Spurs' Harrison Barnes problem gets worse the closer you look

It's not breaking news to say that San Antonio's favorite NBA vet has been struggling lately. But when you look closer at his numbers throughout the season, you actually need to remove the word "lately" when you realize this has been a season-long issue. Harrison Barnes hasn't been good at putting the ball in the basket all year long, and that's very alarming, but not for the reason you think.

Despite his inability to get buckets, turning in his lowest point per game average since his third season and worse efficiency ratings in years, the Spurs still need him right now.
