The analytics revolution wasn't about short players specifically, the 3-point revolution aspect was mainly about selecting shots based on the expected value of the shot. The warriors in this aspect was very far behind the curve compared to Houston. The main takeaway for them was taking shots from farther behind the three point line, but they didn't have an emphasis on corner 3s (which are closer to the basket) or de-emphasis on mid-range shots (between the 3 point line and outside of 8 to 10ish feet from the basket). They (along with the rest of the league) were trending towards Moreyball during their championship years (particularly in 2015-16 if I remember correctly) but there were years where they mainly had extraordinary shooters.
