CHICAGO ¨C Stephen Curry is about to win his second consecutive NBA Most Valuable Player award. In its penultimate game on Monday, his team tied the all-time record for wins (72) in a season, equaling Michael Jordan¡¯s 1995-96 Bulls¡¯ record that many believed was as unassailable as Wilt¡¯s 100 points.
Curry¡¯s Warriors ¡ª and they are without question ¡ª are on a quest for their second consecutive NBA championship and to be considered among the greatest teams of all time along with those Bulls, Russell¡¯s and Bird¡¯s Celtics, West¡¯s and Magic and Kareem¡¯s Lakers and Duncan¡¯s Spurs. Anyone could see why those teams were dominant by looking at their leader, superstars from adolescence and certainly by college.
Which makes the Golden State Warriors¡¯ and Curry¡¯s story even more amazing than their record quest this season.
