>> you say this surprised you? >> we stunk the last two years. i don't know if you noticed that. to be back to where we were is incredible and testament to these guys. amazing mentoring from our older to younger guys. a beautiful mix. >> talk about coaching a humble super star stephen curry. he decided to miss free throws the be one of the guys. was it his idea? >> he missed one and you will say he missed free throws. >> he fits in with the group that you elevate above. when you are leaders and so much apart of the mix it's tough to beat. >> with stef it's the combination of talent and he

makes everybody want to win for him and with him. one guy was an gray. because of what he meant to our guys to our younger guys and older guys it's not easy. andre helped us get through it all. it was a great mix and good mix of vets and young guys it'd was truly an organize nal success this year it's beautiful to work with everybody. >> four championships as a coach and one for the other thumb. >> absolutely. >> give it up for steve kerr. [ applause ] >> fans know this and on tv we look for this. there is nothing better than a wiggens smile. we started to see that more

often. let's have andrew and green come up here. first year all-star first championship and best basketball you played on the biggest stage. how rewarding for you. >> it was great. now we celebrate. >> whatever you have to say go ahead and do it. let me get out-of-the-way. [ applause ] everyone is nervous right now. >> i'm trying to think of the

most controversial thing i could say. this is great. i don't know what do you want me to tell you we are better than everybody. [ beeps] that. this has been an amazing year. i told y'all not to let us win a championship. i warned y'all. i'll continue to destroy people on twitter i have been. and instagram stories. i love this group and when i say the group the entire group. there were times we won a championship and everything didn't have to be aligned. for this to work every single person up here had to be aligned. it's so special and you talk about which championship means more. the reality is every single

one has it's own journey. i was numb because of the ger any this was. what you appreciate for the journey is the people you go through it with. what brings me the most joy everybody thinks i'm talking [ beeps] what brings me the most joy since i won my first one is seeing the guys who won it the first time. in your journey you want that feeling back. the first time you do it you want that feeling back. you never get it again. the only way to get it is feel it through wiggens. feel it through pull, porter, belly, moses. d. lee. this is not d. lee's first time around. you feel it through the guys

and that's how you get the sensation again. i'd like to say thank you you all and as always [ beeps] everybody else. >> i am assuming andrew has nothing to add. let's bring up stephen curry and clay thompson. last time we won this stef gave a speech and how important the fans was and the journey with his brothers and getting to the mountaintop and clay said whatever he just said. i'll start with clay instead. 941 days. when you came back in the cleveland game did you have an idea how much people loved you

and appreciated you and we missed you? >> i mean. [ applause ] >> that goes both ways. i love being a resident of the bay area. i mean, just really mature draymond. he has the maturity level of a third grader. just seeing everybody in the neighborhood so excited and standing ovation from the chef and waiters. that's what it is about the little wins. they would tell me about the little wins during my rehab. that's something i would take for the rest of my life. just the small things in life that inspired me to keep going. whether it's taking a picture with an old lauddy lady r

young kid. dub nation has no bounds and we have fans from all walks of life. [ applause ] >> if you get a second bulldog would it be named ca nnoli. >> i was watching a lot of chris farley videos. i would put-on semipro or chris tucker. me and peter are big friend people. >> stef, to win game six you were as emotional as i ever saw you. you cried on the court. >> who cries on the basketball court. no crying in basketball. >> tell us about being overwhelmed in there? >> tell me about what that meant. >> i think everybody that's been said on the stage if you

say it out loud or internalize it you carry the journey with you every single day. to know what we have been through and my brother went through for almost three years. what we went through as a team to retool, regroup, rejuvenate what we had. just like taking snapshots of the last three years all of that came out. once we change buildings and carry the championship dna with us. the emotion was everything i got to the real questions what will they say now. >> i don't know if it makes you goodnow. i have to play for coach kerr and go to paris.

