Warriors over Bullets 1 of the bigger upsets in NBA History.

Warriors coach Al Attles is the nicest athlete I ever met. Always said hi before games in the 60s.

Check out Terry Pluto's book Tall Tales and read the story on the chapter on Wilt And The Warriors for the story: Wilt's Bodyguard(as if he needed one) about Al Attles and why he was known as "The Destroyer"

I remember attending a basketball camp in the summer of '74 and Al Attles was one of the guest celebrity coaches. During a question-and-answer session, Attles, when asked about the prospects for the coming season, replied that his hope was the Warriors would at least be competitive. Well, now, were they ever!!

I don't know if agree about your evaluation of Al Attles, but I do agree about Mieuli, he may be the worst owner in all of professional sports to ever somehow manage to win a championship.

George Johnson grabs the rebound!

...barry couldn't be guarded, he averaged 41 per game in the 67 finals against the toughest front line ever, wilt, lusicious jackson and chet walker, billy cunningham the sixth man couldn't break into the starting front line combo...

Dude: as of 1975, the US national basketball team had lost only ONE GAME in history -- by one point on a notoriously blown call. And before 1984, our national team was a bunch of college kids that would have been massacred by the NBA champs. So even though the Warriors didn't win a global competition, it is beyond argument that they were the best team on earth. And I agree with blazer79 that bad language does not improve a bad argument.
