1954–55 Baltimore Bullets season
The Baltimore Bullets season was the Bullets' 8th season in the NBA and eleventh and final overall season of existence. After losing their November 19 game in a 103–92 defeat to the Fort Wayne Pistons for a 2–9 start to the season, the Bullets would fire head coach Clair Bee and replace him with assistant coach Albert Barthelme for what turned out to be the team's final three games ever played in franchise history. The franchise ceased operations after playing 14 total games with a 3–11 record on November 27, 1954. The NBA's official record books for the 1954–55 season do not include the Bullets' games and team statistics, nor do they include the statistics of the opposing players and teams in games played against the Bullets.
Baltimore would go without an NBA team until 1963, when the Chicago Zephyrs moved to Baltimore and became the second incarnation of the Baltimore Bullets. The new team, however, would not claim the old Bullets' history as a part of their own team history following the move from Chicago to Baltimore.
