Golden State Warriors owner Chris Cohan, whose long-suffering team finally has become a force on the basketball court, has been waging his own battle in federal court over claims he evaded taxes and owes the government more than $160 million.
The government says Cohan, a former cable TV mogul, "engaged in three potentially abusive tax shelters" when he sold Sonic Communications in 1998 for more than $200 million, court records show.
An attorney for Cohan was at the Phillip Burton Federal Building in San Francisco on Wednesday -- the day after the Warriors' unexpected playoff run ended -- arguing that his client should not have to turn over certain documents the government has pursued in its investigation of the tax shelters and their creators.

Coach Don Nelson isn't sure he'll return to guide the Warriors through the next stage of their resurgence.
Nelson plans to decide by July 1 whether he'll be back for another season with the Warriors, whose surprising playoff run ended Tuesday night with a second-round loss to the Jazz. The defeat capped the franchise's first winning regular season and postseason berth since 1994.
"It's not a good time for me to make that decision," Nelson said Wednesday at the Warriors' downtown training complex. "I think it was really important that I came here. I'm not so sure it's important that I stay on."
