Doing my best SuchFriends impersonation......maybe Steve Kerr doesn't want Golden State to beat his Bulls team record
OK - back to all things serious......
Back in 96, the Miami Heat beat the record breaking Bulls with the Heat dressing only eight players. Via trade, Tony Smith flew across country from Phoenix to Miami on the day the game was played. Smith scored a season high 16 while Jordan had 31. Miami won the game dropping the Bulls record to 48-6, the Heat were 25-29.
61st game of the season
1995-96 Bulls entered 54-6, lost at Knicks by 32
2015-16 Warriors entered 55-5, lost at Lakers by 17
This is not Elias official, but it is from a Vegas betting blog and backs up what SuchFriends was willing to bet:
First time ever a .900 team loses to sub .200......minimum 50 games played.
Warriors Losses This Season
Mavericks 12th in win pct

Warriors are 0-4 when facing a double-digit deficit entering the fourth quarter this season......Dubs trailed the Lakers by 11 after three, 84-73
Warriors' kryptonite
