Jay Wright doesn’t like talking about the numbers. He doesn’t care how many games they’ve won in November, or how long they’ve been #1, because that isn’t going to make his team any better. That’s what’s most important, and he’s got the team focused on playing at a very high level early in the second half of the season.
But we are not on the team. We are fans. And numbers, specifically records, ARE a big deal to us when they get broken. While the players and coaches might need to wait until the end of the season to appreciate how great this run has been, we get to relish it the whole way through.
