He finished 7 for 13 (1-5 from 3) so I guess he got it going later, after the game was basically decided?
The first 5 misses were:
Turnaround jump shot (blocked)
Wide open top of the key 3
Wide open top of the key 3
Wide open wing 3.
Wide open top of the key 3.
He then went 6-7 in the 3rd and 4th when the Wizards were down for basically all of it. I will say that KP was their only consistent offense in the 2nd half. No one else could score and he kept them within striking distance of a long shot comeback.
Yet whenever the Wizards got a little momentum guess what play the Warriors ran? If you guessed put whoever KP was guarding in a high PnR with Steph you won. It resulted in an easy basket every single time.
