Triumphant Warriors Party Well Into The Night

OAKLAND (CBS SF) – As Golden State Warriors fans celebrated the team's NBA title late Monday night in the parking lot of the Oracle Arena, a black car pulled up and the door opened.

Fans paused the revelry for a moment and were rewarded with the sight of Warriors star Kevin Durant, jumping out of the limo and hoisting aloft the NBA Finals MVP trophy while letting out a joyful howl.

The crowd roared, rushed Durant and began a spontaneous chant of "MVP! MVP!"

It was the start of a night of merriment for the team which had fulfilled the pundits' predictions since the July 4th signing of Durant.

Many of the players headed into San Francisco to continue the rivalry at the Harlot Nightclub where the music and the Moet & Chandon champagne flowed freely.

Players started arriving around 12:30 a.m. including Steph Curry along with his wife Ayesha, Coach Steve Kerr, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson and others. More than $150,000 worth of champagne was consumed.
