What Happened to Oracle Arena? ABANDONED?

Описание: The Golden State Warriors became a household name while playing at Oracle Arena. But the story of this historic venue dates back to when the team was in Philadelphia and the city had the Raiders football team of the AFL thrown at them. The city of Oakland thought that a massive sports complex, which became the the Oakland Coliseum and Oakland Arena, would make the city the national headquarters for professional sports, and help give the city an image nationally for economic development that was seperate from neighboring San Francisco.

The first four decades proved lackluster at Oracle, and a massive renovation completely demolished the inside of the arena and was rebuilt. The Golden Seals and the Oakland Oaks (led by Rick Barry) called the venue home in addition to the Warriors, who joined the last of the the three.

The Warriors drafted Steph Curry in 2008 and were bought by Peter Guber and Joe Lacob, who brought on the legendary Lakers president Jerry West to transform the team. Steve Kerr was hired as Head Coach and the likes of Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Harrison Barnes, Andre Iguodala joined the team over the next few years. The team went to four consecutive NBA Finals from 2015-2019 before moving to the Chase Center in San Francisco, including 3 vs Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
