Fans chanted "Free Dray-mond! Free Dray- mond!" and large cutouts of his face waved from all corners of Oracle Arena as he watched from a baseball suite next door in the Oak- land Coliseum. "You want to win here more than anything for your fans. They deserve to see us win, but you just suck it up and move on," Thompson said. "We're still in a great position." While Green returns for Game 6, the Warriors might be down big man Andrew Bogut. The 7-foot center sprained his left knee early in the third quarter Monday and was scheduled for an MRI exam Tuesday before the team traveled. Bogut has been an imposing presence with his shot-blocking abil- ity, but the Warriors have some depth at the position and often use a center-by- committee approach with Festus Ezeli and Marreese Speights among others like Anderson Varejao getting regular opportunities to contribute. "If there's a chance he's out Thursday, our bigs are just going to have to step up. Been doing it all year," Thompson said. Defensively, the War- riors must find a way to keep James and Kyrie Ir- ving from going off the way they did Monday, with each scoring 41 points. Not that the always-con- fident Warriors are overly concerned.Theyareagroup that bounced back from ev- ery rare loss during a re- cord-setting, 73-win regu- lar season. Golden State is 14-1 following a defeat. "We're in the same place we were last year, up 3-2 heading back to Cleveland. If you told me this before the series, I would have taken it," coach Steve Kerr said. "So we're in a good spot. We're disappointed we didn't win tonight, but, like I said, they outplayed us. They deserved the win. And we'll go back to Cleve- land and we'll play a better game for sure." Golden State doesn't have much further to fall after shooting a postsea- son-low 36.4 percent — its first game below a 40 per- cent clip — despite getting 37 points from Thompson with six 3-pointers and Curry's 25 with five 3s. "You tip your hat to them. They had a great night," Curry said. The Warriors are trying to close out the fifth cham- pionship in franchise his- tory and third since mov- ing out West from Phila- delphia in 1962-63. Each of the last two since com- ing to the Bay Area have been clinched on the road — the first title in 40 years last June and also in 1975, when the Warriors won at Washington with a four- game sweep of the Bullets. "It (stinks) that it hap- pened tonight with the op- portunity we had in front of us to close out a series at home in front of our home fans, and it's a tough feel- ing," Thompson said. "But you work hard in the se- ries early to put ourselves in this position again on Thursday, and we'll be ready." Warriors FROMPAGE1 Ernie Els, who won at Oakmont in 1994, la- mented rough so thick that not even the stron- gest players would be able to do more than get back into short grass. The Masters brings ex- citement as the first ma- jor of the year on a course that metes out birdies and bogeys, eagles and double bogeys. The U.S. Open at Oak- mont? "Trepidation," Rory Mc- Ilroy said. "It really de- pends the venue that you play a U.S. Open at, as well. But yeah, this week it's def- initely not excitement. You know you're going to be put under a lot of pressure on basically every single golf shot you hit out there. So you have to be prepared for that. You have to be prepared for how mentally demanding it's going to be, how much concentra- tion you're going to need out there. "It's the toughest test in golf, and you know that," he said. "And you have to do everything you can to prepare for that and try to do your best." This isn't the longest U.S. Open course, not even close. Five of the par 4s are under 400 yards, an anom- aly in this era of power. It's no less intimidating. Branden Grace de- scribed the opening hole as "horrible." The closing hole is among the strongest in major championship golf, and Angel Cabrera's tee shot down the middle in 2007 is still celebrated as one of the great drives un- der pressure in U.S. Open history. US Open FROM PAGE 1 The arena, which seats 17,500 for hockey, was built entirely with private money by MGM Resorts In- ternational and Anschutz Entertainment Group, the owners of the Los Angeles Kings. The Las Vegas area had nearly 2.2 million people in the 2010 census, making it the largest population cen- ter in the U.S. without a major pro sports franchise. Public support for Foley's bid has been robust, and the NHL has noticed the appeal of being the only major sports show in a town that loves a big event. "This could be a wa- tershed moment for our community and sports in Southern Nevada," said Jonas Peterson, president and CEO of the Las Ve- gas Global Economic Al- liance. "Having a profes- sional hockey team will not only boost our econ- omy, but also our sense of community pride." Mayor Carolyn Good- man said she couldn't con- firm the expansion, but said she senses a "great probability" for the deci- sion because of a shift in the conversation in the last two weeks. "H-E double-hockey- sticks yes!" said Clark County Commission Chair- man Steve Sisolak, the first person to make a deposit on season tickets. "I'm ex- cited, but I'm waiting for the official announcement from the NHL. Las Vegas has been waiting for this for decades. We're a ma- jor league city. We deserve major league sports. I can't wait to see that first cham- pionship parade down the Las Vegas Strip!" The days when sports leagues were wary of the potential corruption in Ve- gas' massive sports betting scene are apparently fin- ished, making the grow- ing, multicultural city an attractive candidate for sports looking to get in on the market. The Oakland Raiders have held serious discus- sions with Vegas leaders in recent months about a move to Nevada, with owner Mark Davis sug- gesting that he and his partners, including casino magnate Sheldon Adel- son, could build a $1.4 bil- lion domed stadium near the Strip with substantial public money. David Beck- ham met with the group in April, and the English soc- cer superstar suggested Ve- gas would be a candidate for an MLS team with that new field.
