It has been a long time since the Sacramento Kings were the premier team in Northern California.
Believe it or not, there was a point in time when the Warriors took a back seat to all things Kings. There were no “We Believe” shirts being worn at your local grocery store. There wasn’t a kid with a Stephen Curry jersey on every blacktop basketball court. People talked about the Kings first and the Warriors were secondary, if they were talked about at all.
My how the tables have turned.
Over the last 5-6 years, the Warriors have vaulted themselves in to NBA supremacy, and have enjoyed one of the most successful runs that any professional sports team has ever had.
