Reigning NBA champs the Warriors prepare for upcoming season
OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- The reigning NBA champions held court on Media Day as the new season approaches. Sent off with a parade in June, the Golden State Warriors returned to the Bay Area for the start of a new season.
It was a short off-season for the Dubs, just three months, but with an NBA championship firmly in hand, no one here is complaining.
With all the attention comes even higher expectations.
"We're going to get everybody's best shot every single night and we know that. We have to be on our best," Warriors guard Stephen Curry said.

It's a fact not lost on the likes of league MVP Curry, who reeled off a couple highlights from his short summer.
"My daughter being born, it's hard to trump that right? Outside of my family, probably playing golf with the president. That was a cool experience," Curry said.
Klay Thompson says he, too, expects every other team to bring it every night.
As for when he fully realized he and his teammates were the best in the world, Klay said, "I think it hit me during the parade. Just to see how united the Bay Area was and see a million people in the city of Oakland, that was one of the most amazing things I've seen in my life."
While not promising a repeat of last year's championship season, Draymond Green did send a clear message to the Warriors' upcoming opponents. "I definitely think we can get better," he said.
