Why is Bradley guarding Lebron in the half court?

[rondohondo]

They switched Bradley onto Lebron multiple times in their half court defense down the stretch when there was no need to, what is the thinking there ?  He has no chance

On a side note Smart needs to be playing 33+ mins ( only played 26 tonight )

Stevens needs to stick to a smaller rotation so guys can get in  a groove .

Yeah, I have no idea why he went with Bradley over Smart down the stretch. Bradley has been horrible so far, and Smart has done much more the last two games than Bradley.

Crowder should come in and out of the game with Lebron, sub him in and out at the same time.  Nobody else on the team should really guard him.  Possibly Smart if you really need Crowder to guard another player, Love or what not.

I agree with the crowder statement , which means he should definitely be starting

PG: Smart      / Thomas
SG: Turner     / Bradley
SF: Crowder  / Jerebko
PF: Bass        / KO
 C: Zeller       / Sully

We need to try and split up Smart and Bradleys mins so one of them is almost always guarding Irving
