The Golden State Warriors have won three of the last four NBA championships and have become a dynasty all their own. But this current line-up is just the latest of a storied franchise that has had some of the greatest players in NBA history.

Let’s take a look at some of the greatest Warriors before Curry and co. came along.
Wilt Chamberlain: Wilt was a monster. He dominated the NBA unlike any other. For six seasons, he posted unbelievable numbers for the Warriors, averaging a staggering 32 points and 19 rebounds per game.
Rick Barry: Rick Barry is the prototype Warrior. He was a sweet shooter with an impressive all-around game. He was also the leader of the first Warriors team to ever win a title.
Chris Mullin: Mullin was part of the Dream Team and for a good reason. He was a lethal shooter who knocked down almost any shot when left unguarded.
Tim Hardaway: Along with Mullin and Mitch Richmond, Hardaway comprised Run TMC, the most exciting trio of players in the '90s. Hardaway led the up-tempo game and was as skilled a ball-handler as any ball-handler today.
Baron Davis: A stocky guard who could leap over tall defenders in a single bounce, Baron Davis single-handedly kept the Dubs afloat during one of their worst spells in the early 2000s. An exciting and explosive player, he was one of the few Warriors worth watching at the time.
