       CONGRATULATING THE 2018 NBA CHAMPION GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS

  (Ms. LEE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. LEE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with my colleague, our Leader 
Pelosi, to congratulate the 2018 NBA champions, my home team, the 
Golden State Warriors.
  Now, on Friday, the world watched as the Warriors swept the Cleveland 
Cavaliers and claimed their third NBA title in 4 years. Led by two-time 
MVP Steph Curry and two-time NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant, the Warriors 
have cemented their dynasty in NBA history.
  The team is an example for young people, showing that if you can work 
together, you can accomplish anything.
  These finals against the talented Cleveland Cavaliers were a thrill 
to watch. We saw basketball at its best, incredible talent, and a real 
passion from both sides.
  Thank you to the Warriors for making our dreams of another 
championship a reality. This remarkable team has made history as one of 
the best ever.
  I want to extend my thanks to Coach Steve Kerr for his tremendous 
leadership, as well as the entire Warriors organization.
  Today, the bay area is celebrating our remarkable team in my 
beautiful City of Oakland, as in Oaktown, and I know that my late 
mother, Mildred Massey, who was a loyal Warriors fan, is smiling down 
on us.
  Go Warriors. Go Oakland. Go Dub Nation.
