The Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers faced off on November 25, 1977, at The Spectrum in Philadelphia. At this point in the season, the Warriors (entering at 9-9) were aiming to stabilize their campaign under head coach Al Attles, driven by veteran stars Rick Barry and Phil Smith. Meanwhile, the 76ers (entering at 12-5), coached by Gene Shue, were led by the dynamic Julius Erving and George McGinnis, both of whom were vital in establishing the team as contenders in the Eastern Conference. The 76ers were riding high on momentum and were already seen as a major threat in the league, while the Warriors were looking for consistency amidst a competitive Western Conference landscape.

The game was a high-scoring and tightly contested affair, with both teams showcasing their offensive firepower. Philadelphia jumped to an early lead, outscoring Golden State 32-26 in the first quarter, thanks to a strong performance from McGinnis, who would finish with 34 points and 20 rebounds. Julius Erving added 28 points, asserting his all-around dominance. Golden State, however, kept the game close with Phil Smith scoring a team-high 30 points and Rickey Green adding an efficient 22 points off the bench. The Warriors mounted a late comeback, forcing the game into overtime after a balanced scoring effort in the fourth quarter, but Philadelphia’s composure in the extra period sealed the win.

With the victory, the 76ers improved to 13-5, solidifying their position as Eastern Conference frontrunners in a season that would see them finish second in the Atlantic Division and eventually reach the NBA Finals. The Warriors, dropping to 9-10, continued their uneven season but showed promise in players like Smith and Green. For Philadelphia, this game was another step toward establishing themselves as one of the league’s elite teams of the era.
