| 0:00.0 | Good morning and welcome to the NBA Daily for November 13th, 2024. |
| 0:11.3 | Coming up, we had Clay Thompson back in the bay for NBA Cup opening night for group play. |
| 0:16.8 | We had Joel Embed back on the court. |
| 0:18.8 | We got Trey Kirby, who went to the Bay. |
| 0:21.3 | We got a big night. |
| 0:55.5 | Good morning, everybody. Good morning, S. Good morning. Tray Kirby. You're live at Chase Center. We're recording this right after the Warriors beat the Mavericks in Clay Thompson's return game. Thanks to a crazy Steph Curry fourth quarter. And we'll get to the game. But, Trey, you were in the building. It was obviously an emotional night for everyone. |
| 0:59.6 | We saw the Captain Clay hats everywhere, the tribute video. |
| 1:01.6 | What was it like in the house? |
| 1:08.0 | If I were going to describe it, Dave, I would have to say it was honestly a festive atmosphere here in the bay. |
| 1:11.8 | Clay coming back, you know, the Warriors really pulled out all the stops to make him feel welcome to kind of honor his place as a legacy player here with the Warriors. They wanted |
| 1:17.0 | it to be an inviting atmosphere for Warriors fans to celebrate Clay Thompson's career, his accomplishments, |
| 1:23.3 | and for Clay to feel good about coming back to the Bay. So yeah, you mentioned the captain's hats. I've never seen better fan participation when it comes to an arena giveaway. I haven't seen that many of the guys courtside wearing a hat that wasn't a captain's hat. And it stood out. It stood out to me. That's just rude. Look, there were some other hats around here, no doubt about it. But I saw people putting a captain hat on top of a regular hat. |
| 1:44.6 | Usually you don't like a hat on a hat, Dave, but in this scenario, I was loving it. |
| 1:48.7 | Great fan participation. It was really cool. The Warriors, when Clay arrived, they had |
| 1:53.9 | hundreds of employees in their captain's hats, really ready to salute Clay to thank him for |
| 1:59.7 | his time here in the bay. And then we came out. |
| 2:03.6 | Introduction was really, really cool. They did the video tribute before the game even started. |
| 2:07.9 | Before we even got to starting lineups, Clay was trying to play a cool man. He was trying to |
| 2:12.0 | avoid the media. It felt like all day long, but between the salute and the hallway and the |
| 2:17.2 | bowels of the arena and then the video tribute, like the guy you could tell was touched by everything. |
| 2:21.5 | Then we got into the game and we got Steph versus Clay, the very first possession. |
| 2:25.3 | It was awesome. |
