hugging one another and tears here. this growing memorial is especially personal to one san francisco woman. she is the former partner of orlando shooting victim k.j. morris. the two remained best friends who spoke every day. today she shared with us how she would like k.j. to be remembered. she says she'll always remember k.j. morris's smile. >> from the first day i met her, she had the smile. i knew she was the perfect person for me. >> reporter: after meeting in 2014 in boston t couple relocated to hawaii. >> i had an opportunity to come back here for school. me and her discussed it. she decided this would be a wonderful time to go to orlando to be there for her mom and be there for her grandmother who is 85 years old. she loves them very, very much. >> reporter: they continued to speak every day including hours before the shooting. >> i sent her a text message. she wrote me back and said i miss you, too. i'm thankful that i have that.

apple ceo tim cook took a moment to acknowledge the people who died. >> it was senseless, unconscionable act of terrorism and hate aimed at dividing and destroying. the apple community is meade up of people from all around the world. we celebrate our diversity. >> before the warriors tip-off tonight, there will be a moment of silence for the victims in orlando. this has been a personal time of reflection forward yors team president rick welts who is also gay. >> rick weltz will be here as usual cheering on the warriors too night. his mind is also on the massacre and he told me he hopes lesbians and gays are more committed than ever to standing up and making sure yotheir lives and stories e heard. >> we have to take moments like this to gather or strength and

go forward. >> rick wealths is president of the warriors. he's not talking about his team. he's talking about his lgbt community. welts is the first openly gay nba executive and reflecting on the horrific attack on the nightclub in orlando. >> we have to remain strong and know that the result of acts like this can't be that the terrorists win. >> reporter: welts lives his life out loud. last year he was celebrity grand marshal of the san francisco pride parade. last week he and his partner visited the white house for a celebration of lgbt rights. they're seen here with nancy pelosi. welts says the president's remarks then seem prophetic now. >> there was a lot of excitement about the accomplishments. he also gave a warning that it was something that had to be protected and the fight wasn't over. his words came back to me very

department is telling abc 7 news. >> here is a live look at oracle arena. our warriors pregame coverage gets under way.

where the fans, wearing their strength in numbers shirts t warriors had the opportunity to celebrate their consecutive nba title but they have to do it without draymond green. welcome back inside oracle arena. larry beil here. we're 19 minutes and change before abc begins their pregame coverage of game five between the warriors and cavaliers. the big story line is the one we've been talking about for a couple days. the suspension of draymond green which came down yesterday. so he will not play in game five tonight. the nba looked at his altercation with lebron james in game four and issued a flagrant one foul. with four flagrant points, that's an automatic one-game suspension. so they have to find a way to win without one of their most important players. >> people have feelings and people's feelings get hurt even if they're called a bad word. i guess his feelings just got hurt. we've all been called plenty of

bad words on the basketball court before. some guys just react to it differently. >> klay said i guess he just got his feelings hurt. >> i'm not going to commented on what klay said because i know where it can go from this sit-in. >> back live, i'm joined by -- draymond green! wait a second. it's only mike schuman. you'll be seeing a lot of fat heads with draymond on there tonight. did the nba make the right or wrong call suspending draymond green? >> as a warrior fan, i'm devastated that he won't be here. with everything he's accomplished and the heart and saul he brings out here every night, that's devastating. the nba has never changed a call

of this magnitude. at this point it's inconsequential to focus on that. you have to focus on whether or not they have a chance to do something historic, and that's win a championship. >> what really came back to bite him was in round one the tickdown of michael beasley. that was a flagrant point that wouldn't have gotten him to four. who has to step up to overcome the loss of draymond? i know you were inside listening to steve kerr. >> he said you're going to see some rotations. andrew bogut and o'donnell would agree with that. you a lot of big guys that can work into the rotation and make a difference. this is going to be a total team effort tonight, rallying around draymond. we talked about how bad draymond must feel. he let himself down and his teammates down. >> there's nothing that can be -- when you spend your entire year and you can do something so historic, but to be an integral part of that as you have been

all year, this is something for draymond to take note of. jim barnett said never put an official in a position to make a call. you know you're close. you have to be more mindful of that. this will make him a better player. this hurts and it hurts for all bay area fans and anybody who admired this game. at this stage, to take a player that is so vital to the success of the warriors out of rotation, it's heartbreaking. >> i've got to wonder. you heard klay say, i guess some people are sensitive with their feelings. i've called you worst things in our sports department. >> you have, you have. >> is that what we're -- >> you played in the nfl. the guys must have called you all kinds of things. >> i talked the whole time, too. you want to try to get the guy out of his game and hurt you instead of defend you. we talked to paul pierce, a lot of different players. they thought it was a joke because they've heard a lot

