The reigning MVP also had five assists and five rebounds.

Of course, Don Shula’s 1972 Miami Dolphins finished the regular season 14-0, then won three postseason games, including Super Bowl VII against Washington, to finish 17-0, which must be considered the best single-season team record among the five major North American sports.
Last year, the Rockets came down from a 3-0 deficit in the playoffs to knock off the Clippers in thrilling fashion.
But, I will leave it up to you, who do you think is the next face of the National Basketball Association? Jackson hit another to put the Piston’s in front with 4:46 left, and they never trailed again.
It’s not even a Stephen Curry quick-release 3-pointer. From their ball movement to things like Andre Iguodala taking a backseat to Harrison Barnes as the team’s starting small forward, the reason the Dubs are so unsafe extends beyond Stephen Curry’s shooting prowess – this roster is full of players constantly setting each other up for success. I picture the Warriors getting off to a hot start in this one and keeping a solid lead throughout, finishing it off with the Warriors bench outplaying the Memphis 2nd team yet again to a comfortable win.
“It’s probably more about easing him back in”. In the case of Festus Ezeli, it appears his breakout season has finally come. When they give us that type of performance, it just makes us that much more unsafe.”TV: 8 p.m. ET, CSN Bay Area (Golden State), FSN Southeast (Memphis)ABOUT THE WARRIORS (8-0): Steph Curry has slowed a bit from the superhuman pace he set in the first six games, but the bench has picked up the slack”.
We all remember what happened last time these two teams played – a 50-point trouncing back in Oakland to start the season.
The Detroit Pistons are doing very well so far this year. Most importantly they will have to improve their defense if they want to win games. It’s been a fantastic start to the season for Griffin, and if he continues like this he might be 1st team All-NBA. Everything was clicking – Andrew Wiggins had 16 points, Zach LaVine was playing like an All-Star point guard and Karl-Anthony Towns was a force down low. Especially with the way the Kings are struggling to create team chemistry early on in the season, the matchup should be a relatively easy win for the Pistons while they’re still trending up. He’s still putting up 24/7/7 per night, shooting 50% from the field, and leading the Cavs defense as they are off to a 5-1 start. Another big key will be communicating on the pick-and-roll and trying not to unnecessarily switch off, allowing Curry to take shots in rhythm, or driving lanes to create.

This is because the Grizzlies have two big men on the floor who are known for strength and not speed. For the last couple of games, Rondo has played strong by being the ideal offensive playmaker Kings fans envisioned him being once he signed with the team. And just like the night before, chipped away at the lead – they were within four heading into the fourth quarter.
