Now the winningest team in NBA history, the Golden State Warriors need one more victory to become back-to-back champions.
On Friday night, the Warriors bounced back from a 30-point loss to win Game 4 over the Cleveland Cavaliers, extending their NBA Finals lead to 3-1. Because the first round has expanded, the Warriors surpassed the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls with victory No. 88.
Yet it will take one more triumph to trigger the celebration.
According to NBAsavant.com's Daren Willman, Golden State hasn't lost three consecutive games since 2013. The Western Conference champions have lost three home games all year, and the Cavs must beat them twice at Oracle Arena.
While the Warriors overcame a 3-1 deficit against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, no team has ever lobbied such a comeback in the NBA Finals.
Good luck, Cleveland.
