The Bay Area sticks together.

Ahead of the Golden State Warriors' opening game of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday, the Oakland Raiders bought a full-page newspaper ad, featuring their late owner Al Davis' famous mantra "Just win, baby" beneath a picture of Draymond Green flexing.

The Raiders have taken out a near-identical ad in support of the Warriors in each of the last three seasons.

Golden State and Cleveland are set to face off in The Finals for the third straight spring. They've split their past two championship matchups, with the Warriors winning in 2015 and the Cavs taking home the title last year after overcoming a 3-1 deficit.
