Got it right, like what happened to the Golden States Warriors that fail to get the championship after breaking the bulls record of 72-10. Having a great record in the regular season does not guarantee to be a champion.

Nobody said they will, but to make a history is quite an accomplishment and I would be happy if the Bucks or the Lakers can make history this season.
They are the two teams that are consistent enough on winning but we are just talking here about the regular season, sure it would be different in the playoffs especially in the NBA finals.

IF bucks could make history this season, I might be backing them to win the East Championship but I would go against them in the NBA finals.
west teams are just way more stronger IMO.

The hype is now at its highest peak with these two teams. The Bucks are now in a winning streak in the East while the Lakers are the ones who are dominating the West. I'm excited too with this match up but whoever wins this game will have a higher momentum. I want the Bucks to win on this since they are having a winning streak right now Cheesy.
What momentum are we talking about here? This is just the regular season, not the playoffs. They are not playing in a series. You can get 73-9 in regular season and can still fail to get the ring.

They are just performing well as how they are being appreciated by the fans, we've seen a lots of hypes for both teams making their ways inside this regular season, some are hyping the bucks to make a franchise history and try to break Lakers all time history for winning the most inside the
regular season, if they continue chasing the wins it will be a great season for the bucks with Giannis leading the way.

Tonight, Giannis is out. We can see how Bucks will perform without him. But even they will lose here, it doesn't mean they are nothing without Giannis. Their real strength without Giannis might be seen within several games and not on a single game.

They won with a big margin and the streak continues.. No Giannis but no problem for this team who are in active winning streak right now.

Middleton and Bledsoe both led the team with 24 and 29 points respectively, if this is the way they are going to play in the playoffs, then I guess they have a huge chance even against the Lakers, Clippers or Sixers.

Yes, both of them step up as expected, no doubt that the two will play very hard knowing that Giannis is not there. And I do hope that they will kept going until he returns. However, it's just one game, haven't check their schedule but they could face a strong team next and could be tested if they can continue their streak here.

Praying for no injuries to come in this team.
They did great Giannis-less although that should really happen. They still have one all star in their midst whose name is Middleton.
That guy is someone which you should not take your eyes off.
He is good with his jump shots and so does with making plays and also Bledsoe.
But let us not forget Ilyasova and Hill here. Both have done good even last year. They are just stepping up now.
If Bledsoe will remain consistent with his offense in the team, they will be a big threat, maybe they learned during last playoffs, they can't rely on Giannis alone, they also need to step up when they needed most especially in big games.

Good win for them and hoping to see him back in the line up.. his status now..

Giannis Antetokounmpo (right quad tendon) had "too much" soreness to complete shootaround on Wednesday, according to coach Mike Budenholzer.

Not stated yet when he will come back.

It's a soreness in front of the thigh.
Proves he is still human.  Grin I thought he was a damn monster that will never stop playing.

There is even a rumor that it's because of load management lol.

The rumor came up because he was seen fine and no indication that he has an injury in their last game.

Giannis clearly stated that he is not a fan of load management. People should really take note of that before building rumors unless Gianni's absence is now obvious. A monster is not immune to a soreness lol.

Well we don't wish Giannis to be injured here, but I think Bucks will be fired out and will try to show what they're made of without the Greek Freak playing.

Also them wanting to preserved their winning streak, it's gonna be difficult because they have lost 30 ppg here, but I'm sure with their experience, someone will step up and show what Bucks characters with this handicap.

Is there or will have any chance that the Bucks will break the Warriors' record?

Me, Maybe if Giannis has a teammate like what Curry has when they made that record.
Both Bucks and Lakers do have a similar record in today's NBA. Although there could be some kryptonite in the NBA. They only got 5 games or less in order to beat the best record in the NBA. They could do it but remember that they still have a lot of games. That's still have 58 games to go to see in the end if they can beat the record. But anything is possible that's the NBA.

Matching or beating that record is going to be tough.  Like tonight Giannis is out, so even though the bucks are heavy favorites they could easily lose this game.  Just like if the lakers have lebron or AD out for a coue games.  Winning 70+ games will be hard to match.  Especially for the western teams right now because of the night in night out competition.

His body refuse to play.

Despite that, they are still -9.5 against the Pelicans.
I think this is all just because of the streak.

