many traditions in this sport, some long time and some recent. one of the recent ones is the team picture. one of the long time ones is the conn smythe trophy and then the presentation of the cup. and we'll just remind you, there is a little mystery about that. but meanwhile, the celebration goes on and it will last all summer. until they put the engraving tool to the old 122-year-old trophy. teravainen is one they'll need to be careful on. kane probably not so much. jonathan toews and pierre. >> pierre: this is the time we've had the opportunity to do this. the first time in chicago. you're at the top of the nhl mountain. how's the view? >> i can't -- it doesn't feel real right now.

it's unbelievable. it feels like a dream. every time we do it it gets better and better. there's a bunch of guys in the room now looking for their first one. you want to do it for them more than anything. it's an amazing feeling. >> pierre: before the season started, we talked about your nhl dream going back to your hometown in winnipeg. you've seen the dream three times. how different is it this time? >> i don't know. we keep wanting it more and more. this is what it's all about. this is why we play the game for the group in the room and all the great fans in chicago. it unites the whole city. like i said it doesn't get any better here. >> pierre: all right, jonathan, go enjoy your teammates. doc. >> mike: they continue the enjoyment. joel quenneville must find june the 15th special. 15 years ago he got the jack adams award as coach of the year for st. louis.

his mother gloria made the trip from windsor for ceremony. 27 years ago today he was drafted by the maple leafs. when he returned to windsor with gloria, the neighbors had a huge banner in front of the house, thrilled that he was drafted by their favorite team. windsor is close to detroit but i guess there is a boundary there in some cases. scottie bowman was out there with him just a moment ago. one of the stalwart defensemen brent seabrook is with pierre. >> pierre: hourw does this one feel? >> we've been lucky enough to win three. every time we've won it it seems to get better. we battled tonight, tampa bay is a hell of a team. we have to watch out for them,

they'll be doing what we've been doing for the last six years so we have to watch out for them. it's been a lot of fun. they're a great team. can't say enough about it. was there ever a point this playoff series where you were concerned this wasn't going to happen? >> you always have ups and downs throughout the playoffs. i think we played some really good games early, i thought we had some tough games early. for the most part we have a good team. we know what we can do what we're capable when we play how we're supposed to play. the boys all stuck it out, got together. we wanted to do this again so we gave it all we had. >> pierre: i think back to game six here against anaheim and game seven. what was said on your flight going out west because most of the people didn't think that was going to happen. >> we're not flying all this way to lose. we did it last year. we had a tough ending against l.a. and we wanted to come out this year and be right here be

right -- have a chance to win the stanley cup. so we were able to pull out a big series win against anaheim and we were able to do what we can right here. >> pierre: you've won the stanley cup for the third time my friend. go relax and enjoy your teammates. >> awesome, thank you very much. doc. >> mike: you just saw the chairman rocky wirt celebrating with some of his employees on the ice. a great deal took place very kickly quickly once he took the reins of the club. it sure is a full house now. a legislateendary manager once said you see this quarter? it was once a nickel. there are a lot of quarters being made with the sale of

there, well over 2,000 of them. weighs 35 pounds and it is remarkable with hernias and other injuries players and executives have been able to lift that 35 pounds even under doctor's warnings to not lift more than two. eddie olczyk has said that duncan keith will win this. it can go to a player on the losing team but since 1976 it has not gone to a losing skater. odds are eddie's right. >> eddie: up see paul goodman, the strength and conditioning coach talking to duncan keith. you see the c.r. on his chest, they lost one of their long-time

equipment men, clint rice during this season. i'm sure he is smiling down on his team. >> as seen in commercials and as scenes in announcements that pertain to the keeper of the cup. the conn smythe is there and the voice of gene honda. >> announcer: ladies and gentlemen, direct your attention to the ice for the presentation of the conn smythe trophy to the most valuable player of the 2015 stanley cup playoffs. >> tonight this is truly the house on madison. let's congratulate the tampa bay lightning and chicago blackhawks on a great stanley cup final.

