On the recordJune 18, 2015
The night before last, with the whole world watching, my home team, the Golden State Warriors, brought the O'Brien Trophy back to Oakland. The Warriors, led by NBA MVP Stephen Curry, showed the power of persistence and teamwork both on and off the court. The finals against the well-matched and talented Cleveland Cavaliers were a thrill to watch. These games were basketball at its best, with both teams showing real passion on the court. It has been 40 years since Oakland last brought home the championship, and throughout this long journey, Warrior fans have stayed loyal and faithful. Thank you to the Warriors team for making our dreams of another championship a reality. I have no doubt that this remarkable team will go down in Oakland's history. Thank you to head coach Steve Kerr, Stephen Curry, Clay Thompson, finals MVP Andre Iguodala, and all of the talented players who brought this championship home. I can't wait to celebrate this win with all the Warriors fans and players at the victory parade tomorrow morning in Oakland. Go Warriors. Go Oakland. Go Dub Nation. ____________________
