Its hard to tell if the Warriors as a team or Steph Curry as an individual is in a darker place right now.
Golden State suffered another preventable loss at home to a team missing its star player after going down 114-98 to the Miami without Jimmy Butler.
Curry could be seen on the broadcast hitting a chair in frustration during the a timeout in the second quarter after the Heat took a 42-29 lead.

After the game, he was asked how he think the team can fix its struggling offense one that has failed to score 100 points in the last four losses.
I honestly have no idea, Curry said. Well try to figure it out. But I dont have answer right now.
The game had the same tone as the one before, since the Dubs copped a 129-99 loss to the Kings without DeAaron Fox.
The disappointment from Steph is absolutely palpable.
Yeah, I mean, back-to-back no shows pretty much, Curry said. The hard part is these are winnable games against teams that, for whatever reason, are around the same [spot in the] standings. We have nothing to show for it, nothing really to latch onto like Oh, were doing this great if we can only
Seems like both sides of the ball are struggling. Theyre probably connected, if you make shots usually your confidence goes up, your belief that you can win the game goes up. It helps you play defense. Once you lose that spirit its glaring how bad we can be at times.
Head coach Steve Kerr says he can see how much the Warriors woes are affecting its star player.
I can see it, Kerr said. I can see it with Steph. Hes continued to be brilliant night after night but at his core, hes a winner, hes a champion, he wants to compete at the highest level. We just saw it a few months ago in Paris. The best of the best. He takes over the fourth quarter when everythings on the line. Thats who he is, thats what he lives for. So he is really struggling with the emotion of [the team] not being competitive right now. He probably hasnt had to deal with this since his, I dont know, his first couple years in the league. Hes definitely struggling with it.
The Warriors have now moved down to 10th seed in the West with 18-18 and .500 record after losing 15 of their last 21 games. Yikes.
