Klay Thompson admits the Golden State Warriors may have been distracted lately by the possibility of making NBA history.

"We've been kind of in a fog these last two weeks, but it's not the end of the world," Thompson told reporters Thursday. "It's a long, 82-game regular season, you've just got to look at these last four as tune-up time and get ready for the real thing."

The Warriors appeared well on their way to surpassing the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls' record 72-win season after getting off to a 62-6 start. But three losses over the past 10 games - including two of their last three - means Golden State must win its remaining four games in order to set a new record.

The Warriors take on the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday in the first of two remaining meetings with the team closest to them in the Western Conference standings. A win for Golden State will clinch home-court advantage for the duration of the postseason.

Though setting the record remains a goal many members of the Warriors still look to achieve, winning a second championship is the highest priority. Because of that, head coach Steve Kerr may opt to sit out some of his players over the final week of the season. Thompson acknowledged that option has already been offered.

"He's leaving it up to us, if we want to tell him," Thompson said. "There's a time when we're all fatigue, it happens, it's natural. But it's nice, we'll get a couple days off between those playoff games. I think we've got three games in four days (coming up). We've got two days before our last game. We've got our whole full squad back, so minutes won't be as heavy. I'm only 26. If I was 36, it'd be a different story."
