One thing you can be certain of when watching the Golden State Warriors play basketball is seeing Stephen Curry hit a barrage of three-pointers.

At least, that's usually the case.

The Warriors took on the Los Angeles Lakers Friday night, ending in a surprise 117-97 blowout loss for the two-time defending Western Conference champs.

Curry managed to grab eight rebounds and dish out seven assists, but only shot 5-of-17 from the field.

More shockingly, Curry shot 0-of-10 from beyond the arc, not providing the usual spark to his team.

After 157 straight games (196 including the playoffs), Curry's streak of at least one three-pointer a game has ended.

Steph spoke about the snapped streak after the game.

“That was a cool little ride. Would have loved to finish my career making one every game, but hey, start a new one. What was it, like two years? Kind of weird not to make one, but I will keep shooting.”

Kevin Durant and Ian Clark are the only Warriors at the moment shooting better than 40 percent from beyond the arc. The rest of the team seems to be in a funk, a strange phenomena compared to fans are used to seeing out of Golden State.

The worst offender has been Klay Thompson, shooting an abysmal 9-of-46 from three point range for a .196 percentage on the season.

Whatever the problem is, they'll have to fix it as a team because the three-pointer is a staple of the Warriors offense.