peace on the streets regardless if the warriors win or lose. we've seen problems after the giants' recent titles. as for the players, the chartered flight leaving earlier today out of oakland. at this hour they are in cleveland, ohio. >> we have team cornell medical college for you tonight. more with the team. but we begin with jodi hernandez. and tomorrow night's game in cleveland is in cleveland. but oracle already sold out, too. >> more than 17,000 seats here at oracle arena will be full tomorrow night. there are a few tickets available for resale, but it'll cost you. >> curry steps back. oh! >> this was oracle arena last night. and though game six takes place in cleveland, expect warriors ground to be just as electric tomorrow. the oracle viewing party sold out. a handful of resale tickets are going for as much as $800. just to watch the game on a big

needed was a couple of sports drinks and a little down time to refocus on a chance to clinch the title tuesday. warriors arrived in cleveland as you said earlier. behind curry's 37 points putting them in the driver's seat for the franchise's first title in 40 years. with game 6, however, back at quicken loans arena, cavs are far from calling this a series. >> i feel confident because i'm the best player in the world. it's simple. >> he's been amazing to the point some believe he should win the series mvp honors win or lose. can he keep it up tomorrow? while almost averaging a triple double. he's played 44 minutes on sunday with just a single off day before tomorrow's game six. remember after game four james claimed to be gassed out in the fourth quarter of that cavs loss in which he didn't even score in the final 12 minutes. so the warriors want to get it done tuesday in cleveland and

not leave it up to game 7. back to you guys. >> don't want to take any chances, that's for sure. thank you,. last night, king james, you heard him say it there, he's the best player in the planet. so he's confident about his chances. but what do they say? and how does steph curry stack up against lebron. the numbers coming up. another key member of the warriors given an honor off the court. president and c.o.o. welch has been named as the grand marshal for the pride parade. june 28th. he's the country's first prominent openly gay sports executive. he joined the team in 2011 and has also played an instrumental role in the league office. nba's office in new york. after years of being in the closet, why did he finally come out? well, hear it for yourself. you can see our exclusive interview on our website on the

front page nbcbayarea.com. other news now. is it terrorism or simply vandalism? for the past year, someone has been cutting fiberoptic lines in several bay area cities. in fact entire neighborhoods have been without phone service, sometimes for days. but now the feds are part of the investigation. nbc bay area's mark matthews have more on why some wonder if it's an inside job. >> the fbi says the first attack happened here at 7th and gracen in berkeley on july 6th of last year. the owner of that restaurant across the street remembers it well. >> i remember we had lost our phone and had been having power outages in the neighborhood. a lot of us had been having that. >> on that same day and the day after, fiber lines were cut in two locations in fremont and in walnut creek and san jose. this past february more cables at two locations in fremont and then last monday and tuesday there were lines cut in alamo, fremont and walnut creek again.

>> that's the question of a lot of people are asking. the fbi is not talking saying it's a local police matter but the local police are referring us to the fbi. >> seems like the only thing they would do with it is make damage. >> yeah. >> i wonder if they were mad at somebody. >> a long time employee at at&t says she's heard of this happening before. >> it's probably an inside job from disgruntled employees. >> they would do that? >> if they're disgruntled. >> have they done similar things in the past? >> they've done. >> the last time this did happen was in 2009 was when vandals chopped through fiber lines that cut land line service to 50,000 customers. a spokeswoman for at&t is down playing any sort of union dispute saying the contract doesn't even expire until some time next year and the communication workers of america, they have no comment.

reporting from berkeley, mark matthews, nbc bay area news. >> thank you, mark. we should let you know also the fbi says this case is not related to the sabotage of pg & e's metcalfe substation in 2013. in that case someone cut optic cables causing widespread telephone outages. a short time later, several shots fired at the transformer and that led pg & e to improve security at all of the substations. a $15 million settlement. today, a long running legal drama has ended. involves the molestation of young school children a teacher, and a principal. the story broke earlier today and joining us with the interview with one of the parents. robert? >> reporter: well for the parents, the criminal case was traumatic and they say reliving it through the civil trial has also been painful. tods settlement came the day before the children were to take

