Hayes Valley and Civic Center put you by the opera for Sunday's matinee; Mission Bay is closest to Chase Center for both Warriors games; the Mission puts you on Monday's procession route but expect evening closures. Skip Marina/Van Ness-area hotels Sunday morning if you need to drive out before noon. https://www.sftravel.com/neighborhoods
