The Dub Nation matriarch has been following the team for years and last season her devotion rated a shootout from Coach Steve Kerr.

"Sweetie, if you're watching out there, congrats," he said at a news conference.

Sweetie: "Oh yes. I watch them and fuss at them, too."
Carolyn: "What do you fuss at them about?"
Sweetie: "If they don't do what I want them to do. I know they can't hear me, it's kind of stupid, but I do it anyway."

Golden State's slogan is Strength in Numbers. Her favorite is 23, Draymond Green.
