The quest for 73……and retirement of a superstar

If you follow the NBA at all, you know

A mark that has been set and never thought of being touched.  72 wins in the NBA is unheard of, but tonight is the night to possibly watch history in the making.  Not since the 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls has it been done.  With the superstars on that team it was well deserved.

But tonight, the Warriors of Golden State have a chance to beat a record that has stood for years.  Steph Curry defiantly has all eyes on him, breaking 3 point records and dazzling crowds with his shots.  No matter what, the Warriors will go down in history.

That brings me to the next topic in the story, tonight is the final game for one of the nest players to play the game, Kobe Bryant.  With the 13th pick in the draft, the Charlotte Hornets had a superstar in the making, but traded him to the LA Lakers.  His career has earned him 5 NBA Championships, 2 Finals MVPs, 2 Olympic gold metals and 18 all star game appearances.

So tonight, we might witness history, and a farewell to one of the games greatest.