>> it's just amazing. an amazing feeling. everybody that has a part in that is the most important thing that trophy is nice. >> finish it off for andre andre and draymond. finish off the parade before we jump into cars with the kind of thought and o ohmage to fans. >> we have grown up in y'alls eyes. from 2015 when we wondered what shaving cream was because we didn't have the ability to grow that stuff and know what we have carried the last eight years. how cool is it. 7 years to the date from game six of 2015 to game six of

2022. [ applause ] >> the exact same day we celebrate another championship. to know, we represent you guys. the life that you give us. the inspiration. the free males meals and standing ovations in the kitchen. >> i love those. all of that matters. this is what it's about. entertaining you guys and giving you something to cheer for. it's giving us the opportunity to go through amazing things that we haven't done in history and representing the entire bay area. it means a lot. dray went on a vacation but for us to know we have all been here the entire time and try to continue to build this. we are back having a practice raid in san francisco. >> before we wrap-up i need

your leadership. all of you to organize the team photo. let's get it done. one final photo. get on the tv cameras. get all of your instagram stuff. line it up, here it is. >> roughly five years, i was working as a high school teacher, and i decided to take my students on a surfing field trip. the light bulb went off in my head, and i realized i could do much more for my students taking them surfing than i

could as their classroom teacher, and that is when the idea for the city surf project was born. >> working with kids in the ocean that aren't familiar with this space is really special because you're dealing with a lot of fear and apprehension but at the same time, a lot of excitement. >> when i first did it, i was, like, really scared, but then, i did it again, and i liked it. >> we'll get a group of kids who have just never been to the beach, are terrified of the idea, who don't like the beach. it's too cold out, and it's those kid that are impossible to get back out of the water at

the end of the day. >> over the last few years, i think we've had at least 40 of our students participate in the city surf project. >> surfing helped me with, like, how to swim. >> we've start off with about two to four sessions in the pool before actually going out and surfing. >> swimming at the pool just helps us with, like, being, like, comfortable in the water and being calm and not being all -- not being anxious. >> so when we started the city surf project, one of the things we did was to say hey, this is the way to earn your p.e. credits. just getting kids to go try it was one of our initial challenges for the first year or two. but now that we've been doing it three or four years, we have a group of kids that's consistent, and the word has spread, that it's super fun,

that you learn about the ocean. >> starting in the morning, you know, i get the vehicles ready, and then, i get all the gear together, and then, i drive and go get the kids, and we take them to a local beach. >> we usually go to linda mar, and then occasionally ocean beach. we once did a special trip. we were in capitola last year, and it was really fun. >> we get in a circle and group stretch, and we talk about specific safety for the day, and then, we go down to the water. >> once we go to the beach, i don't want to go home. i can't change my circumstances at home, but i can change the way i approach them. >> our program has definitely been a way for our students to find community and build friends. >> i don't really talk to friends, so i guess when i started doing city surf, i

started to, like, get to know people more than i did before, and people that i didn't think i'd like, like, ended up being my best friends. >> it's a group sport the way we do it, and with, like, close camaraderie, but everybody's doing it for themselves. >> it's great, surfing around, finding new people and making new friendships with people throughout surfing. >> it can be highly developmental for students to have this time where they can learn a lot about themselves while negotiating the waves. >> i feel significantly, like, calmer. it definitely helps if i'm, like, feeling really stressed or, like, feeling really anxious about surfing, and i go surfing, and then, i just feel, like, i'm going to be okay. >> it gives them resiliency skills and helps them build

self-confidence. and with that, they can use that in other parts of their lives. >> i went to bring my family to the beach and tell them what i did. >> i saw kids open up in the ocean, and i got to see them connect with other students, and i got to see them fail, you know, and get up and get back on the board and experience success, and really enjoy themselves and make a connection to nature at the same time. >> for some kids that are, like, resistant to, like, being in a mentorship program like this, it's they want to surf, and then later, they'll find out that they've, like, made this community connection. >> i think they provided level playing fields for kids to be themselves in an open environment. >> for kids to feel like i can go for it and take a chance

