Warriors' Harrison Barnes: Scoreless in Game 6 loss

Barnes went without a point (0-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and had just two rebounds and a blocked shot across 16 minutes in Thursday's 115-101 loss to the Warriors in Game 6.

Analysis:

At a time when Barnes, who is a week away from becoming a restricted free agent, is looking to earn big dollars, the forward is shrinking. During the last two games of the series -- both of which have been close-out games for the Warriors -- Barnes has made just two of his 22 shot attempts. He's had an up-and-down season, but Barnes' has hit a slump at the worst possible time. Despite the shooting slump and reduced playing time Thursday, coach Steve Kerr told Carl Steward of the San Jose Mercury News that Barnes will start Game 7 in Oakland on Sunday and expressed confidence in the fourth-year forward.
