Warriors parade

The Golden State Warriors are ready to host yet another championship parade. This will be the Dubs' fourth NBA Finals celebration in the past eight years.

Although Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson receive plenty of praise due to their elite long-range shooting ability, Green is arguably the backbone of the team. He is someone who appreciates discussing the sport and likes to make his opinions known. However, it was recently reported that Warriors players will not hold any public speeches nor will there be a rally prior to the parade.

As the Warriors get ready to celebrate another championship win, businesses near the parade route are doing all they can to prepare for a massive crowd of fans ...

I couldn’t be more excited for the Warriors to move into San Francisco and bring a championship to San Francisco," Konstin Jr. said. "Growing up in the Bay Area, I’m a massive Warriors fan. "We have three floors at John’s Grill and we’re planning on opening all of them.

Route: The parade will begin on Market and Main streets in downtown San Francisco. The Golden State Warriors will make their way up to Market and Eighth streets ...

This was in early May — before the Fed’s rate hike, the latest surge in mortgage rates and decline in the stock market. Will the Warriors stay intact? Taking Muni: Muni will run its buses and trains on a Sunday schedule — meaning they’ll operate less frequently than they do on weekdays — because of the Juneteenth holiday. But even then, the real estate agent who listed this property said there was a noticeable lull in the market. BART’s four downtown San Francisco stations will take riders directly to the parade. Here’s what to expect. The agency is bracing for a surge in crowds and will deploy more employees at stations and run “as many as 12 special event trains” in addition to regular service Monday, according to BART’s service plan. Here’s what Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole and others are saying. We take a look at a property in San Francisco that recently sold ... for $1.4 million over its asking price. What about TV coverage?

The Golden State Warriors will make their way up to Market and Eighth streets, where the parade will end around 2 p.m. The stretch is just over a mile.

Draymond Green is apparently only going to the Golden State Warriors victory parade if he gets a chance to speak.

Draymond has never been afraid to speak his mind, including on-court taunting or discussing the NBA Finals every step of the way on his podcast. He has continued to talk trash on Twitter following the Warriors' clinching Game 6 win over the Boston Celtics on Thursday. The team is celebrating its NBA title during a parade through San Francisco on Monday, but there won't be a public rally where players give speeches, per Kylen Mills of KRON 4 News. Green joked this is enough to stay home:

The Golden State Warriors celebrate their latest NBA title with a parade down Market Street in San Francisco -- we'll carry the livestream right here ...

Fans will have the chance to get an up-close look at players, coaches, staff and team legends. The parade is expected to conclude at about 2 p.m. The parade will start at 11:20 a.m. Monday at the intersection of Market and Main streets in San Francisco, the team said.

Unlike in years past, it doesn't appear the Warriors' championship parade will have a rally with speeches at the end of the route. And fans aren't the only ...

"So that's why you see, every time I make a shot, I look at him." But mostly he made fun of coach Steve Kerr: "Every time I take a shot, he complains," Green joked. And fans aren't the only ones disappointed about this change.

With hundreds of thousands of transit riders expected at San Francisco's parade for the Golden State Warriors, Monday could prove a bonanza day for the BART ...

The Warriors sent a mass email Sunday to fans on their email list, hawking 2022 championship merchandise such as a $199 “Varsity Full-Snap Jacket.” The team also included a helpful, pre-written form letter that fans eager to attend the parade could use to get out of class or work. With hundreds of thousands of transit riders expected at San Francisco’s championship parade for the Warriors, Monday could prove a bonanza day for the BART system — maybe one of its busiest ever, despite recent ridership being a fraction of what it was before the pandemic. Golden State Warriors power forward and budding podcaster Draymond Green tweeted Monday morning that he might skip the team's championship parade in San Francisco over the lack of a rally with speeches. Standing at Market Street near Fifth at 7 a.m., settling in for the eventual parade passage of the Golden State Warriors on Monday were Terry Collins, 55, of San Francisco, and his children, Terry Jr., 36, Jada, 14, and Teiari, 8. Downtown San Francisco was awash Monday morning in Warriors’ blue and gold, hours before the scheduled 11:20 a.m. start of Golden State’s championship celebration. The agency had said earlier Monday morning that a trackside power problem had knocked out service to San Francisco on the Richmond line, advising those headed into San Francisco to board a Berryessa train and transfer at MacArthur station to a train at SFO. BART said Sunday its trains would run to and from Richmond every 15 minutes until 8:00 p.m., on the red line and orange lines. After shutting down its red line on Sunday to fix a power cable issue, BART said Monday morning it was dispatching trains to Richmond for service into San Francisco as thousands of fans headed to the Warriors’ parade. Asked why half the station was blocked off, the deputy raised his eyebrows and said “It’s for when everyone goes home — it’s going to be real busy.” The Golden State Warriors’ championship parade on Monday could prove to be one of BART’s busiest days in history — a one-day godsend for the transit system that’s struggled throughout the pandemic. The Clipper card app on Monday morning was having problems with payment and purchasing, the transit card company said on Twitter, just as people were massing on public transit to get to the championship Golden State Warriors parade in San Francisco. The agency said users should load their cards before entering BART or moving away from crowded stations for better phone service. Much of the Embarcadero was stopped up from about 2nd Street to Market Street. As they approached the escalator, one exclaimed, “This is about to be insane,” and they headed up.

