The Golden State Warriors got off to a bad, no good, really terrible start in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The team scored just 11 points while the Cavaliers scored a whopping 31.

Just how bad was the offensive start for the Warriors?
Lowest-scoring quarter of the Warriors’ season. Hell of a time for it.

Ok, that’s bad but the Warriors are a great offensive team so the standard is pretty high.
Warriors scored 11 points in the first quarter, the fewest the club has scored in an opening frame in the playoffs in the Shot Clock Era.

All right that’s even worse. But, the Warriors aren’t exactly a perennial playoff team.
Fewest 1st Quarter Points in Finals (Shot Clock Era since 1955)
