The Warriors clinched the NBA title in Cleveland and although Oracle Arena was at full capacity for Game 6, these fans deserve to celebrate with the players and the Larry O’Brien trophy. That is exactly what Dub Nation got today during the championship parade in Oakland.

It was all smiles and happiness across the city of Oakland. The floats were amazing and it was a beautiful day. Although Draymond Green had his own bus/float, he decided he wanted to get closer to the crowd:

When the players finally got to podium, they had an opportunity to speak to the thousands of Warriors fans in attendance. The person everybody was waiting for was Draymond “Money” Green. However, before he got to the podium, he was interviewed by Rosalyn Gold-Onwude of CSN Bay Area and he provided plenty of hilarious comments:
Draymond is on a good one. https://t.co/BptS3FRrg9 @warriorsworld

While on the stage, Draymond was surprisingly calm and collected. He did say that Coach Steve Kerr has hated him since day one, but it seems like it’s all fun and games. He mentioned that Kerr would get upset whenever he shot the rock. Kerr yelled out, “24 Percent” and Draymond had the best response you can think of:

After Draymond Green was Andre Iguodala, the Finals MVP. Iggy was kind enough to remind the audience and the people in the crowd that Green was like that drunk uncle at a barbecue that we’ve all seen and experienced:

Iguodala was spot on. It was fun times and surely the Warriors and Draymond Green will keep celebrating for the next few days, maybe even weeks.
Is anybody having more fun than Draymond?
