As has been noted, the defence was actually pretty good at the beginning of the season - which is when Lowry was playing his best. If he'd sustained that all year, I don't think the d would have suffered nearly as badly as it did.

Unless he is truly incompetent and didn't notice the downgrade, not reverting to the prior system is purposely choosing the inferior version. It's far more likely, if not obvious, that he went with inferior defensive players and made some alterations as best he could. It's still largely indefensible, just not malicious or reeking of gross incompetence. Occam's razor.
Why would anyone ever suggest it was malicious?
Incompetence doesn't seem like a stretch. This is the guy who wouldn't foul down 1 with a 2 second shot clock-game clock differential.

To me Casey comes across as a similar type of coach to Marc Jackson. Not great with Xs and Os but a good motivator, well liked by players with a hard-nosed attitude.
If he can decide to not be like Marc next year and use his assistants effectively I think he can be a very successful head coach. This is something Doc Rivers excelled at in Boston (and also Steve Kerr with Golden State last year) and not only did it bolster his reputation, it also resulted in more success for the team.

The fact that Casey is still coach means MU sees something in him that almost all of us ( including me) do not . He's had plenty of time and opportunity to replace Casey, the last play gaffe that may well have cost us a game 7 win over Brooklyn the most glaring example.
I actually have cautious optimism for this season.If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.
