BRIEF: Golden State Warriors brass to players: Stop singing cocaine song

Dec. 09--The Golden State Warriors like to sing after a victory and with the best record in the league (18-2), there has been plenty of singing.

Warriors center Marreese Speights posts videos of the team celebrating a win on his Instagram page.

But their favorite anthem has hit a snag.

The players were told by team management they may no longer post videos of themselves celebrating after a win by all singing along to O.T. Genasis' "CoCo," a team source confirmed.

The song is a direct reference to cocaine. If there was any question about the lyrics -- "I got it for the low low. I'm in love with the coco" -- the music video makes it quite clear the song is about the drug.

"We wish we could do the coco thing but they said we can't nomore sorry!!! #dubnation!!!," Speights tweeted.

Still, the team has found a way around the ruling -- kind of.

Stephen Curry posted a picture to his Instagram Monday night of teammates holding the cereal Cocoa Krispies after their 102 -- 86 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

"Good win fellas! Ready to get Back to the Bay! #ImInLove," Curry said in the caption of the picture.
