<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Scott May @ Feb 19 2008, 10:07 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I suppose it's a good move to get them over the hump and into the playoffs this year, and then they can have 2008-2009 to evaluate further (although they may have had to make a big decision about Josh Smith this summer), but I'm not a big Bibby fan and I'm not sure he's really what they need. My first beef is that Bibby's defense has basically fallen apart over the last couple of seasons. Anthony Johnson/Lue aren't exactly world-beaters, but I think they're probably both a lot more effective on that end than Bibby is. The Hawks have been a fairly solid defensive unit, so it'll be interesting to chart any impact here. </div> sorry dude, I just had to stop reading after I read that. SmH
Bibby's defensive downward trend seems to have occurred at about the same time the Kings started to suck in general. Maybe if he's motivated he'll put more into it. I have to agree that Anything Johnson and T.Lue were a pretty brutal combo though.
