The Golden State Warriors are charging full steam ahead, ringing the bell on their biggest challenge of the season yet by decimating the 8-4 Chicago Bulls in a dominant home performance.

This 26 point victory marked already the fourth time Golden State won a game by 20+ points in just 12 games this season. For comparison, the Dubs won 12 games by that margin all of last season.

The Golden State Warriors are rolling better than any team in the league but they will need to keep the momentum going throughout a long season.

With the best record in the league and only one loss (which came in overtime against Memphis), the Dubs are feeling pretty good about themselves. They have a top-ranked defense, one of the best offenses and the best bench mob by a wide margin.

Still, it is only November. The playoffs are a long way away and last year was a bitter lesson in how momentum can be snuffed out. Do not forget, the Dubs were in the midst of a six-game win streak before consecutive losses knocked them out of the postseason.

In order to keep this engine going strong, the Warriors will have to accomplish a few things along the way.
