The Golden State Warriors lost a third straight game when they were defeated by the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday, 121-113. The Warriors are stuck in a rut lately, not only losing three straight but have lost 12 of their last 16 matches.
It is shocking to watch Golden State struggling, hitting 45.1% of their shots, 26th overall. They are 16th in three-point shooting (36.6%) but given that 40 of their average shots per game are from three-point range (40 of 90), this is not good.