BART officials said early Monday that service on the Richmond line to San Francisco will...

While the issue is similar to what caused train cancelations in March 2022, the fault is on a different location along Richmond line, BART said. BART first experienced problems on the red line on Friday due to a power cable failure. The news came on a day when hundreds of thousands of people are expect to pour into San Francisco for the Warriors parade.

This may be the Warriors 7th championship – the fourth in eight years – but this year's win is the team's first since calling San Francisco home.

June 20, 2022 June 20, 2022 June 20, 2022 Parking will be nearly impossible. I'm sure it will be super packed. It should be super fun.

The Warriors took to the streets in San Francisco to celebrate their 2022 NBA championship.

Steve Kerr and Steph Curry provided one final reminder of their NBA playoff dominance before the Warriors' championship parade.

But it’s clear that Curry’s “night night” gesture will live on for years to come -- in Dub Nation’s memories, on their shirts and most definitely in photos. Curry’s now-signature move makes for a perfectly petty T-shirt that was proudly rocked by Kerr for Monday’s championship parade down Market Street in San Francisco. Curry’s iconic “night night’ gesture signaled the end was near for each team Golden State faced in the playoffs on their way to a fourth league title in eight seasons.

While piloting his boat, Thompson entertained fans by going live on Instagram. Before the parade could even begin, Klay Thompson kicked off the festivities in signature fashion. On Monday, the Golden State Warriors will celebrate their run to the 2022 NBA title with a championship parade.

Klay Thompson yet again proved why he's the most whimsical man in the NBA by cheerfully livestreaming his boat ride across San Francisco Bay to the Warriors ...

For one, it's important to keep the bay clean. And secondly, Klay seems to really want it back. Luckily, Thompson had a backup plan, outfitting himself instead with a cartoonish captain's hat.

Captain Klay Thompson drove his boat to the Warriors parade in San Francisco on Monday, but showed up without his 2022 NBA Championship hat.

The team took over the streets of San Francisco Monday to celebrate their latest NBA championship. “Keeping it real goes wrong people,” said Thompson, who showed off the view of the ocean on his way to the parade. “That why you gotta strap it in tight.

Klay Thompson lost his NBA Finals hat in the Bay, but every good sailor has a backup cap on hand.

The seasoned captain is essentially one with the water, but even the most experienced sea voyagers can make mistakes. The loss of Thompson’s Finals hat was a sad sacrifice to the water, but someone sailing in the Bay on Monday might just find a souvenir worthy of a champion. As his vessel cruised through the waves, Thompson was in the middle of an Instagram livestream when a gust of wind ripped his 2022 NBA Finals championship hat from his unsuspecting head in an unforeseen turn of events.

Draymond Green took issue prior to Monday's Golden State Warriors celebratory parade that no players would be talking. Well, guys got their chance and the ...

Curry had wet eyes, and Thompson didn’t let the chance to make fun of his teammate slide. Kerr did his best Curry imitation of the moment. The answer had Curry practically falling out of his chair. “I’m trying to think of the most controversial thing I could say,” Green said, per SF Gate. “I don’t know what you want me to tell you. “Whether it is taking a picture with an old lady or with a small kid,” he tried to explain. ... I’m just gonna continue to destroy people on Twitter and Instagram stories.

Draymond Green will never let his doubters hear the end of it.

