After completing their third consecutive sweep in the 2017 postseason, the Warriors had a rather subdued celebration Monday night in San Antonio.
T-shirts and hats were adorned, there was a the presentation of the trophy from Chris Mullen.
However, the lack of enthusiasm didn’t mean there wasn’t a funny moment. Take a look at this video of Zaza Pachulia trying to find a hat that fits his head. The Warriors are jumping around him laughing, before Pachulia finally decides to rest the hat on top of his head.
The Finals hat wouldn't fit on Zaza's head. LMAO. pic.twitter.com/x1RGH5WsRj

Pachulia missed the final two games of the Western Conference Finals with a right heel contusion. The injury is considered day-to-day and he’s expected to be fully recovered for Game 1 of the NBA Finals. His big body will be needed against Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love — once the Cavaliers finish off the Celtics.
It should also be noted Pachulia has become a lovable figure within the Warriors’ locker room. He’s able to take jokes thrown at his direction really well, and he even tossed one back at Klay Thompson a few weeks back.
