Curious as to why Stevens would put Brown in for Rozier on the previous Kings possession (where Hayward fouled Hield), but not for the final Kings possession.
Is Brown not the superior defender?
I dont think Smart was in there either, was he? But hey, it all worked out.
Worked out, just odd.
Kings ball, down 3 with 16 seconds left, Stevens goes with Brown, Tatum, Hayward, Morris, Horford.
Kings ball, down 2 with 2 seconds left, Stevens goes with Rozier, Tatum, Hayward, Morris, Horford. Basically the same situation, so why the Rozier/Brown swap. I only noticed because Rozier was guarding 7' Willie Cauley-Stein at the end.
Smart, your defensive guru, not in for either play, also odd.
Would love to pick Steven's brain there.
