Did Sasha deserve to be removed from the lineup entirely?

We all know that Sasha has not shot the ball well this year. But there have been several times when I've thought he might be coming around over the past month or so. I have no trouble with removing him from the starting lineup, but Mike Brown sent him straight from the starting lineup to the bench.

I don't really agree with that move because it puts a lot of defensive pressure on Devin Brown when he's probably not able to handle it. Without Sasha, we lack the size on the perimeter to stop effective SGs, and I don't think that's going to change going into the playoffs.

Why couldn't he bring Sasha off the bench behind Lebron even? He's just as much of a 3 as he is a 2, and if you're worrying about cutting into Wally's minutes, that's a solution that could help. I just don't think he deserved to go from starting to falling out of the rotation entirely.
