Warriors veterans have devolved into a debilitating team-wide shooting slump

New York Times  

SAN FRANCISCO — In the Golden State Warriors’ 113-95 blowout loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, Dennis Schröder followed a lefty scoop layup with a wing 3 around the nine-minute mark of the fourth quarter. Since joining the Warriors — acquired via trade to boost the offense — he’s only hit consecutive shots three total times in seven games. He finished Monday night’s game 4-of-11 shooting, which ticked him upward to 29.7 percent overall with the Warriors.