the stand. today in superior court in san jose, the parents of four young girls molested by their teacher agreed to a $15 million settlement with the evergreen school district. it's the closing chapter of a legal case that started at the o.b. whaley elementary school. craig chandler was convicted of lewd conduct. the case drew national attention when the principal was convicted of a misdemeanor for not reporting a child's complaints or her own suspicions to authorities. the mother of one victim, who we are not showing on camera to protect her daughter says the district's lack of action led to the civil lawsuit. >> i need everybody out there to know that it is very important to listen to their children. >> the parents say they accepted the $15 million settlement because their children were scheduled to take the stand tomorrow. and the mother we talked to said their legal point had been made. >> it doesn't stop for us as a

family. and it will never stop for my daughter. >> it illustrates how a school district from top to bottom has failed these children. the lack of training, the lack of knowledge as to what to look for as far as a pedophile in your midst. >> reporter: now as part of the settlement, the parents agreed there would be no more legal action. the school district declined to comment except to confirm the settlement and express sympathy toward the children involved. live in san jose nbc bay area news. >> robert thank you. still ahead on this prime time newscast here on nbc bay area, beware of the car part that local thieves are targeting. also -- >> michelle roberts outside great america where investigators are trying to figure out what happened on friday leading up to that accident. coming up hear what officials are saying tonight about when the ride may open. and good evening, i'm meteorologist.

a dozen passengers got sick on a flight from fi airsickness bags needed. a dozen passengers got sick on a long flight. from fiji to los angeles today. the passengers on flight 810 all experiencing severe stomach problems. now, there were ambulances waiting for them. you can see they're on the tarmac once the plane landed at l.a.x. only one person went to the hospital. none of the six passengers were actually traveling together. but they all stayed at the exact same hotel in fiji. so what exactly happened on the roller coaster at great america? a serious accident last friday. and tonight, we're getting answers. as it stands right now, the flight deck roller coaster remains closed.

nbc bay area's michelle roberts. summer vacation this is peak season. a lot of people curious about what's happening there. >> still unknown at this point. cal osha says the ride will remain closed until the investigation is complete. they say that's for a couple of reasons. to preserve any evidence there may be on the ride as well as make sure it's safe. >> reporter: it's been closed since the accident on friday night. sources say that's when an employee reached down to pick up a cell phone off the platform and was hit by the train, pulling into the flight deck station. a passenger on the ride also suffered a hand injury. >> i hope the guy's okay and i hope that they figure out that the ride is safe and that they can open up again. >> the employees' injuries are being described as traumatic. and that person's name is not being released. today, cal osha says they interviewed witnesses.

>> on any given ride, there is, you know most likely it's going to be safe. but, you know we're always looking to make sure things are safe. there are many parts of a ride that are -- they have to remain safe in terms of the procedures and the equipment. and, you know the structure and the operations and everything about it. >> park officials have indicated the ride was functioning properly on friday. today, park goers told us the accident won't stop them from climbing aboard the ride in the future. >> we were kind of bummed it was closed today. >> well cal osha says flight deck and every other ride at the park has passed all the inspections this year. they haven't given any details about when it may open. only saying it could be weeks or even months. reporting live in santa clara, michelle roberts, nbc, bay area news. >> thank you. we want to update you know. the victim in another roller coaster accident has died. a 10-year-old passed out on friday night after riding the revolution at six flags magic

west nile virus is returning to the bay area dead birds are now testing positive for the virus. the total of 23 birds have shown up in several counties. you can see the map here. across the bay area. this includes santa clara, san mateo and marin counties. dead birds are often the first sign that west nile is active in our area. this could be a particularly bad year for the virus because of our droughts. >> what happens is the mosquitos are looking for whatever water is nearby. and then you also have the birds that are congregating in that same area. >> well make sure there's no standing water on your property to avoid giving mosquitos pools to breathe in. i want to show you this video of a grass fire along 280. firefighters quickly knocked it down. it was running around northbound 280 in los altos hills. a couple of lanes had to be closed while firefighters tried to bring down the blaze. traffic is back to normal and

