The Oakland Oaks were able to make a huge splash by signing Rick Barry away from the San Francisco Warriors. The reason they were able to do this was because the guy that ran the Oaks was Barry's father-in-law. The team would later become the Washington Capitols and then the Virginia Squires where they brought in Dr J. and George Gervin. It was a wild history.CREDITSRick Loayza: Head researcher, writer, and voiceJacob Loayza: Editor, producer, and publisher MUSIC"Disco Funk" by Jam Morgan"Horizons" by Roa SPORTS HISTORY NETWORKsportshistorynetwork.comsportshistorynetwork.com/podcasts/basketball-history-101/ FACEBOOKm.facebook.com/Basketball-History-101-103801581493027/ BUSINESS CONTACTbballhistory101@gmail.com
Back in 1967, the San Francisco Warriors sued Rick Barry because he tried to jump to the Oakland Oaks of the ABA. This sent shockwaves through both leagues.

When Damian Lillard had his 71-point game, it wasn't just a new Portland Trail Blazers record, it was also a record for the most points scored against the Houston Rockets. We know the record for scoring against the Knicks is Wilt Chamberlain with 100 points back on March 2, 1962 (see yesterday's episode)… so, how about the rest of the NBA?Lillard broke a record previously held by Allen Iverson, who scored 58 against Houston in 2002. The Answer still has one of the team-specific records that comes up when you go down the Stathead rabbit hole: the most points scored in a game against the New Orleans Hornets — specifically the New Orleans Hornets, with 55 on April 20, 2003. A double nickel… a dime, if you will, on 4/20.Thing is, Devin Booker had a 58-point game against the New Orleans Pelicans this season, and George Gervin once scored 63 against the New Orleans Jazz.So, let's just go through some players and admire their great performances that are records against some forms of team — most active, some not.Alvan Adams: 47 vs. Buffalo Braves, 1977LaMarcus Aldridge: 56 vs. Oklahoma City Thunder, 2019Carmelo Anthony: 62 vs. Charlotte Bobcats, 2014Elgin Baylor: 63 vs. Philadelphia Warriors, 1961Devin Booker: 70 vs. Boston Celtics, 2017; 58 vs. New Orleans Pelicans, 2022Kobe Bryant: 81 vs. Toronto Raptors, 2006; 65 vs. Portland Trail Blazers, 2007; 62 vs. Dallas Mavericks, 2005; 60 vs. Memphis Grizzlies, 2007; 60 vs. Utah Jazz, 2016Wilt Chamberlain: 100 vs. New York Knicks, 1962; 78 vs. Los Angeles Lakers, 1961; 73 vs. Chicago Packers, 1962; 70 vs. Syracuse Nationals, 1963; 67 vs. St. Louis Hawks, 1962; 66 vs. Phoenix Suns, 1969; 65 vs. Cincinnati Royals, 1962; 63 vs. Philadelphia 76ers, 1964; 62 vs. San Francisco Warriors, 1966; 56 vs. Baltimore Bullets, 1964Tom Chambers: 60 vs. Seattle SuperSonics, 1990DeMarcus Cousins: 56 vs. Charlotte Hornets (current), 2016Tony Delk: 53 vs. Sacramento Kings, 2001Joe Fulks: 63 vs. Indianapolis Jets, 1949George Gervin: 63 vs. New Orleans Jazz, 1978Gail Goodrich: 53 vs. Kansas City/Omaha Kings, 1975James Harden: 61 vs. San Antonio Spurs, 2019; 58 vs. Miami Heat, 2018Allen Iverson: 55 vs. New Orleans Hornets, 2003Michael Jordan: 69 vs. Cleveland Cavaliers, 1990; 64 vs. Orlando Magic, 1993; 61 vs. Atlanta Hawks, 1987; 57 vs. Washington Bullets, 1992Bernard King: 60 vs. New Jersey Nets, 1984Damian Lillard: 71 vs. Houston Rockets, 2023; 61 vs. Golden State Warriors, 2020; 60 vs. Brooklyn Nets, 2019Karl Malone: 61 vs. Milwaukee Bucks, 1990Moses Malone: 53 vs. San Diego Clippers, 1982Antonio McDyess: 46 vs. Vancouver Grizzlies, 1999Tracy McGrady: 62 vs. Washington Wizards, 2004George Mikan: 61 vs. Rochester Royals, 1952Reggie Miller: 57 vs. Charlotte Hornets (original), 1992Donovan Mitchell: 71 vs. Chicago Bulls, 2023; 57 vs. Denver Nuggets, 2020Tony Parker: 55 vs. Minnesota Timberwolves, 2008David Robinson: 71 vs. Los Angeles Clippers, 1994David Thompson: 73 vs. Detroit Pistons, 1978Klay Thompson: 60 vs. Indiana Pacers, 2016Jack Twyman: 59 vs. Minneapolis Lakers, 1960Get 10% off in the Willets Pen shop with the code WCPIO!

