NFL players react to Warriors setting wins record

Published: Apr 13, 2016 at 06:25 PM

How impressive has this Warriors season been? In 82 games this regular season, Golden State lost just nine times. Their Bay Area football counterparts, the Raiders and 49ers, lost a combined 20 games in 32 regular-season contests.

Many football players were in awe as the Warriors beat the Grizzlies 125-104 to win their 73rd game this season, setting the NBA record for most victories in a single regular season. Additionally, many were impressed with Golden State star Stephen Curry becoming the first NBA player to hit 400 three-point shots in a season. Here are some of the best reactions on social media.
