Put the Golden State Warriors down as one of the best teams, or maybe just best companies, to work for. On Tuesday, Warriors owner Joe Lacob sent the entire front office to the site of Game 3, in Cleveland. He not only chartered a plane for the employees to fly to Cleveland, but the Warriors booked a total of 155 hotel rooms in Cleveland.

The Score had a picture of the happy front office on Twitter Tuesday.

A pretty awesome gesture by the Warriors owner. It’s just too bad that Game 3 ended on a sour note for the Warriors as they lost 96-91 to the Cavs. Presumably the front office is still in town for Game 4, to be held on Thursday and perhaps they’ll get to see a better outcome.

The Warriors are down 2-1 in the series, having beat the Cavs in ORACLE to start, but then dropping the next game with the second OT finish in a row. Stephen Curry had a horrible shooting night, missing 18 of his 23 shots, but he still made the tying layup at the end of regulation as well as putting his team ahead on free throws in OT. He played better in Game 3, putting up 27 points and he especially seemed to heat up late in the game, as did the rest of the team. It wasn’t enough to stop the Cavs though.

The hope for the Warriors is that they can build off their strong finish. They scored 36 of their 91 total points in the fourth quarter, giving some hope that they may be down, but not yet out.