Today is the 61st anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game……and we're less than a week away from Damian Lillard scoring 71 against the Rockets. You don't need a cool video on that, it just happened and it's all over the internet.I noticed on the list of all-time 70-point games that Lillard's was the first in the month of February. Indeed, according to Stathead, the all-time record for the month had been 68 by Pete Maravich in 1977. Naturally, I wanted to find out the rest of the monthly records, so I did, and here they are…January: Kobe Bryant, 81 (Lakers vs. Raptors, 2006)February: Lillard, 71 (Trail Blazers vs. Rockets, Sunday)March: Chamberlain, 100 (Philadelphia Warriors vs. Knicks at Hershey, Pa., 1962)April: David Thompson, 73 (Nuggets at Pistons, 1978)May: Charles Barkley, 56 (Suns at Warriors, 1994 Western Conference first round)June: Michael Jordan, 55 (Bulls vs. Suns, 1993 NBA Finals) and Lillard, 55 (Trail Blazers at Nuggets, 2021 Western Conference first round)July: Giannis Antetokounmpo, 50 (Bucks vs. Suns, 2021 NBA Finals)August: Lillard, 61 (Trail Blazers vs. Mavericks at Bay Lake, Fla., 2020)September: Jamal Murray, 40 (Nuggets vs. Clippers, 2020 Western Conference semifinals)October: Chamberlain, 59 (San Francisco Warriors vs. Knicks, 1962) and James Harden, 59 (Rockets at Wizards, 2019)November: Chamberlain, 73 (San Francisco Warriors at Knicks, 1962)December: Chamberlain, 78 (Philadelphia Warriors vs. Lakers, 1961)Lillard now owns or shares three of these records, two thanks to the coronavirus pandemic schedules. Chamberlain still holds three of the monthly scoring records that he set in the calendar year of 1962.There's a lot more from this rabbit hole to come. Stay tuned! —JS This is a public episode.

[Our Thanksgiving gift this week is a December 2017 archive re-release favorite with world-renowned singer/entertainer Pat Boone!] We usher in the holidays and round out our debut season with the inimitable Pat Boone – an American entertainment legend and inveterate business entrepreneur, with a life-long passion for the sport of basketball. In a career spanning over six decades (and counting!), the incomparable Boone has just about done it all in the fields of music, film, television, and stage, as well as the pursuit of a wide variety of business interests – including being the majority owner of the American Basketball Association's charter Bay Area franchise, the Oakland Oaks. Denied the ability to play its NBA All-Star marquee signing (and cross-town San Francisco Warriors star) Rick Barry for the inaugural 1967-68 ABA season, Boone's Oaks endured a league-worst 22-56 record, amid dismally low crowds at the brand-new Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena. Barry's official arrival the next season (despite a knee injury that curtailed his play after only 35 games), paired with the hiring of two-time NBA champion head coach Alex Hannum, and an influx of future perennial All-Star talent like Doug Moe and Larry Brown, instantly rejuvenated the club's competitive profile, as the Oaks zoomed to a league-leading 60-18 “worst-to-first” regular season record and a dominating run in the playoffs to capture the 1968-89 league championship. Despite the reversal of fortune on the hardwood, Boone lost a fortune at the box office (in excess of $2 million in just two seasons), as neither Barry nor a title provided any significant lift in ticket sales – or visible hope of near-term future improvement in the competitive Bay Area market. Former Baltimore Bullets NBA owner (and later Major Indoor Soccer League co-founder) Earl Foreman purchased the franchise (and its debts) from Boone for $2.6 million in August of 1969 and moved them to the Nation's Capital, where they became the one-year Washington Caps, replete with a reluctant Barry in tow. In this revealing conversation, Boone recounts: the events that led him to become a pro basketball owner; the tortuous journey of landing Rick Barry; the thrill of winning an ABA championship; the unwitting blank check that kept the Oaks financially afloat, but nearly sank Boone personally and professionally; and why, despite his continued passion for the sport, he never pursued another professional basketball ownership opportunity in the decidedly more stable NBA in later years. Plus: a ring more expensive Elizabeth Taylor's; dunking over Bill Russell; comparing pro titles with Mark Cuban; and our quest for footage of the 1978 CBS/NBA Three-on-Three Tournament!
At time of recording on Thursday evening, the Golden State Warriors were just minutes away from tip-off at the Chase Center in their playoff series with the Dallas Mavericks. For a closer look at the history of the team and its significance to California, KCBS Radio news anchors Jeff Bell and Patti Reising spoke with San Francisco Chronicle culture critic Peter Hartlaub.
In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring Wilt Chamberlain to the table for discussion.
Hall of Fame forward Rick Barry is the only player ever to lead the NCAA, NBA, and ABA in scoring. His name appears near the top of every all-time offensive list. He scored more than 25,000 points in his professional career and in four different seasons averaged more than 30 points. He was named to 12 All-Star teams, four All-NBA First Teams, and five All-ABA First Teams. Barry was a nearly unstoppable offensive juggernaut, a passionate competitor with an untempered desire to win. Barry is widely known for his unorthodox but extraordinarily effective underhand free throw technique. His career .880 free throw percentage ranks No. 1 in ABA history, and at the time of his retirement in 1980, his .900 percentage was the best of any NBA player. In 1987, Barry was honored as one of the league's greatest players of all-time by being named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team. Today he is a professional pickleball player who has competed in multiple events and placed in the top 3.

