For the second straight year Gleyber Torres New York Yankees Jersey , throngs of Golden State Warriors fans turned out for a victory parade to celebrate a team some are calling an NBA dynasty and got a treat when several players got off their buses to mingle with the crowd.

Hundreds of thousands of fans in gold and blue and holding signs that read ”Dynasty” and ”Back to Back Champions” waved from behind barriers set up along the route in downtown Oakland, California, as the Warriors rode by in the open, double-decker buses Tuesday.

Stephen Curry, NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant and the rest of the Warriors, who won their third title in four years last week, took turns raising the Larry O’Brien Trophy for the roaring crowd, which officials said could reach up to 1 million fans.

Officials had promised an ”interactive” parade with some fans able to ask the players questions and giant TV screens for the crowd to see them and hear their answers as the moved along the route. But there were no screens and when Klay Thompson used a megaphone to say hello Taven Bryan Color Rush Jersey , his greeting was drowned out by the cheering crowd.

Curry was able to connect in a different way when he opened a bottle of champagne, shook it and sprayed the crowd with it. He briefly got off the bus and walked up to fans, throwing T-shirts, bracelets and other souvenirs to them and then holding the trophy up as dozens of cameras surrounded him.

Curry wore a large sun hat and under it a ”RUN TMC” baseball cap in honor of Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin, the namesakes for the Don Nelson-coached Warriors teams during the 1989-90 and 1990-91 seasons.

”We never really imagined that we would be having one parade, let alone two and now three,” Curry said during a short live interview before the parade started. ”But this is for you guys! We are going to try and get greedy and go get some more.”

JaVale McGee http://www.broncosauthorizedshops.com/authentic-daesean-hamilton-jersey , Nick Young and Jordan Bell posed for photographs and also mingled with fans, even hugging some of them, energizing the pumped up crowd. Even coach Steve Kerr joined in on the fun and walked up to fans to sign autographs.

”I’m just excited to be here with these guys” McGee, who was wearing only shorts, told KGO-TV. ”Our fans are amazing! All the love that they show is just beautiful.”

Young, also just in shorts during a very warm afternoon, ran up and down the street, giving fans high-fives. He then took a broom from a fan and posed for photographs as dozens of people took pictures with their phones.

The repeat champions went back-to-back http://www.brownsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-chad-thomas-jersey , beating LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-85 on Friday night to finish off a four-game sweep of the NBA Finals in the fourth consecutive meeting between the clubs.

Melissa Marzan, 25, of Santa Cruz said she doesn’t take the Warriors’ winning streak for granted.

”We all know it’s not going to happen forever, so for now we’re just going to enjoy it,” she said.

Oakland resident Jasmine Culp, 36, painted her lips blue and dressed in a sparkling golden sequined dress, sash Mike McGlinchey Color Rush Jersey , and blue-gold feather accessories to attend the parade with her three children, Jonavon, Jewel, and Cypher.

She acknowledged it could be the family’s last parade in Oakland, since the Warriors plan to move to San Francisco next year.

”It’s sad to see a big part of our city move away,” she said. ”Not going to want to travel over the bridge to see them, but we will.”

Adriana Carnecer of San Francisco said she is a lifelong Warriors fan and is excited the team will be closer to home.

On the Warriors being dubbed a dynasty, the 15-year-old said ”it’s the start of something that’s going to be greater than it already is.”



A jury has ruled in favor of the Boston Red Sox in a lawsuit brought by a woman who says she sustained severe facial injuries when she was struck by a foul ball at Fenway Park.

The jury Wednesday found that the team and principal owner John Henry were not negligent.

Stephanie Taubin Derrius Guice Color Rush Jersey , of Brookline, sued for $9.5 million, saying she suffered facial fractures and neurological damage from a foul ball in June 2014 while sitting in luxury seats above and behind home plate unprotected by glass or netting.

A spokesman says while the Red Sox ”regret the injury” to Taubin ”we are pleased with today’s outcome.”

Taubin’s attorney says he’s disappointed. He says his client was paying attention, but the ball moved so fast she could not avoid it.