it should be out. it was a little blustery today, that added to the situation for firefighters. >> yeah, let's bring in jeff ranieri ranieri. how are you doing? >> oh, good. you can see we didn't capture the sunset tonight. a live from the underground camera right now across the south bay looking absolutely beautiful. and across the rest of the bay area holding on at 56 in san francisco with areas of fog, 61 throughout the peninsula and 60 right now in the south bay. how about tomorrow morning's forecast? the fog is going to stay put in the morning hours. not only that but low clouds extending all the way down to the south bay and 56 to start. 54 in the east bay, and the coldest start in the north bay with 51 as that wind kicks up it's likely going to feel like the upper 40s. let's get a look at the 24-hour temperature change. numbers are still running about three to four degrees cooler compared to this time last night. so for a lot of you, that had been stuck with that super hot weather the past couple of weeks, this has been nice for you to open up the windows back in the east bay, let the breeze

come on in and enjoy. now, the reason why today was so comfortable, we had that westerly wind with us 10 to 20 miles per hour. and that really helps you kick up the fog machine today. now, you're going to be able to see here throughout california, the fog is very extensive here from the northern end of california all the way down to the southern end. and right now, it's continuing to move right here through the east bay beginning to enter the north bay and eventually we'll see low clouds enter the south bay, as well. for that reason alone, tomorrow is still going to stay well at least on the cooler side at the plead coastline. here's how it looks. 80 in san jose sunny skies, morgan hill and gilroy mid to upper 80s. at the immediate coastline for the peninsula, it's going to stay fogged in and pacifica with 63. but palo alto sunny skies and 79. san francisco, a mixed bag. forest hill keeps that fog the longest. for the marina breaks of sunny. and the mission, 68 with partly cloudy skies by the afternoon.

for the north bay, east bay and the tri-valley, sunny skies expected in napa and santa rosa but will likely hang on to clouds in the early afternoon. and for the east bay. pushing up to the upper 80s tomorrow, 87 in livermore, pleasanton expecting 85. now, it is going to get hotter in the forecast. let's round things out with that. and saturday in the south bay, 90 degrees by sunday 93. this ridge of high pressure will produce some hotter weather in san francisco as the fog breaks down by sunday's forecast 78, and in the tri-valley unfortunately, more hot weather coming our way. we do want to finish it out tonight with something of note. if you're doing any traveling or have the connecting flight through texas, we are now tracking tropical storm bill. this is newly named over the last couple of hours. winds at 50 miles per hour. this moves onshore tomorrow morning, winds at 60 miles per hour. it's not the wind that's going

to be the biggest concern. it's the flooding threat. check out this bull's eye around dallas. 4 to 9 inches of rainfall possible. major flooding flash flooding is likely. it's going to be a serious situation. if you're traveling through texas, this is going to disrupt your plans, you guys. >> thank you, jeff. still ahead here at 8:00. the shallow water shark attacks that left two teenagers seriously injured. we're going to hear from the beach goers who may have saved their lives. also -- >> and i'm sam brock. coming up next on reality check, lebron james says he's absolutely the best player in the world. well, we're going to look at fancy stats like rpm and p.e.r. to let you know what the numbers say about who is really king on the court.

we're on early tonight because of the stanley cup finals on nbc bay area. might have seen it a short while ago. the blackhawks won the stanley cup title. what you're looking at now is our nbc chopper in chicago.

that below is the celebration. thousands of people down below near wrigley field where the cubs play baseball. not too far away from the arena. peaceful celebrations it's about 10:40 local time. maybe we'll be seeing some of this tomorrow night or friday night here in oakland. earlier in the newscast we mentioned the warriors arriving in cleveland tonight ready to tip off for tomorrow against lebron james. interesting debate, is king james really the king? >> well, lebron says he is the best player in the world. but is he really? and where does that leave steph curry? reality check. >> curry steps back! >> steph curry broke the cavaliers' back in game five. crushing crucial three after crucial three. lebron james unconvinced about curry's greatness. >> i feel confident because i'm the best player in the world.

