CLEVELAND (KGO) -- The Golden State Warriors face the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 3 of the NBA Finals Tuesday night. The team's brass wanted to make sure there was plenty of blue and gold inside the Quicken Loans Arena, so they flew their entire staff to Cleveland and held a rally ahead of the big game.

"This is once in a lifetime," said Warriors employee Dominca Sizar. "To be with the Warriors and to be able to come here and cheer on our Warriors is fabulous and we are all so excited!"

Another employee said, "Everywhere we travel is Warriors Ground and we have strength in numbers."

It will be tough for Dubs fans to overcome what is a clear and unrelenting devotion to the Cavs, in a town that hasn't had a championship in any sport in 51 years.

And fans there are gearing up for what they hope is the historic end to that drought. The team's slogan is "All In."

"I know their arena is loud, but my little brother is the announcer for the Cavs and he is going to have this place off the chain tonight," said Cavs fan Don Crump
