The bell sounded, the confetti flew and a parade 40 years in the making set off Friday to celebrate the Golden State Warriors' NBA championship. In a rare moment of glory, Oakland shined in the national spotlight in a city that usually makes news for crime, corruption, protests and violence. Warriors fans and city leaders alike have stood behind their team through the season, and now they are basking in the glory of the team's first NBA title in four decades.
