Nothing, since the Warriors are almost always going to score 100 points anyways and the organization might as well give out free stuff for something that always happens.
Used to be (maybe 2 or 3 years ago), we'd get a Big Mac if we score 98 points at home (I think. I can't really remember).
You would get your coupon for a free big mac at the exit of the arena. There are like 4 exits at the arena though... so me and my friends would go to one exit and get a coupon, and then not leave and go to all the other exits for coupons. So yeah, 4 free big macs.

This brings up a different issue.
Should NBA teams give out food and stuff if the basketball achieves certain accomplishments?
I know fans at the Bulls board (Myself included) have been disgusted by the fact that the biggest cheers the Bulls recieved last season was when the crowd got Big Macs.
IMO, you go to NBA games to watch/enjoy world class basketball. Is it just me or has the american tradition of non-stop entertainment and give-aways become too strong of a factor in todays sports?

Lately opposing teams have been purposely trying to prevent Laker fans from getting tacos. Poor sportsmanship at best. If Kleiza ever goes out clubbing in L.A. I hope he gets his ass kicked.

Woah now. Opposing teams will try to keep the Lakers from scoring, period. That's called defense.
That's not what he means. Teams have been down 10+ or so with like 10-15 seconds left and have tried aggressively to score when they were at 98 or 99 points.
Linus Kleiza is an example of that; Denver was down 99-116 with like 10 seconds to go and he tries driving to the hoop like it was the game 7 of the nba finals in the 4th quarter with a tie game; his shot got blocked by Mbenga and recovered by the Lakers, so it was a done deal.
