They were switching everything and Tim didn't. It was 100% his fault in that case.
Another play:

Zero reason for Timmy to sink that low, strong side, off of a very strong 3pt shooter. It's PJ's rotation if Gafford gets beat, but for seemingly no reason Timmy sinks really far down.

Another play where Timmy roams off of his man Smith, to fill up space in the paint. That's not really his job there though, given that Luka is right there and PJ is in position for weakside help. Then of course because Timmy is so far out of position, when Turner gets the ball, he literally Gortat screens Gafford and leads to an easy bucket for Indiana. There is no reason to have 4 guys in the paint there!