that i might not have been willing to do on my own is really special. >> we go on 150 surf outings a year. that's year-round programming. we've seen a tremendous amount of youth face their fears through surfing, and that has translated to growth in other facets of their lives. >> i just think the biggest thing is, like, that they feel like that they have something that is really cool, that they're engaged in, and that we, like, care about them and how they're doing, like, in general. >> what i like best is they really care about me, like, i'm not alone, and i have a group of people that i can go to, and, also, surfing is fun. >> we're creating surfers, and we're changing the face of surfing. >> the feeling is definitely akin to being on a roller coaster. it's definitely faster than i

think you expect it to be, but it's definitely fun. >> it leaves you feeling really, really positive about what that kid's going to go out and do. >> i think it's really magical almost. at least it was for me. >> it was really exciting when i caught my first wave. >> i felt like i was, like -- it was, like, magical, really. >> when they catch that first wave, and their first lights up, you know -- their face lights up, you know you have them hooked. >> i was on top of the world. it's amazing. i felt like i was on top of the world even though i was probably going two miles an hour. it was, like, the scariest thing i'd ever done, and i think it was when i got hooked

>> this is a huge catalyst for change. >> it will be over 530,000 gross square feet plus two levels of basement. >> now the departments are across so many locations it is hard for them to work together and collaborate and hard for the customers to figure out the different locations and hours of operation. >> one of the main drivers is a one stopper mitt center for -- permit center. >> special events. we are a one stop shop for those three things.

>> this has many different uses throughout if years. >> in 1940s it was coca-cola and the flagship as part of the construction project we are retaining the clock tower. the permit center is little working closely with the digital services team on how can we modernize and move away from the paper we use right now to move to a more digital world. >> the digital services team was created in 2017. it is 2.5 years. our job is to make it possible to get things done with the city online. >> one of the reasons permitting is so difficult in this city and county is really about the scale. we have 58 different department in the city and 18 of them involve permitting. >> we are expecting the residents to understand how the departments are structured to navigate through the permitting processes.

it is difficult and we have heard that from many people we interviewed. our goal is you don't have to know the department. you are dealing with the city. >> now if you are trying to get construction or special events permit you might go to 13 locations to get the permit. here we are taking 13 locations into one floor of one location which is a huge improvement for the customer and staff trying to work together to make it easy to comply with the rules. >> there are more than 300 permitting processes in the city. there is a huge to do list that we are possessing digital. the first project is allowing people to apply online for the a.d.u. it is an accessory dwelling unit, away for people to add extra living space to their home, to convert a garage or add something to the back of the house. it is a very complicated permit.

you have to speak to different departments to get it approved. we are trying to consolidate to one easy to due process. some of the next ones are windows and roofing. those are high volume permits. they are simple to issue. another one is restaurant permitting. while the overall volume is lower it is long and complicated business process. people struggle to open restaurants because the permitting process is hard to navigate. >> the city is going to roll out a digital curing system one that is being tested. >> when people arrive they canshay what they are here to. it helps them workout which cue they neat to be in. if they rant to run anker rapid she can do that. we say you are next in line make sure you are back ready for your

appointment. >> we want it all-in-one location across the many departments involved. it is clear where customers go to play. >> on june 5, 2019 the ceremony was held to celebrate the placement of the last beam on top of the structures. six months later construction is complete. >> we will be moving next summer. >> the flu building -- the new building will be building. it was designed with light in mind. employees will appreciate these amenities. >> solar panels on the roof, electric vehicle chargers in the basement levels, benefiting from gray watery use and secured bicycle parking for 300 bicycles. when you are on the higher floors of the building you might catch the tip of the golden gate bridge on a clear day and good

view of soma. >> it is so exciting for the team. it is a fiscal manifestation what we are trying to do. it is allowing the different departments to come together to issue permits to the residents. we hope people can digitally come to one website for permits. we are trying to make it digital so when they come into the center they have a high-quality interaction with experts to guide then rather than filling in forms. they will have good conversations with our staff.

>> well, emancipation day.ff. happy black independence day. happy juneteenth day. [applause] happy national independence day by joe biden. but my favorite is -- happy freedom day. [applause] bear with me -- happy freedom
