While the Warriors lost, it’s good that Klay took some accountability. Steph Curry is also going through a shooting slump this season and the Splash Brothers need to bounce back quickly. It appears they’re missing Draymond Green, who is out injured. However, the Warriors have already lost three in a row and the gap between them and the Suns has increased further. They are now 7.5 games behind conference leaders Suns.
