Last night was rock bottom in the 28-point loss to the Wizards and just added to what has been an unpleasant season in Atlanta.

The Hawks were at home facing the 6-31 Washington Wizards (a team they had already beaten three times this season) and looked lifeless and disinterested almost the entire way through. Washington is an even worse defensive team than the Hawks, yet Atlanta could not score on them and trailed by 28 points going into the fourth quarter.

Three of the last four games have been disasters for Atlanta. They gave up 150 points and 50 assists to the Pacers on the road last Friday, they were blown out again by Indiana two days ago, but this time Indiana was without their super star Tyrese Haliburton. Last night was the proverbial cherry on top. At home against a bad team and the Hawks just looked lifeless the entire time.

Can the Hawks reverse thier fortunes and take down the Spurs tomorrow? Maybe, but the way that they are playing, it is hard to say.

There have been trade rumors surrounding this team for weeks and they are not going to slow down after last night.

This team lacks an identity and I don't see that changing anytime soon. They are arguably the worst defense in the NBA and their offense is good, not great. Atlanta can't win games unless their offense is scoring 120 points or more and that is a problem. High-level teams have to be able to win in multiple ways and the Hawks can't do that.

It's Time for the Atlanta Hawks to Hit the Reset Button, but What Will That Look Like?
