Warriors Will Offer Full Five-Year $205M Max To Stephen Curry
On Thursday, it’s all about the parade.
The Warriors won the NBA Championship on Monday night, defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games.
However, despite their recent dominance and talks of whether or not they are a new generation super team, Mills says the Warriors aren’t unbeatable.
One thing is clear – if no one can assemble a truly special team, the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy could very well reside in the Bay Area for years to come. The good news for Warriors fans is that Curry doesn’t seem to want to leave either, saying he doesn’t see himself playing for any other franchise in the National Basketball Association. This year’s finals may not be the last time the two teams meet either.
Yes, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson should have gone higher in their respective drafts, but they were still both lottery picks.
“Today is about celebrating our championship”, the statement read.
But several of the Warriors, including Curry, find themselves opposed to some of the philosophies espoused by President Donald Trump.
The road to redemption for the Warriors began after the painful loss in the Finals a year ago after leading the series 3-1 against the Cavaliers and failing to win another game.
The Golden State Warriors celebrated on the Oracle Arena floor after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
From atop a double-decker bus, Warriors guard Klay Thompson sprayed champagne out of a large bottle toward fans.
The Warriors made one of the great playoff runs of all time to win the title.
The Finals may have ended shortly in five games, but they were filled with record breaking performances.
Golden State went 40 years between titles after winning the crown in 1975.
Patrons packed BART trains, with many departing at Lake Merritt station, where a chorus of fans chanted, “Warriors” – the team’s rallying cry.
The parade starts at 10 a.m.at Broadway and 11th Street in downtown. The Warriors made history this season by sweeping all three of its playoff series, which took a fair amount of ad dollars off the table for league TV partners TNT and ESPN/ABC.
Curry reached the NBA Finals in each of the past three seasons and sits first among active players in three-point shooting percentage at.438.
If the Warriors do decline or if they accept the expected invitation and individual members of the organization opt not to attend, they will be the latest professional sports champion whose franchise was split in their judgement. Not if you ask Oakland. They took the lead and held it, defeating the Cavaliers 120-129.
