SAN FRANCISCO -- When Stephen Curry returns, whether it’s Thursday (anticipated) or Saturday (at the absolute latest), maybe the Warriors will have what they need to reacquaint themselves with a former friend.
Remember the 3-point arc, and how loyal it once was? Game after game, at least it seemed, the Warriors would reach out for help and it would be there providing comfort and warmth. The Warriors could lean on it, and there were many nights when it seemed to bend to their will.
Not this season. The darned thing has gotten ornery. Angry. After 10 years of building up trust, it has deserted them, lashing out and smacking down shooting percentages.
