The Warriors are off to a 15-0 start to the season, and have looked unstoppable in essentially every one of those contests. Stephen Curry is playing at a ridiculous level, and Golden State's small-ball lineup in particular has destroyed everything in its path.

An NBA record will be on the line when the Warriors host the Lakers on Tuesday, because no team in history has started a season with 16 consecutive victories. L.A. is just 2-11 on the season (which is the worst record in the Western Conference), and Vegas has them as a 17-point underdog to the Warriors in this one.

We all expect the Warriors to cruise, and Magic Johnson is no different. Despite being arguably the greatest Laker in team history, Johnson took to Twitter last night and conceded that his former team has absolutely no shot against these Warriors.

Johnson's analysis of the Lakers has irked fans in recent years. He was critical of a good head coach in Mike D'Antoni, for example, while being supportive of his former teammate Byron Scott, who couldn't possibly be doing any worse of a job.

But despite Kobe Bryant's belief to the contrary, Magic is on the right side of the argument this time.
