That bet you made predicting the Warriors would finish the season 82-0, get ready to pay it off on Sunday.
Golden State suffered its first loss of the NBA season Saturday night, ending a 28-game winning streak that dated back to the final four games of the 2014-15 regular season. The unlikely “hero” America needed … the Bucks.

Despite a now 10-15 record, it was Milwaukee who fired the first silo of the NBA season. A strong effort behind Greg Monroe’s 28 points, 11 rebounds and five assists secured the 108-95 victory.
Needless to say, Twitter had its fun.

Anyone can win 24 straight. 25 is for the great teams.

Question is, which Warriors team is real? The one that won the 1st 24 games and a ring last year or the one that lost to the Bucks tonight?

While the world celebrates, the fact remains: this is still a defending champ capable enough to string off 28 consecutive wins.
Any celebration will be short lived.
Huge weight off Warriors shoulders. Now they can just play free. Probably rip off 10 more in a row.
