. we were all bemoaning the fact before the injury, we got to wait eight days before the finals. now it's awfully nice we have the time for him to heal. >> how big a deal is this if he can't play? >> oh, it's huge. this is the second best player on the team. he's an all-star. the warriors are the favorite to win the series. vegas odds back that up. but i'm telling you, if klay can't go and you were to tell me he's out for the entire series, it's much more a pick 'em than decisive favorites. there are a lot of very important steps to take to get through this protocol. >> looking historically, we've talked about a best case scenario. what could be the worst case? >> worst case is we see him game 1 next season. we all hope that doesn't happen, but we see this

certainly with football, but you see it in all sports. concussions can be four days, a week, two weeks, a month. you just don't know. obviously, it's good we have the extra week, frank, but that may not be enough. never know. >> and this is now out of the warriors' hands. the nba will decide when or if he gets to play? >> the protocol is very, very specific. the warriors have no say whatsoever. first, you got to ride a stationery bike, jog, noncontact drills, then get on the court. eventually, you need -- you've got to do it all. if you show symptoms during any of this, you go back to the beginning again. you've got to do it step by step. >> you've been covering sports a long time. can you tell us about the awareness around this sort of a head injury, concussion now compared to 15, 20 years ago? >> it's night and day. we see it much more with the nfl, a sport geared so much toward people hitting each other and blows to the head are a daily occurrence in the national football league. so we talk about it more in

football, but it happens in hockey, happens in baseball, and obviously in basketball. basketball's not a noncontact sport. this thing does happen. >> as we've sure seen. >> yeah. >> if the warriors don't have klay thompson, what do they do? >> fortunately, they are very deep. they are still -- they are very deep at the guard position. we'll see a lot more of andre iguodala more of shaun livingston. the difference is, both very capable players, capable ball handlers, passers. the difference is klay thompson is a lights-out, dead-eye shooter. it's such a weapon in the nba, especially when you get into the finals. if the other guys are playing the 2 guard spot, cavaliers don't have to worry as much about the outside shot. it makes defense that much easier. >> thanks very much. >> hope he's ready for game 1. thanks, scott. >> thank you, scott. developing news tonight in newark. a standoff between a man and police making for a very tense afternoon there. police source tells us the man has a 1-year-old child with him. the man has been holed up in an apartment on sycamore street for hours now.

. bart riders have told us trains are cramped, hot and just unpleasant during the commute. tonight, we wanted to take a closer look at the priorities for the aging transit system. one of our reporters, alex

savidge, rode the system with a go pro camera, then showed the video to a bart board member, who says bart is a victim of its own success. >> reporter: it's a frustratingly familiar routine for bart riders. every day, lining up for trains, hoping for a seat, but not holding their breath. >> no. you won't get a seat. but i don't have to go far. >> reporter: getting into san francisco from the east bay only gets more difficult, as you move into the heart of rush hour. 8:00 a.m. at the west oakland station and commuters on a tight schedule are in trouble. >> you can see, things are a lot more crowded here at this hour. people are waiting at all the doors. let's see if we're going to be able to get on this train. look at this. packed. completely packed inside. you can't even get on, huh? >> i am in a rush right now, yeah, but i would rather wait than push. >> reporter: many commuters

skip the overcrowded trains, while others squeeze in, getting up close and personal with their fellow riders. >> they are so crowded. they are usually hot on top of it. >> reporter: on any given day, more than 420,000 people use bart. that's a 30% jump in ridership over the past five years. it's clear, the aging system is struggling to keep pace after coming online in the early '70s. these days, most commuters have the same complaint. >> i think they need to have more trains running to the east bay during the commute hours, because we're packed in there like sardines. >> going to need new trains, need to increase their routes. >> reporter: but that's easier said than done. even bart's higher-ups admit it will be a rough ride before things get better. >> we're suffering from our own success right now. people are coming to bart in record numbers. >> reporter: after experiencing the crush of the morning commute firsthand, we showed our footage to joel keller, a

member of bart's board of directors. >> is that acceptable? >> it's not acceptable. but i do want to say that the riders have it right. >> reporter: but improving service won't be easy or cheap. according to a recent state audit, bart needs to spend roughly $9.6 billion on various improvement projects. the most important are known as the big three. number one, a project already under way is to replace all of the existing railcars and expand the fleet from 669 cars to 775. but after all the testing is done, those new cars won't roll out until 2017. >> it's going to take some time. these cars are expensive, take a long time to go from an idea, manufacturing, into the fleet. >> reporter: number two on bart's to-do list, expand its maintenance facility over the next five years. that will help keep all those cars in service. >> make sure they are available at the adequate numbers to

