The Philadelphia Warriors were among the first BAA teams. In 1962, they moved to the Bay Area and changed their name to the San Francisco Warriors. In 1970, they changed their name to the Golden State Warriors. As the Golden State Warriors, the franchise has only won one championship, in 1975. That team was coached by former Warrior Al Attles, and led on the court bu Rick Barry, Jamaal Wilkes, and Phil Smith. The team had another successful string of wins in the late 80s/early 90s with the high scoring trio of point guard Tim Hardaway, guard Mitch Richmond, and forward Chris Mullin (collectively known as Run T-M-C).
The Warriors and C.D. Chivas USA of MLS currently are the only major league franchises in the United States to exclude the name of their city, metro area, state or region from the team's name.
Warriors fans hoped that 2005-2006 would finally be the season that the team ended their playoff drought.
On April 5, the Warriors were eliminated from playoff contention with a 114-109 overtime loss to the Hornets, extending their playoff drought to 12 seasons.
