They tower over everyone in the hallway leading to the Golden State Warriors' practice floor. Rick Barry. Sleepy Floyd. Purvis Short. Larry Smith. Wilt Chamberlain. Tim Hardaway. Manute Bol. Mitch Richmond. Chris Mullin. Nate Thurmond. Don Nelson. Baron Davis. Antawn Jamison. Jason Richardson. The most notable figures in the franchise's history, both glorious and less so, are prominently displayed in a parade of oversized action photos for media and visitors alike to admire knowingly or, in a few cases, ponder quizzically.
A different roster though, populates the internal walls of acclaim for current Warriors. Stroll down the mental hallways of Stephen Curry or Draymond Green or Klay Thompson, and you'll find names that aren't quite as synonymous with the franchise.
