I remember the last 3-4 years, we complained at how they kept taking so many threes (always near the top of the league) despite not being a good shooting team. Better-than-normal shooting for this team + MVP-level play by Luka made a limited roster look much better than it actually was.
This year, the roster wasn't really upgraded in a major way so it shouldn't be a surprise to see this team struggle as the shooting came back down to earth. And even before the Covid hit, it's not like they were lighting it up.
seth curry is still a 50% 3pt shooter, he helped last year
...but the loss of a single non-starting player shouldn't tank the team this badly.
