What happened to our offense?
They arent scoring in the 100s as often and are shooting % have plummeted at times. Offensive rebounding has dropped but what else has happened?
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

Re: What happened to our offense?
boy, Bibby has been stinking it up the last few months.
maybe Woody should rest Bibbs until he gets out of his funk and take his playing time down to 10min, and increase Evans and Teague's minutes dramatically

The problem is that if Bibby plays less than before, he won't be in the same rythm, and by taking less shots, he's certainly less effective.
The 0.362 behind the line are his second career worst (except first year), and the 0.399 in FG% are his career worst. And he coincidently plays less than 30min for the first time.
He always took lots of shots, and suddenly, he has to shoot less.
But... for what it's worth, he's first in +/- per minute, and 3rd in overall +/-, behind Josh and Horford, while playing less. Link
Also 3rd in "Net On Court/Off Court" on 82games. Link
And this is the impression I get looking at the games: even if he's less effective, it's most of the time on the court when ATL is better than the opponent team, a thing that is not the case of Crawford (even if Crawford plays more with the bench).
Crawford saved ATL on some games, Bibby didn't, but Crawford is the new Joe like I feared it in the beginning of the season, meaning ATL wins and loses with him.
I like the second offensive weapon he provide, but the way to use him is not the best at this moment, because the team depends too much on his performance.
And if Bibby was playing more, there's chance he would be in better shape.

i'm really starting to feel sick when i think about Bibby and his contract..... especially how if the Hawks were smart, they could have had Jarret Jack as the franchise PG and for so cheap.

We really need to get Bibby going. All we ask him to do is spread the ball around and hit open looks, he is doing neither right now.
