LaMelo Ball<\/a>, Hornets bring Warriors win streak to end<\/h3>\n

Home cooking and a soft schedule had served the Warriors well with their fast start to the season \u2014 eight straight games at the Chase Center, which led to a seven-game win streak and the best record in the NBA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But the Warriors forgot to pack their offense when they went out on the road Sunday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Golden State shot 9-of-39 (23.1%) from 3 \u2014 the Warriors\u2019 bench was 0-of-9 from deep \u2014 and scored less than a point per possession against a Charlotte team with a bottom-five defense. It wasn\u2019t that the Hornets were locking the Warriors down; Golden State was just missing clean looks. Also, in crunch time, the Warriors struggled to generate good looks out of their halfcourt offense and shot 6-of-22 in the fourth (those struggles when it started to feel like a playoff game are not the best omen for Warriors fans).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite all that, the Warriors still could have walked away with a win, a Draymond Green<\/a> dunk with :44 left tied the game. But then Miles Bridges<\/a> got up a little a hook shot to put the Hornets up two, Kevon Looney<\/a> missed a pair of free throws, and after Green tied up Rozier late and forced a jump ball, it was Rozier who won it, and not long after iced the game with two free throws.<\/strong><\/p>\n
