The Warriors have just announced that they’ve ended their 32-year run with KNBR (and 40 years total) and signed a multi-year deal with 95.7 the Game (KGMZ-FM) starting this coming season.
This is a major move for the franchise–away from KNBR’s monster signal and tradition–but it has been in the works from the moment Warriors executives (led by owner Joe Lacob and president Rick Welts) were infuriated when KNBR moved several Warriors playoff games this spring to a sister station in order to broadcast Giants games.
Big bullet point for Warriors management: 12 of their 24 playoff games this past season were not broadcast on KNBR 680 due to Giants conflicts.
