I used to work at the Orinda Starbucks right down the street from their old house and saw them pretty frequently and during the playoffs/finals their whole family. I do regret never asking for a pic or having him sign any of my gear since who knows when I'll ever have that chance again.

And I have heard the same about the driveway situation. Their old house is gated, but heard if the driveway gate was open people had no shame in going up and ringing their doorbell. Was so sad when they decided to move :{

That Orinda house is NICE. 3 milly though :x :{

Perfect house though. I bet the new house is FILTHY
 
If I could own a home anywhere in the Bay it might be the LaMorInda area, so chill.

I think the Dubs are gonna come out inspired tomorrow night. Roaracle is gonna be intense, just gotta get on em early and don't let up.
 
sooooooo... looking more like we facing OKC in the WCF, that team is scary when RW isnt playing reckless and lets KD take control

Same. Though, I understand why the Curry's opted for the hills of WC.

Who do you guys think will be the easier match up between OKC and SA?

OKC. They aren't a complete enough team to match up with Warriors in 7. They beat the Spurs, but that's cause Spurs were making mistakes, falling apart, not playing their system. Kawahi and LA are the go to offensive scorers? Nah. They ain't ready for a championship yet, not this year. That team needs work.

OKC just winning on the offense, and doing OK on defense. They playing Adams and Canter for the boards because they were getting KILLED on boards and that made a difference in the last 2 games. But, that line up will get killed against GSW.

I really hope they do face OKC. Easier series for them and I would really pay $ to see playoff KD/Russ playing. So far, I've seen all the players I want to see play in their prime, except for KD/Russ, so very excited about that possibility of being able to attend a playoff game @ Oracle with those 2 play, and the MVP :smokin

Both teams are pretty damn good, so.

Okc would win one at most. Not enough help for russ and kd

Sa prob win two bc it's still hard to beat them on their floor

Over looked this last night but damn, they put up a **** load of points in only 4 quarters

Glad to see that KlayDaGawd came to play in every game this series. I remember last year's playoffs being frustrated with him disappearing in multiple games, including the finals

I was still wondering why they didn't feed Klay the ball in the 4th.

But it's okay, he played great defense on Dame and the Warriors still won.

Crazy, back to back years in the WCF. I hope OKC/Spurs series goes to seven. Give the Warriors some time to recover.

I hope Bogut is okay.
 
Yes, I've been very impressed with Klay. He kept us alive with Steph gone and also kept us in last night's game. Last year I was very unimpressed with their performance in the finals. Now, with experience, if they are firing on all cylinders, RIP to any team they face. It's nice to see them going to the finals (hopefully) playing good series that test their character. Can't say the same for CLE :lol
 
Larry Bird wants Harrison Barnes?

NBA RUMORS: HARRISON BARNES LEAVING GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS FOR INDIANA PACERS

JACK WINDHAM

NBA rumors are swirling around Harrison Barnes. As the Golden State Warriors continue their quest to repeat as champions of the National Basketball Association, the impending free agency status of Barnes looms over the franchise. The former North Carolina Tar Heels star will receive quite a bit of interest from other teams in the league. According to Hoops Rumors, one of those teams might be the Indiana Pacers. They’re looking for someone to complement franchise player, Paul George.

Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird really wants Paul George to play the power forward position. He feels that it is the best way for the Pacers to compete for an NBA Championship. The uptempo style is how the Golden State Warriors ended up dominating the National Basketball Association. Bird is so committed to the idea that he was willing to let a good head coach in Frank Vogel go after the season ended.

Since he prefers playing small forward, Paul George is not exactly thrilled with the prospect of playing power forward. He simply does not want to guard bigger NBA players in the low post. George is just 220 pounds, and a lot of power forwards in the National Basketball Association weigh 240 pounds or more. That takes a toll on players, especially those that need to conserve their energy on the offensive end of the court. George is still the focal point on offense for the Indiana Pacers.

One way to appease Paul George would be to find a small forward that is versatile enough to defend power forwards. Harrison Barnes fits the bill. Right now, he’s the starting small forward for the Golden State Warriors. However, head coach Steve Kerr will oftentimes sub Andre Iguodala into the lineup for starting center Andrew Bogut. In that scenario, Barnes moves from small forward to power forward.

Even though the thought of leaving a perennial powerhouse like the Golden State Warriors seems hard to fathom, Harrison Barnes might be seeking something more. He’s already got an NBA Championship right. He might get another this season. Barnes might now be seeking to build on his own resume. After all, he’s just 23-years-old. Harrison would have a bigger role with the Indiana Pacers. That might be very appealing to him.

A great way for Harrison Barnes to build up his NBA resume would be to help the Indiana Pacers win a championship. That would give him the label of being someone that can win wherever they go, much like what Robert Horry did. It would also allow Barnes to escape the shadows of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. Those three guys are given the most credit for the success that the Golden State Warriors are having.

The addition of Harrison Barnes might have a tremendous effect on Myles Turner and Ian Mahinmi. Turner shocked everyone by being a much better player during his rookie year than people initially thought he would be. He has superstar written all over him. Mahinmi proved that he’s a legitimate starting center in the NBA. One of them would have to go to the bench. Mahinmi becomes a free agent, but it would bode the Indiana Pacers well to keep him around so that they can have another option in case they’re up against a big and physical team like the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Harrison Barnes has a very bright future in the NBA. He’ll either continue to win championships with the Golden State Warriors. Or, he will be paid heavily by another team in the National Basketball Association and be given a chance to become a bigger star.

Loved barnes when he first got drafted. I thought he had the most upside on the whole team (slasher/mid range/occasional 3s/ great defender/ rebounder/athletic dunker/#1 receuit coming out of HS)

Yall remember when kendall marshall went down in the ncaa tournament and the tar heels turned to him and he shrivled up to a fetal position like he does out here..i thought ehh hes young it happens.. but nothing changed from him he does it up here and has the same calm cool look . I mean im all for it if he stays just because he is homegrown and we tanked a season to get him hes not a terrible 4th or 5th option as well .. but if Kd is really who they want then let this kid walk
 
I think HB either ends up staying with a decent contract or he receives a ridiculous offer and leaves...He can flourish in Indiana...Sucks how inconsistent he's been this year.
