Dub Nation Invasion: Warriors Owner Flies Entire Front Office To Cleveland For NBA Finals
OAKLAND (CBS SF) - If King James is going to defend his home turf he's going to have to do it in front of a blue and gold army.
When LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers take the court for Game 3 of the NBA Finals they'll have to take on the Golden State Warriors, all of them, even the traveling secretary and the facilities crew. That's because Warriors owner Joe Lacob flew the entire front office to Cleveland to watch the Warriors play for the franchise's first title in 40 years.
The team tweeted a photo of them leaving for Cleveland at 9 a.m. Tuesday.

According to published reports, the team has even bought up hotel rooms for the entire crew:

No word on how the team plans to score all of those tickets, and there is no sign of Rihanna on Joe Lacob's flight.