Yes, it has a chance but I disagree with that "if only Giannis has a teammate like Curry". As long as the whole Bucks maintain their good performance in the majority of their remaining games, no need for that Curry-like teammates. Why it's necessary?

... while the buck only has Giannis which even if he is a star, he might also experience some off night.

Again, disagree. Bucks is not just about Giannis. He has a solid role player teammates. No way Giannis can carry alone the whole Bucks.

Look at the stats, check his teammate's stats and especially, check the bench stats, this is one of the reasons why they are dominant. You will see that Bucks isn't just Giannis. Removed LBJ on the Lakers and Giannis at the Bucks. I see it's still a match even AD was there. Just a matter of who will stand strong if they will face on a series game.

Tonight, Giannis is out. We can see how Bucks will perform without him. But even they will lose here, it doesn't mean they are nothing without Giannis. Their real strength without Giannis might be seen within several games and not on a single game.

It's the first game he is out because of injury, how long will Giannis be out?

Hopefully he will be back soon and the injury is not that serious, well, it's really tough to reach that record and break the best record but we cannot also underestimate them since at their standing now, it's possible that they can break the Warriors best record, maybe we can give a chance like 20%.

Anyway, I feel bad for my team Warriors. They have completely fallen from a very competitive team. It's like they have switched position from Lakers. Too bad, it seems not going to see them in action in playoffs.
You have an excuse on why the Warriors are not the playoff team this season, without Curry and Thompson, it's impossible that it will be the same warriors team. There's still another season, they struggle now or let's just say they have chance to others to come back strong next season.

Even if Curry and Thompson will come back soon, being one of the worst team in the NBA, it's not likely the Warriors will make it to the playoffs.
It will need a big run if they will:(

We will see what will happen in the midst of their game, and for now it's not yet certain if they'll still be worst. Curry and Thomson has the capability to play hard, so we can't judge them based of their previous games because as the game run through it's always giving off unexpected shots. As you said a big run is needed, that's how it works as they focus on their goals for the team.

What are you talking about, thompson isnt coming back this year so how does he have "the capability to play hard" lol.  Golden state is sunk, no way they make it back to contention by the time curry comes back.  And even if they do they will be a low seed and have to rip through some serious teams to make it anywhere.  Best thing for them to do is just not rush curry back and get him hurt even worse.

It is easy to talk about how good Lebron is right now because everyone is seeing how awesome he is playing right now, however if you go back pages and check out what people were saying about Lebron last year you will see that there was a lot of people who lost hope on Lebron and thought he came to LA because he felt like he is done and he wanted his last years to be in Hollywood and grow his business and he stopped caring about basketball.

Now, we see that's not true at all and of course Lakers last year versus Lakers this year is totally different with AD on the floor but Lebron is playing his heart out during regular season to show people how he is still amazing. Saying he is good now is not really that important because last year %90 of people said he was trash and too old and done etc etc, he was injured and that was it, he was never that bad, he just had one bad half season and that's it.

They are now 21-3 and the best record is still being held by the GSW at 73-9.

It could either bet the Lakers or the Bucks can do this, both of them have that good record but I like the possibility of the Lakers to beat that best record as long as they will not go with load management, Lebron and Davis been dominating their opponent while the buck only has Giannis which even if he is a star, he might also experience some off night.
The good thing with Lakers load management can be perform even the players are actively playing the coaching staff can limit the minutes of each stars as they are composed of mostly star caliber players. The bench  are too deep where you can pick anyone that can bring good quality night for the team. You can easily switch between Lebron and Davis plus the players who will accompany them inside the court they can rest to the extent that they needed.

Yes, there is also a chance for that.

Their losses are from the Heat, Jazz and the Celtics.
Now, they have already fought with Jazz again and did win.
They need to redeem themselves with the Heat and Celtics though to prove that they can win against every team in the league.
And then, it will be their first encounter against the Dallas Mavericks and the Lakers next week.
Those two are strong teams. If they can win it, then there is a higher chance for them to set a new record.

But then again the issue about being the GOAT will popped out.  Grin
Lebron dominating the standings and surpassing what Jordan recorded which is 72-10.
That will be something for Lebron again considering he idolize MJ more than any player in the NBA.

Well, he must do it and he can. He had the roster that he needed and the pieces is also complete. He just need to create more winning games and he will be the greatest of his own era.
