The Warriors celebrated their third title in four years before Tuesday’s game against the Thunder on Tuesday night, and Oracle Arena, as usual, was lit for the epic celebration.
It marked the final time the team would have a championship ring ceremony at Oracle Arena, given that the team is set to move across the bay to Chase Center. That’s why the celebration on Tuesday was extra special. Two-time MVP Stephen Curry gave a quick speech, and the team unveiled its 2017-18 championship banner.

Warriors co-owner Peter Guber, however, had some issues getting his on. The ring appeared to be a bit small, so NBA commissioner Adam Silver had to force it on.

We highly doubt one of those will be hitting eBay — ever.
