Will The Warriors Actually Top The Bulls' 72-10 Record?

It seems like the Warriors' unbelievable season this year has been undermined by March Madness this past month, as well as Opening Day of the MLB. The Warriors are 68-8 and just five wins away from topping the '95-'96 Chicago Bulls 72-10 record. Unfortunately for Golden State, there is little room for error with only six games left in the season. Will they top the Bulls' record? Let's look at their schedule.

Tuesday, April 5, vs. Minnesota Timberwolves

Thursday, April 7, vs. San Antonio Spurs

Saturday, April 9, @ Memphis Grizzlies

Sunday, April 10, @ San Antonio Spurs

Wednesday, April 13, vs. Memphis Grizzlies

One thing to consider is the scheduling. I think the Warriors will definitely lose to the Spurs not only because the game is in San Antonio, a place where the Spurs are undefeated this season, but also because they'll be right off a game in Memphis.

The problem is Tony Parker, a Point Guard for the San Antonio Spurs, said that he doesn't think "anyone," meaning any of the starters, will play in those two games since the Warriors are too far ahead to catch, and the Spurs are locked in at the No. 2 seed. That'd be frustrating (coming from a Bulls fan perspective) because the Warriors would have a 73-9 or 74-8 record partially because teams rested their players at the end of the season. There will always be that little asterisk in the minds of Bulls fans and former players because of that.

My prediction is that if the Warriors can beat the Timberwolves and Spurs at home, they'll go 73-9 and hold the best NBA record of all time.

Whether or not they do better than 72-10, we definitely can't say we haven't been entertained by one of the greatest shooters ever.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