provide capacity for our riders so they don't -- they don't experience the crushed loads that i witness in those, in your video. >> reporter: the third major project bart needs to get done, replace its outdated train control system. once that project is finished in 2027, trains will be able to run closer together. >> shorten the distance between trains and increase the throughput through the transbay tube, we would expectively add to the capacity both in terms of seats and rides. >> reporter: keller says bart has secured about half the funding it needs to fully upgrade the system, but paying for the rest will be the challenge. bart's hoping an almost 4% fare hike next year will help. the agency will also be asking taxpayers to pitch in, seeking support for a bond measure in the next couple of years. >> how do you convince taxpayers they should pay more? >> i think we need to explain what the alternatives are and i think we have a good story. we have a system now that's 40

years-plus old. if we can make that case, the voters will support us. if we fail to make that case, it's us on. >> reporter: some riders say they are willing to pay more for new trains that run more often, but long-time bart commuter candace schneider is not one of them. >> i just don't get why i would need to pay more, because to me i feel like i'm paying mass amounts of money and getting nothing for it today. >> reporter: as bad as things are today, these trains will only get more crowded. in 10 years, bart predicts 36% more people will pack these cars. >> nobody wants to ride to work like that. it's not good for anybody. >> reporter: cramped riders hope the agency is prepared for what's coming down the tracks. alex savidge, ktvu fox 2news. >> always interesting to me when they call it the aging bart system and i think, wow, i watched it being built! [ laughter ] >> can't be that old! >> i think the same thing! that means the aging train of bill. >> it was so exciting when it

first opened up. i remember riding it all over the place. >> shiny. i remember the weekly readers too, and they had this on the cover in 1963. it was futuristic, like the monorail. i remember going downtown san francisco and they had to dig up market street. >> it was a mess for so long. >> oh, my gosh, i remember my whole childhood. my grandparents lived in the city and we would go see them and seemed like everything was dug up forever. >> it was pretty awesome when it opened. >> and it's still pretty awesome. we're going live to bottle rock. live on stage and they are getting ready to start one of the bands, a band called big talk, one of gasia's favorites. they are going to be kicking off shortly. you get an idea of the crowd out there in terms of -- they are coming on right now. >> look at that. >> this is a dream of mine. always wanted to front a band. i would love to be the guitar

guy right there. [ laughter ] >> i would like to be up on stage watching. >> i would, too. >> can we come back to this after weather and see if they are ripping? let's come bag. weather right now, plenty of cloud cover, but more sunshine today than yesterday. gasia pointed that out. hence, today being a nicer day, slightly warmer. highs tomorrow will be slightly warmer again. it's not a heat wave. it's just warmer than it has been. cool infrared satellite imagery, satellite mix, and you can see the texture in the higher clouds versus the fog up along the coast. fog in san francisco right now, going on. this is outlands festival. it would be foggy in golden gate park. since you're up in napa, you're away from the fog, we got plenty of sunshine, temperatures in napa on the mild side. lots of upper 60s, low 70s. winds are blowing light right now, 20 miles an hour in fairfield, which is light for this time of night. san francisco is 25 miles an hour west wind and these are the current temperatures. there's your 80 in fairfield,

81 in concord. we did click up a couple of degrees in some places. couple places actually dropped down. so this high pressure center sets up. going into tomorrow, you're going to be cool coastal and warmer inland. when i say inland, i'm talking livermore valleys, towards clayton and those areas. 84 degrees. if you keep going east, you'll find yourself some low 90s. so the fog forecast for tomorrow morning, there's the footprint. not too bad. temperatures, watch these reds pop in. that's how you know it's going to be a warmer day. nice-looking temperature profile for your saturday. sunday's going to be slightly cooler. instead of mid-80s like we're seeing in some of the inland bay valleys, low 80s on, we'll see mostly upper 70s with a couple places popping 80 degrees. we'll come up three or four degrees tomorrow. we'll drop down a couple of degrees on sunday. saturday will be the warmest day of the weekend. if you're looking at the five- day forecast, slightly cooler on sunday, plenty of low clouds in the morning, but then gone. then next week stays kind of on

the mild side. is that band going yet? do you know? live camera shot. >> can't hear. don't know. ♪ >> see? >> nice. >> yeah, live in bottle rock here. >> you couldn't ask for better weather, could you? >> no, they got great weather. you know, it can be so hot up there sometimes, it's almost dangerous when you get that many people in an arena all packed in, especially the napa valley, especially in may. here we are, temperatures up there in the mid-60s. >> right. but hydration is still important. water, not wine. [ laughter ] >> people go hard at those festivals. >> yeah, they do. >> then you get the sun going. when you get 100-degree weather, like the alameda county fair. weather looks great up there. friday, saturday, sunday up at bottle rock, i believe weather will be perfect. >> nice. thank you, bill. ahead here, a pregnant woman outraged after she was kicked off a flight out of san francisco. the response now from the airline. >> and some remarkable video of
