Part 4/7:
Another weakness that Butler addressed was the Warriors' dismal free-throw performance. Before his arrival, the team faced severe scoring droughts that seemed unexplainable at times. Often, these lapses would result in missed shots that the team couldn't recover from, giving opposing teams opportunities to run away with games. Butler's knack for drawing fouls means that those dry spells are less daunting; the Warriors can now earn points from the free-throw line, a strategy that might save the day in tightly contested matches.
