From Rick Barry to Stephen Curry, Oakland fans embraced Warriors even when losing
OAKLAND, Calif. -- On Sunday for the 332nd straight game, a stream of fans will form a sellout crowd at the NBA���s oldest arena, wedged between the 880 Freeway and a BART station and flanked by an industrial park where delivery trucks rumble in and out and belch smoke. When poet Gertrude Stein years ago uttered her famous line about her hometown -- ���there���s no there there��� -- perhaps she had this gray patch of pavement specifically in mind.
