2. 2015-16

2015-16 was the year that cemented the Dubs dynasty as the greatest team in the history of the NBA.

The Dubs entered the season as defending champions and managed to usher in a new era of dominance, setting a record-breaking regular season 73-9 record. Which surpassed the 95-96 Chicago Bulls total of 72-10.

Golden State broke over 25 records and more than 10 franchise records that season, including most wins ever recorded in a season (regular-season and postseason combined) with 88.

Steve Kerr’s men started the season on a surge winning 24 straight games which was actually the best start for any professional North American sports team, breaking the record held by the 1884 St. Louis Maroons.

The team set an NBA record 54-straight regular-season home-game winning streak, which spanned from January 31, 2015 to March 29, 2016. Golden State also became the first team to go the entire regular-season without back to back losses and without losing to the same team twice.

Despite losing the 2016 NBA finals, the team’s efforts didn’t go unnoticed as Steve Kerr was named coach of the year, Stephen Curry wrapped up his second straight MVP, broke his own record of three-pointers made (402) and became the seventh player to enter the illustrious 50-40-90 club.

While Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green were all selected for the All-Star game. The first time the Dubs had three representatives since 1976.
