The Golden State Warriors just broke the NBA’s all-time regular season wins record—one of the most storied records in the history of the game.

League MVP Steph Curry and his splash brothers made NBA history with their win against the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday night, surpassing Michael Jordan’s 1995-96 Chicago Bulls who went 72-10.

With 46-points on the night, Curry continued to make history by making 400 3-pointers in a single season, surpassing his previous record as the first player in history to hit the 300 mark.

Back in February, Jordan gave the Warriors his blessing by telling swingman Klay Thompson to “go ahead and break the record.”

However, Jordan’s right-hand man Scottie Pippen, said that his Bulls would sweep the Warriors in a head-to-head matchup.

"I knew what it was but you never really thought about it in perspective of anybody chasing it. It was kind of that number that was out there that seemed invincible," Curry told reporters after practice on Tuesday, according to the Associated Press.

"Even at the beginning of this year, even when we started 24-0, it was kind of: 'Well, maybe we can do it. We're going to keep playing every night with the intention of winning as many games as possible,' but it just sounded kind of ludicrous, 72-10, how much good play has to go into it. We're there now, 72-9, and we've got one more chance to beat it."
