OAKLAND -- BY NOW the folks at Morton Steakhouse in Cleveland have the lavish postgame dinner spread for the Golden State Warriors down. There's steak, any way you'd want it. Gigantic platters of salad. A raw bar with jumbo shrimp, crab and lobster around a fancy ice sculpture.
The Warriors have done their team dinners at Morton's a half dozen times over the past few years, as they've played the Cleveland Cavaliers in three straight NBA Finals. It's connected to their team hotel, and it's sentimental -- the place they celebrated their first NBA title in 40 years back in 2015.