worse on the court. >> are you that offended by one word? >> no. i think what the nba has done is set precedence. there's been a lot of conversation on the courts, but i've never seen a situation where a player makes a plea. coaches make it all the time. it never seems that has been taken into consideration. if, in fact, the nba decided this is how to make the decision that what lebron says has weight beyond the court, that is setting precedence moving forward. >> let's just what happened it up. at the end of the night, are you going to be drenched in champagne and covered with confetti? that's a normal -- >> coming into this game, well talked about it on game four, they're going to win. it's just a matter of what game. cleveland won't beat them three straight. without draymond, i think it opens up another door. >> i think it's going to be

close for three-quarters and the warriors will win. >> i'm not going to say just yet. listen to more of the warriors reaction to the situation with draymond. >> he's not happy, no. anybody in that situation, you can't expect him to be okay with the decision or whatnot. i know he's going to give us positive energy. he's going to support us as a team the best way he can. >> we know it's going to kill him not being out there, we'll go out there and win for him and try to make a statement on our own floor. >> joined by espn's mark spears. you've been writing an online diary. excellent timing the have draymond as the subject of that. he's got to be just a ball of emotion today. >> i know the day before the suspension came out yesterday on saturday night, he kind of felt from what i was told after speaking the the nba that it wasn't going to be good news for him. he was really depressed, almost

brought him to tears. he knew he couldn't be here with what he calls his brothers. he's not going to lose a lot of money. he's not worried about losing the money, he's losing that he'll miss playing in game five, one of the most memorable games in his life has been taken away. it's going to be really tough for him to watch. >> an interesting scene if war yors are watching tonight. draymond is watching the game from the baseball stadium where the a's will be playing and race across for the celebration because he's not allowed to be physically inside oracle arena. it could be the greatest sprint ever. you're saying bolt, mike, charging through the tunnels. >> in street clothes, running to the podium, grabbing the trophy. it could very well happen. >> one thing you know for sure, this crowd is going to be as wild as it's ever been. i think every time lebron james touches the ball, he's going to

haer it fr hear it from the fans. >> no doubt. it's already loud here. the main reason is because draymond green won't be here, the lebron factor. the biggest of them all, there could be a championship here. >> i think it's going to be crazy. lebron is going to be -- you're going to be hearing howls from the second he comes out. >> the loudest he's had it, the toughest he's had it is when he came back to cleveland for the first time when he was playing for miami in 2010. he does have a tough start -- >> it's going to get louder and louder and louder. >> no matter what, any time he touches the ball. >> final thoughts, do the warriors get it done tonight? >> i think emotions will get them focused, have them playing their best. harrison barns has to have a good game. >> the bench has to figure out how to step up. typically you can do that at home. >> mark, as always, thanks for

the time. >> thank you. warriors definitely need their strength in numbers tonight. by the way, don't forget to follow our crew on twitter. the man with too many numbers in his handle, adonal foyle is afoyle3131. so much energy in the building tonight as we count down to game five between the warriors and the cavs. >> really exciting. great job. look forward to your coverage all night. >> if the warriors win tonight, the oakland police say they're ready in case celebrations get out of hand. >> abc news reporter cornell has more on that story. >> watch party about to happen at lucas tap room. three big screen tvs, two big rooms to watch everything. these guys are here.

police will be out in force on the streets tonight keeping everyone safe. the championship could be near. >> oakland is the city on a brink of victory. the ws looking for a second straight nba championship. carlos is ready. >> i hope there's a lot of joy. it's been a lot of joy the last few years to watch these guys play. i hope we celebrate in that way for sure. >> this was w nation pouring out of oracle last year when the team won the championship. there were impromptu party, some got out of hand. >> we anticipate a victory. with that victory comes celebration. >> oakland police want the party to be safe. these police fans will be transporting officers across the city tonight. >> all of our available officers and personnel working. every officer available, will be in areas where we know activity

♪ >> back live at oracle arena. i wish i had that suit. i was eyeing that suit. >> that's you. >> but then i decided, ah, probably some people that wouldn't be thrilled back at 900 front street if that was my attire. we're five minutes away to abc's pregame coverage. you know who i'm talking about. >> i'm thinking about you in that suit. >> maybe for the postgame show. >> we're going to make predictions. let's start with you adonal. you want to give me the score? >> i don't want to brag, but i'm 2-0. >> that's true. >> he picked game four, too. he nailed it. >> but i think being home, this is going to be a historic night. just imagine what it's going to be like when they win. there won't be a roof on this

a while and the warriors, not only are they going to win tonight. they're going to destroy the cavaliers on this court and this crowd is going to be like we have never, ever seen her before. >> you think they'll rally around draymond? >> as steve kerr said in the pregame conference, this team lax in edge. he said we have an edge tonight. we have the edge for sure. >> they will not be soft. >> no. they will not be in this game. >> all right. don't forget. complete coverage after the game. perhaps champagne and confetti coming down. we'll have it for you live. schu will have all the postgame interviews right after the game on abc 7. we're getting pumped. adonal wants to play. >> he brought his uniform. >> it doesn't match the current ones, so they're to tnot going let him in. >> let's go back to the studio. >> it should be a fun place to be tonight.
