An hour before Game 5, as the usual packed crowd in the lower bowl gathered to watch Stephen Curry go through his warmup routine, the Jumbotron in the arena played a montage that detailed Golden State’s rise as a franchise in recent years, from the Monta Ellis trade to owner Joe Lacob being booed by the home crowd during popular player and unpopular general manager Chris Mullin’s jersey retirement ceremony, to last year’s unexpected title run....

“Facebook’s ruling is an insult to the record-setting 75M people, plus many others, who voted for us in the 2020 Rigged Presidential Election,” the former president said in a statement. “They shouldn’t be allowed to get away with this censoring and silencing, and ultimately, we will win.
