I've found myself following the Warriors a bit more than my childhood favorite Lakers for the last several years.  Which makes me feel like a gross bandwagoner, actually.  So my standard line is that while I am very happy for the Warriors' success, but I can't quite bring myself to fully embrace them like I do Stanford teams (of course.)

I didn't mention it in OP, but the W's even have a big Stanford connection in owner Joe Jacob.  And they are moving to the West Bay and S.F. soon, so closer to Stanford too.

Speaking of Lacob, he grew up in Boston area and was a giant Celtics fans.  Guessing he's pretty geeked about possibility of W's vs Celts in NBA Finals!
