Warriors don 'We Believe' uniforms for regular-season finale at Oracle
For the final regular-season game at Oracle Arena, the Golden State Warriors harkened back to their past by wearing the red, blue, gold and white throwback jerseys they sported from 2003-10.

The “We Believe” Warriors, who shocked the Mavericks in the first round of the 2007 playoffs, popularized the jersey. They became only the third No. 8 seed to advance to the second round. (Since then, two more teams have achieved the same feat.)
Stephen Curry, the guard for the Warriors, expressed special excitement about the jerseys, donning a No. 8 Monta Ellis jersey to Sunday’s game against the Clippers in tribute to his ex-teammate.

However, as this pregame clip demonstrates, he certainly wasn’t the only one.

The Warriors switched to their present jerseys and color scheme in the 2010-11 season. Since then, they have experienced one of the most triumphant periods in NBA history, clinching three championships in the last four seasons. They are also eyeing a fourth as the playoffs kick off this Saturday.
After the game, Golden State honored its arena.
