Barnes recounts star-studded celebration after 'We Believe' Warriors upset Mavs
The "We Believe" Golden State Warriors had a celebration for the books after upsetting the top-seeded Dallas Mavericks in the first round of the 2007 NBA playoffs.
The team celebrated its win with a wild, celebrity-filled party at then-head coach Don Nelson's penthouse, former Warriors forward Matt Barnes told Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times.

As some Twitter users pointed out in replies to Markazi's tweet, it's possible Barnes meant to say actor Woody Harrelson instead of Woody Allen; Harrelson is friends with Nelson and was in attendance for Game 6. Either way, it would make for an entertaining documentary.
The Warriors defeated the Mavs 111-86 in Game 6, becoming the first No. 8 seed to knock off a No. 1 seed in a seven-game series in the NBA.
