# 2010–11 Golden State Warriors season

The 2010–11 Golden State Warriors season was the 65th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and its 49th in the San Francisco Bay Area. It was the first season under their new primary logo, which harkened back to the classic blue and gold logos worn by the team prior to the 1997–98 Golden State Warriors season.
