Hannum might have re- turned after two years in Phila- delphia and Sharman might have stayed if Warrior stock had been available. - Informed of Hannum's Oakland contract, Mieuli said that open the Warrior head coaching job to as- sistant George Lee if he wants it. Hannum told a news conference he signed an eight-year contract with the Oaks and "will become totally involved in basketball," giving up in effect his Southern California construction business. He saidrhe will receive the same salary from the Oaks as he re- ceived at Philadelphia. His 76ers won the Eastern Divi- sion season title, but lost the firstJ round playoff to the Boston Cel- tics, who %vent on to the NBA championship., Hannum left the Warriors two years ago because Mieuli demand- ed that he devote full time to the team, including holding offseason drills. Bruce Hale, who coached the Oaks the past season, will devote full time to being general manager. Hannum declined to say how much stock he gets in the Oaks except "It's the same as Rick Barry's." That would be 10 per cent. Barry will play for the Oaks after Sept. 30. Would his and Sharman's switching to the ABA attract play- ers from the NBA? "I think there would be trouble if we tried wholesale recruiting of NBA players,"Hannum replied. "If someone feels he wants to improve his lot by coming to the ABA we',l be glad to talk with him."
