Stephen Curry and the Warriors have erased Michael Jordan's 1995-96 Bulls from the record books in at least one category.
The Warriors' 119-113 win over the Magic on Monday was their 45th consecutive at Oracle Arena, breaking the Bulls’ previous mark of 44 staight home wins. Curry showed why he is the reigning MVP with 41 points and 13 rebounds.

Golden State improved to 56-6, bouncing back from Sunday’s ugly loss to the Lakers.
It wasn't easy, though, as the Magic got to within two points — 111-109 — before Klay Thompson's 3-pointer with 52.5 seconds left gave the Warriors some breathing room. Thompson scored 27 points after being held to 15 points on 20 shots against the Lakers on Sunday.
The last time the Warriors lost in the regular season was a 113-111 overtime defeat to the Bulls on Jan. 27, 2015. They did, however, drop two playoff games at home last season, losing to the Grizzlies and the Cavaliers.
