The Golden State Warriors became one of the three teams to ever get off to an 11-0 start to a postseason, tying a record set by the 1989 and 2001 Los Angeles Lakers after breezing past the San Antonio Spurs 120-108 during Saturday's Game 3.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are right on their tail and could become the fourth team to achieve such feat with a home win tomorrow against the Boston Celtics.




The 2000-01 Lakers went on to have a dominant NBA Finals, beating out the Allen Iverson-led Philadelphia 76ers in five games. The 1988-89 Lakers were swept by the Detroit Pistons in The Finals after Magic Johnson sustained a hamstring injury in the final game of the series.
Golden State also joined the legendary 1971 Milwaukee Bucks as the only team to have nine double-digit wins through their first 11 games of the playoffs, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
That 1970-71 Bucks team, considered as one of the best five teams in league history, won the NBA title, led by two of the greatest Hall of Famers of the game — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Oscar Robertson.
