3. Home is where the heart is and despite the fact they play in the car park of the dilapidated Oakland Coliseum they only lost two games there during the regular season

4. Not that they get travel sick either, the Warriors also had the best away record in the league this season

5. Steve Kerr has won nearly 82% of his games in charge this year. It’s a small sample but the 49-year old has clearly added to everything he learned under Phil Jackson and Greg Popovich

6. He dishes, he dashes, he swishes, he splashes, he’s the NBA’s best player not named LeBron James and, this season at least, he’s even surpassed the King.
