Flashback: Marikina childhood friend Ray Abenojar was in the country. Perfect timing.

April 13, 2016. Benicia, CA. We had a Dubnation party to watch the Golden State Warriors try to be the first NBA team to 73 wins -- and they did.

The Golden State Warriors achieved a record-breaking 73 wins in the 2015-16 NBA regular season. This record, previously held by the Chicago Bulls with 72 wins in 1995-96, was a historic achievement for the Warriors. They finished the season with a 73-9 record, breaking the previous NBA record.

Interesting take

Let's talk about the 73-9 Warriors

In the playoffs, they

-beat 44-38 Blazers
-went down 3-1 vs 55-27 Thunder; came back
-went up 3-1 vs 57-25 Cavs; became only team in NBA Finals history to blow a 3-1 lead

96 Bulls
beat 42-40 Heat
beat 47-35 Knicks
swept…
