Yet another Warriors-centric post. This mural, by a crew called
Illuminaries, is in North Oakland at 27th and Northgate; it went up a week or so ago. I think the signatures are names of those who helped paint the mural. At least I hope so. The Steph Curry pose looked odd to me. Illuminaries says the gesture is "the infamous Mac Dre thizz face." Yea, I don't know what that means either. During the time I was at the mural, two cars pulled up so their occupants could get their pictures taken in front of it. It looks like this will be a mini shrine for the Dub Nation.