>> is it that simple? do the stats back up his claim? >> so there are two really effective stats looking at a player's true value. one is p.e.r. which is short for player efficiency rating, which basically looks at stats like points and rebounds and assists to figure out what a numerical value is. the second one is called rpm, real plus minus which tells us how the team is performing when he's on the court. >> here's what we found, staff trumped lebron in player efficiency. steph had the third highest mark in the nba around 28. lebron had the eighth highest. then real plus/minus. how did the teams play? when steph was on the floor, the warriors were plus nine points the best performance in the league. lebron was close at plus 8 1/2 points, third best in the nba, just not as good as steph.

steph's case seems pretty strong. but there's one catch. if you look at only the performance in the postseason with all the chips on the line the scale tips toward lebron. according to espn james' efficiency numbers have provided a pop worth six wins for the cavaliers in the playoffs. curry, meantime comes in second with 5.4 wins. translation, curry is crowned best regular season player. lebron so far, has ruled the playoffs. but only one of the mega stars is walking away with a ring. slam dunk curry. i'm sam brock, that's this edition of "reality check." >> i think he gave the nba title to the warriors. >> and so it goes. >> we hope. well still ahead, quitting in a cloud of controversy. the embattled naacp leader walking away. when she's expected to speak. and he was trying to help. the curious defense coming from a man accused of kidnapping a

3-year-old boy. that story is next. jamie wanted a taste of the real new orleans and we just couldn't say no to that face. then we wanted more of that local flavor so betty says... oh yeah, that's betty. you're going to want to do this alligator thing. and betty didn't lead us wrong. a little later we passed some dancing. and who doesn't like dancing? especially when it's followed by fireworks everyone's nola is different. follow yours.

kidnapping of a three year old boy from the milpitas library. there was a new twist in the kidnapping of a 3-year-old boy from the library. >> the suspect's attorney now says that her client was actually trying to help the boy. joining us now is maryann favro from the hall of justice. >> a parent's worst nightmare, a 3-year-old boy kidnapped from the library earlier this month. just an hour after the abduction, police arrested 23-year-old eddington on felony kidnapping charges his defense attorney says her client actually believed he was helping the boy. >> i don't believe he was medicated at the time of this incident. he believes he knew the child. he had absolutely no tension of harming this child.

>> she says her client took the boy on a vta bus to the station in fremont because he planned to return the child in antioch. a bus driver helped police arrest eddington. >> right now, still a kidnapping and that's how we're proceeding. we'll evaluate at that time. >> if convicted, eddington faces 11 years in prison. there's a possibility he may plead not guilty by reason of insanity when he returns to court in two months. nbc bay area news. >> this is not eddington's first time in court. documents obtained by nbc bay area show he was arrested in downtown los gatos, february 25th for battery. pled no contest to slugging a man in the face and was sentenced to two years probation. is it money well spent?

$117 billion budget approved for california. the democrats have to convince the governor about this. that budget adds $749 million in spending above what the governor wants democrats say the plan sets aside money for a rainy day, pays down debt and boosts spending on public schools. all uh but one republican voted against this budget. and that republican that did vote for it was scott wilk. wilk says he voted accidentally yes, because he was distractioned by facebook. the assembly is allowed to lawmakers to change their official votes. her racial identity in question, she's stepped down as leader as the spoe can chapter of the naacp. after years of claiming to be partially black, her parents have revealed she is in fact white with no african-american ancestry at all. now, she says and maintains she still identifies as black but

resigns saying it's in the best interest of the naacp. her parents say they've offered their support, although they're estranged from their daughter. meanwhile, backed her saying racial identity is not a qualifying or disqualifying standard for being part of that organization. tomorrow she's expected to break her silence in an exclusive interview on the "today" show. that's right after today in the bay that starts at 7:00 a.m. seems like old times, clinton versus bush. but this time hilary against jeb. it's finally official. jeb bush is in. steve handelsman from washington. >> and i've decided, i'm a candidate for president of the united states of america. >> jeb bush made his formal declaration in florida casting himself as a former governor who proved he was a fixer.

>> we make florida number one in job creation and number one in business creation. 1.3 million new jobs. >> bush is a is spanish speaker married to a latina in a diverse state. his campaign kickoff video shows championing minorities and the working class. >> bush does get slammed from the right. >> on issues like immigration where conservatives have questioned where he is in his position. i think he's not going to fluctuate on that. >> 11 republicans declared a run for the white house, bush is pulling at the top. he's got last name recognition, but neither joined bush in his call. and the new logo drops the family name. but bush connections have paid off, literally. >> probably the most money of any of the gop candidates. close to $100 million. >> he looked presidential to
