Thomas gives us a play maker/scorer in the backcourt . Smart provides the lock down D . This is much more balanced than Smat/ab

Plus he looked good scoring and defending bench players .

This is where he belongs as a 6th/7th man type .

Agreed. I believe Bradley would be a nice fit off the bench with Evan Turner.

I really like the shortened guard rotation, too. Smart and IT both got 33+ minutes, Bradley 26, and Turner got a couple minutes.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Why do so many get hung up on who's starting or who's where in the rotation? CBS is mixing and matching his entire roster and it doesn't look like this is going to stop anytime soon.  Most teams obviously do have a rotation and there are starters and 'rotation guys'.  This team has 12 rotation guys and CBS is going to play matchups/hot hands etc.  Tommy talked about it tonight on the post game.

Much more important than Stevens starters are his finishers. And those change game to game as well, though I think we can take something from the guys most often on the court at the end. (Turner btw - everyone's whipping boy - is one of those guys - so consider him one of Brad's top 5)

This is not a typical NBA team - not even close.
