Golden State Warriors Tickets Information

Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors are a professional basketball team based in Oakland, California. The team plays in the NBA. In 1946 the Warriors were founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They were owned by Peter Tyrrell. They won the championship in the league's inaugural 1946-47 season by defeating the Chicago Stags.

The Warriors won their only other championship as a Philadelphia team in the 1955-56 season. The stars of this era in the team's history were Paul Arizin and Neil Johnston the team signed draft pick Wilt Chamberlain in 1959. Known as "Wilt the Stilt," Chamberlain quickly began shattering NBA scoring records and changed the style of play forever. In March 1962 Pennsylvania, Chamberlain scored 100 points against the Knickerbockers.

San Francisco Warriors
Franklin Mieuli purchased the majority shares of the team in 1962, and relocated the franchise to the San Francisco Bay Area, renaming them the San Francisco Warriors, playing most of their home games at the Cow Palace. The Warriors won the 1963-64 Western Division crown, losing the NBA championship series to the Boston Celtics, four games to one.

Golden State Warriors
In 1974-75 the Warriors won their only championship on the West Coast. The Warriors defeated the heavily favored Washington Bullets in a four-game sweep. The Coliseum Arena scheduled other events during the dates of the NBA playoffs. As a result, the Warriors did not play their championship series playoff games in Oakland; rather, they played at the Cow Palace in Daly City.

1995-1999: A period of great effort
Webber, Sprewell and Nelson all three soon left the team, and the organization went into a tailspin. Former GM Garry St. Jean and Dave Twardzik receive much of the blame for the Warriors' struggles since then. St. Jean brought in several players who were well past their primes.

2004-2005: Troubles
Chris Mullin succeeded Garry St. Jean and assumed the title of Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations. Among his first moves was the hiring of three former teammates to help run the organization. Mullin hoped to build the team around Richardson, Dunleavy, and Murphy--complementing them with experience in Derek Fisher, Calbert Cheaney, and Adonal Foyle. The team also drafted 7-foot center Andris Biedrins from Latvia. At the 2005 trading deadline, Mullin further added to the team by acquiring guard Baron Davis, bringing the team its first "superstar" since Mullin himself.

2005-2007: Bouncing back
The Warriors enjoyed a great start to the 2005-06 season. They entered the New Year with a winning percentage over .500, but lost their first five games of 2006 and managed to win only 13 more games through the end of March. Davis played in just 54 games. The injury-prone Davis has not played a full season since the 2001-02 campaign On April 5, 2006; the Warriors were officially eliminated from playoff contention.

2006-07 Playoffs: Making history
The Warriors played their first playoff game in 12 years on April 22, 2007, and beat the Dallas Mavericks 97-85, holding MVP Dirk Nowitzki to just 4-of-16 shooting, making it 6 straight against the NBA best 67 game winners. But the Warriors were crushed by the Mavericks in Game 2 when both Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson were ejected from the game.

Then the Warriors bounced back by winning both Game 3 and 4 at home. A close Game 5 saw the Mavericks eke out a 6-point win of 118-112 to send the 3-2 series back to California. The Warriors, with the help of their explosive third quarter On May 3, 2007, eliminated the Mavs and became the first #8 seed to beat a #1 seed in a seven-game series. This was the Warriors' first playoff series won in 16 years, and their first 7 game series win since 1976. The Warriors went on to play the Utah Jazz in the second round of the 2006-2007 playoffs.