He felt like this is not the best time for my family and me to leave.” In an interview just off the stage, Kerr shed a bit of light on assistant coach Kenny Atkinson’s decision to stay with Golden State for next season. But Green took a moment to genuinely reflect, too, saying that so much “had to be aligned” for this specific Warriors team to win the title. “So I’m just going to continue to destroy people on Twitter, as I have been.” There were many throughout the day. “I told y’all, ‘Don’t let us win a (expletive) championship and clearly nobody could stop it.

Having four parades in eight years hasn't gotten any less exciting for the Golden State Warriors and their fans. Before sunrise, Warriors fans were already ...

On Monday morning, the Golden States Warriors will parade in San Francisco after last week's Game 6 victory in Boston over the Celtics.

“It was the work we started once we changed buildings and trying to carry that championship DNA.” Anyone who dared question the Warriors’ greatness should, in his words, “just shut up.” When talking on camera with Oakland rapper Mistah F.A.B., Green asked if the interview was live and then said, “F— ’em.” A Warriors team that won championships across the Bay in 2015, 2017 and 2018 brought Golden State to heights fans could have never imagined just a decade before. Around 6:30 a.m., shouts of “Waaaaaarriors” echoed off the sides of the concrete corridor while car horns blasted in celebration. “I hear all the time about Joe Montana, but I’m 36, so not old enough to remember him real well,” Roy Siu said. The Warriors-dominated era in the NBA that Thompson, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green had created was supposed to be over. To be able to bounce back from where we were is pretty incredible.” Disbelief was a shared feeling Monday for many longtime Warriors fans and even some members of the organization. “It wasn’t just the work we put in last week and the work we put in a month ago,” Curry, a 13th-year veteran and Finals MVP, said of the journey to a fourth title. Curry wore the three championship rings earned in Oakland on a chain around his neck. “The reason it was a surprise is we kind of stunk the last couple of years,” head coach Steve Kerr said. “Whether it’s taking a picture with an old lady or a young kid, Dub Nation has no bounds and we have fans from all walks of life,” Thompson told fans assembled in front of the Ferry Building along the Embarcadero before the start of the parade.

Draymond Green's speech at the Warriors' championship parade on Monday could not have ended any differently.

“What brings me the most joy — I know everyone thinks it’s talking s–t — after the first NBA championship is seeing the guys who won it the first time. “What you appreciate about the journey is the people that you go through it with,” Green said. He said that it has been an “amazing year” and that this was a season in which, unlike past championship campaigns, everything had to break right and the teammates all had to be “aligned” to win his fourth NBA championship with the Warriors.

The Warriors parade in San Francisco went smoothly with very few issues reported. Traffic was heavy and crowds were large as expected, but fans and players.

But for the most part, players and fans alike enjoyed the parade in a safe manner. We're having a great time at the parade." Due to the massive crowds, there were a few mishaps along the way and toward the end of the parade.

The Warriors celebrated their fourth title in eight years in style as thousands crowded the streets of San Francisco for Monday's parade.

They responded by yelling, "F---, Draymond," a nod to the chants that Boston Celtics fans yelled at Green, and what the Warriors copied in their locker room celebration after clinching the title. After closing his rally speech by saying, "Thank you all, and it's always f--- everybody else," Green stood in the middle of the street and held up two middle fingers to the crowd. Green ran around high-fiving fans, even allowing one to dump a bottle of champagne on his head. He then scooped up the trophy and took off running, high-fiving and dancing with any fans that ran alongside him. Ayesha Curry pointed at a sign that read "Ayesha can cook," before popping a bottle of champagne and spraying it down on her husband. "We represent you guys," Curry told the small crowd made up of team and arena employees at the pre-parade rally.

Draymond Green warned the NBA not to let the Warriors win another championship. They didn't listen.

I warned y’all, so I’m just going to continue to destroy people on Twitter, as I have been, and Instagram stories.” I don’t know, what y’all want me to tell you? “I'm just trying to think of the most controversial thing I can say, like the media, like they do, you know,” Green said.

From Steph's epic on-air mic-drop "night-night" celebration to Klay's Michael Jackson dance, the Warriors championship parade was full of surprises.

He also ran around the streets and got close to fans. And the dancing didn’t end with coach Kerr. Klay Thompson got off the bus to show off his moves in front of fans. He hopped off the bus as fans screamed with excitement and even made one young fan’s day when he carried the boy over the rail and let him walk with him through the parade. From being cut by the Warriors before the start of the 2021-22 NBA season to celebrating a championship with the same team eight months later, he's living a dream that came full circle. Moments later, Payton got off the bus to engage with fans. A shirtless Payton was seen rolling through the parade with a water gun in his hand, truly living his best life.

