<P> In the 1964--65 season, the Warriors traded Wilt Chamberlain to the Philadelphia 76ers for Jose Bustillos, and they finished the season with only 17 wins . In 1965, the Warriors drafted Rick Barry in the first round . Barry was named NBA Rookie of the Year after averaging 25.7 points per game and 10.6 rebounds per game . The next season, Barry (who averaged a league leading 35.6 points per game) and Nate Thurmond (who averaged 21.3 rebounds per game) helped to lead the Warriors to the NBA finals in the 1966--67 season . The team lost (four games to two) to the team that replaced the Warriors in Philadelphia, the 76ers, despite Barry's output of 40.8 points per game during the NBA Finals . </P> <P> Angered by management's failure to pay him certain incentive awards he felt he was due, Barry sat out the 1967--68 season, joining the Oakland Oaks of the rival American Basketball Association the following year . After four seasons in the ABA, Barry rejoined the Warriors in 1972 . With the opening of the Oakland Coliseum Arena in 1966, the Warriors began scheduling increasing numbers of home games at that venue . The 1970--71 season would be the team's last as the San Francisco Warriors . </P> <P> The Warriors changed their name to the Golden State Warriors for the 1971--72 season, playing almost all home games in Oakland . Six "home" games were played in San Diego during that season but more significantly, none were played in San Francisco or Daly City . After changing their name from the San Francisco Warriors, the Warriors became (and remain) the only NBA team that does not include the name of their state or their city in their name (although "Golden State" is a well - known California nickname). </P> <P> The 1974--75 team was coached by former Warrior Al Attles, and was led on the court by Rick Barry and Jamaal Wilkes . Wilkes was named the NBA Rookie of the Year, while Barry had a great all - around season averaging 30.6 points per game, leading the league in both free throw percentage and steals per game, and finishing sixth in the league in assists per game . In what many consider the biggest upset in the history of the NBA, the Warriors defeated the heavily favored Washington Bullets in a four - game sweep . So little was felt of the team's chances in the playoffs, even by their home fans, that 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 . Barry averaged 29.5 points per game during the Finals and was named the NBA Finals MVP . </P>
