Warriors’ toaster guy inspired the Sacramento Kings to look for their own

A little NBA jealousy, eh?

There’s no doubt that the Golden State Warriors’ toaster guy was the real MVP of the NBA Finals. After a fan named Ronnie had Klay Thompson sign a toaster in March, the Warriors went 31-2, an incredible win streak.

And the Warriors were appreciative too, even inviting toaster guy to their championship parade. Sure, it’s possible they won the NBA title because they added Kevin Durant to an already incredible team ... but it seems way more likely that the toaster is responsible.

And now other NBA teams are taking notice:

Uh.

So the Kings really think they can just come in and steal the Warriors magic in kitchen appliance form? Pretty sure it doesn’t work that way — Harry Potter didn’t become a wizard by replying to a “Help Wanted” Craigslist post.

Also, let’s not forget that the Kings went 32-50 last season. You might need more than a magic toaster to fix that problem. Maybe, like, a magic fridge? Or at least a toaster oven. Or, like, a good basketball team.

That said, if this is the route the Kings REALLY want to go down, they have some viable candidates.

This guy not only had a toaster, but a KINGS toaster! Not bad!

This person has a nice toaster, but it’s for Hamilton Beach? Not familiar with that NBA team.

And then, inexplicably, we have FC Bayern Munich offering something that is not a toaster and not Kings-related, but instead a Bayern Munich waffle maker. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

So hey, good luck, Kings — hope you find the toaster guy of your dreams.

Maybe try Tinder?
