Baron Davis Tweets Fond Shoutout to Oracle Arena in Honor of Venue's Final Game
By Joey Mauceri

It is an understatement to say that the Golden State Warriors have a lot on the line Thursday night. The reigning two-time NBA champions are heading into Game 6 with their season on the line, facing a 3-2 series deficit against the formidable Toronto Raptors. Not only could this game spell the end of their season, but Game 6 will be the last game ever played by the team at Oracle Arena.
The Dubs will be playing at the Chase Center in San Francisco starting next year, and Thursday night will surely be emotional as Warriors players and fans alike say goodbye to the beloved arena that they have called home for the last 53 years. Among the people saying goodbye to Oracle is former Warrior Baron Davis, who tweeted his goodbye to the venue ahead of it's final game.
Last game at Oracle. Love you guys!! You gave me memories and moments that I will cherish forever. Appreciate the love everytime I walk in the building. The same energy when I played.?? Bay Area is my second home and Dubs fans are family for life!!!! #Godubs #Bayarea

The Warriors first began playing at Oracle in 1966, just four years after they moved to San Francisco from Philadelphia. Plenty of fond memories have been made in that building, including plenty of playoff and NBA Finals games.
Though the Warriors will never play at Oracle Arena again even with a victory tonight, winning Game 6 would certainly mean a lot to a home crowd that is sure to be running high on emotions.