Denise Long Rife was known for her work ethic and long hours of practice. As a forward in 6 on 6 basketball, her job was to score without worrying about running the court or playing defense. She took her practice so seriously that the park where she shot baskets while it was -11 degrees is now named after her. The countless hours of shooting helped her on her way to the national scoring record. After scoring over 6000 points in high school, including many games over 100 points, Long Rife was one of the most prolific scorers in prep basketball history. One of the highlights of her career was the championship game during her senior year which was seen by millions of people. However, her scoring total wasn't the only history she made. After her senior season, Denise was working on a bulletin board at school when a classmate told her she had been drafted. Long Rife didn't follow the NBA and had never even heard about the San Francisco Warriors. She took the opportunity to go out to California and played for the women's league that Franklin Mieuli, the owner of the Warriors, was starting. Her selection drew national attention and she was written about in Sports Illustrated and was a guest on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Are you a proud supporter of the Moonlight Graham Show?

Bill Russell era o treinador-jogador dos Boston Celtics e queria recuperar o título da NBA, perdido pela primeira vez em nove anos na época anterior. A meio de um início de temporada demolidor, Boston foi atacada por uma tempestade de neve poucas horas antes de um jogo com os San Francisco Warriors. O que aconteceu com Russell? A culpa foi do seu Lamborghini.

In this week's episode of the podcast, Jackson Williams sits down to discuss a variety of topics. He starts off talking about the most recent San Francisco Giants free agent acquisition, Austin Jackson. He then shifts gears to the NBA, where he recaps this week's Golden State Warriors games, talks about some NBA drama with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Milwaukee Bucks, and then discusses some potential trades. He wraps up the show talking about the recent NFL action, breaking down the Patriots and Eagles wins to advance to the Super Bowl.
We usher in the holidays and round out our debut season with the inimitable Pat Boone – an American entertainment legend and inveterate business entrepreneur, with a life-long passion for the sport of basketball. In a career spanning over six decades (and counting!), the incomparable Boone has just about done it all in the fields of music, film, television, and stage, as well as the pursuit of a wide variety of business interests – including being the majority owner of the American Basketball Association’s charter Bay Area franchise, the Oakland Oaks. Denied the ability to play its NBA All-Star marquee signing (and cross-town San Francisco Warriors star) Rick Barry for the inaugural 1967-68 ABA season, Boone’s Oaks endured a league-worst 22-56 record, amid dismally low crowds at the brand-new Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena. Barry’s official arrival the next season (despite a knee injury that curtailed his play after only 35 games), paired with the hiring of two-time NBA champion head coach Alex Hannum, and an influx of future perennial All-Star talent like Doug Moe and Larry Brown, instantly rejuvenated the club’s competitive profile, as the Oaks zoomed to a league-leading 60-18 “worst-to-first” regular season record and a dominating run in the playoffs to capture the 1968-69 league championship. Despite the reversal of fortune on the hardwood, Boone lost a fortune at the box office (in excess of $2 million in just two seasons), as neither Barry nor a title provided any significant lift in ticket sales – or visible hope of near-term future improvement in the competitive Bay Area market. Former Baltimore Bullets NBA owner (and later Major Indoor Soccer League co-founder) Earl Foreman purchased the franchise (and its debts) from Boone for $2.6 million in August of 1969 and moved them to the Nation’s Capital, where they became the one-year Washington Caps, replete with a reluctant Barry in tow. In this revealing conversation, Boone recounts: the events that led him to become a pro basketball owner; the tortuous journey of landing Rick Barry; the thrill of winning an ABA championship; the unwitting blank check that kept the Oaks financially afloat, but nearly sank Boone personally and professionally; and why, despite his continued passion for the sport, he never pursued another professional basketball ownership opportunity in the decidedly more stable NBA in later years. Plus: a ring more expensive Elizabeth Taylor's; dunking over Bill Russell; comparing pro titles with Mark Cuban; the Cooga Mooga All-Stars; and our quest for footage of the 1978 CBS/NBA Three-on-Three Tournament!

Jason Mann and Rich Kraetsch make their choices for the best jerseys in each NBA franchise’s history on the latest episode of the Over and Back classic NBA podcast. From the cursive “Chicago” text on the early Michael Jordan-era Bulls uniforms, “The City” logo on the classic San Francisco Warriors jerseys worn by Rick Barry and Nate Thurmond, the mostly unchanged apparel of the Boston Celtics worn by the likes of Bill Russell, Larry Bird and Paul Pierce, and the gorgeous 1980s outfits worn by the Seattle Supersonics, Jason and Rich dig into a bit of the history of each team’s best jerseys and the reasons behind their choices.
