NBA history.