Draymond Green and Juan Toscano-Anderson pop champagne bottles and eat ice cream on Warriors championship parade.

So Toscano-Anderson hopped the barricade, waded into the crowd and emerged with a gift, the sombrero on his head. The two teammates posed together for photos, and maybe to soak in the moment. Fans congregated on one corner and chanted “Mexico” when the bus passed. After fleeing the bus to dance with the Jabbawokeez, slap hands with the fans and hold up a “Most Valuable Podcaster” sign with his podcast art on it, Green disappeared into the streets. Green and Toscano-Anderson had the Larry O’Brien trophy first on their bus. The second one was “them.” So, naturally, I was on the assembly line to pass a bunch of wires up front to get “Big Rings” by Drake and Future playing again. We drinking Lobos and telling y’all to shut up.” Not only were we inundated with sights and smells, but we had to keep our head on a swivel. He and his mom went back up the block to the Ghirardelli chocolate shop for some strawberry and mint ice cream. The bumping bass was just the beginning of a sensory overload atop that bus. You’d hardly know it was broken — the roar of the crowd and ambient music down Market street created its own soundtrack to the Warriors’ celebratory parade.

Steph Curry and his teammates rode victorious along San Francisco's Market Street with their families, jumping off double-decker buses to greet roaring ...

“It never gets old,” the best shooter in league history told a television reporter, wearing a shirt emblazoned with “Back Again” and listing the team’s title years. As Porter jumped off the bus to spray champagne on the crowd, police tried to guide the masses back to the sidelines. By the early afternoon, emergency responders had reported treating numerous people for minor and often heat-related injuries, including a teen boy who briefly fainted and was expected to recover. But it was too late: Market Street was for the fans. “It’s a squad, a pack of Warriors,” Haag said. Alma Antioquia of Newark came to celebrate Curry’s MVP and the team’s rebound. He threw his arms around Porter and they jumped up and down. The double-decker buses were crowned with the team’s Larry O’Brien championship trophies, one of which Green held overhead as the buses plowed over the carpet of confetti. The parade was just blocks from home for city native Edana Contreras and her caregiver Andrew Haag, both lifelong fans. Juan Toscano-Anderson poured a golden liquid out of a bottle into the open mouths of waiting fans. Their verdict was unanimous: the Warriors were unbeatable after all — a team for the history books, with four rings now since 2015. “It’s time to celebrate Dub Nation!” she called out.

In what was likely the biggest crowd downtown San Francisco has seen since before the pandemic, thousands of faithful fans gathered Monday morning along.

“Number one draft is going to be the right team and chemistry.” Former Oakland resident Jon Kirst was excited to be a part of the celebrations here in San Francisco after watching the past three championships from across the bay. And so everyone loves a parade and energy more than ever, right?” Reyes said. Reyes said coming out of the pandemic made the win even more special for the Bay Area. “Just a sense of normalcy back to like reopening good times, right? Jonathan Garcia, 24, watched the parade from in front of Proper Food, a restaurant at Market and First Street where he was completing a work shift. Fans from all across the Bay Area were thrilled to see their idols, their “future husbands,” in the flesh, and broke out into ecstatic cheering whenever a new bus carried another player by. “I’m so happy that we’ve evolved since way back with you know, Chris Mullin, Tim Hardaway to Chris Webber and Steph Curry. So we’re all good now — I’m happy.” “Anyone who hustles like him, especially this season, is a fan-favorite in my book.” In the sea of blue and yellow, creativity paid off — those who found scaffolding or even trees and lampposts to perch or hang off of were rewarded with views beyond the backs of people’s heads. When the bus stopped a few yards away, people left behind their spots to catch a longer look at him. Sanchez said the pair had arrived early, and had hoped there would be an area where they could participate in the party as well. But it worked out — the parade fell on her birthday and she found herself with double the reason to celebrate.

Here's the best of Klay Thompson at the Warriors' championship parade.

Thompson was lit from the moment he got to the parade. Fortunately, Klay found the ring, gave it a kiss, and went on his way. Thompson was absolutely having the time of his life at the parade as the Warriors celebrated another ring. Thompson’s love of being on the water on his boat is well-chronicled. His hat flying into the water really set the tone for the rest of the parade. Thompson has played with remarkable joy since returning to the court after such a long and grueling rehab process.
