You talking about using only the prefab roles for the player roles thing?

Dude what team is this? lol  I've never even thought about using player roles myself, thus I guess my default answer is the eyetest lineup.  Moreover, if you don't think/feel like you have a knack/feel/gut instinct for this game, then why are you playing?

Funny thing is though, I would have the starting lineup of the Player Roles, personally lol

I just use the weight in the roles to codify my gut.

Better way to ask the question probably would have been "lineup a or lineup b" without saying which was eyeball or roles until the voting was done. I think some people just automatically will answer eyeballs without even looking.

dac, I use something similar to player roles ... the same concept of spliting up 100% in importance among the attributes by position.  However, I also take into account Def_IQ, Off_IQ, and FreeThrows.  Using my formulas, I would play this:

PG:  Rule / Kowalkowski / Merrit / Tubbs
SG:  Turner / Merritt / Tubbs / Kowalkowski
SF:  Ramirez / Tubbs / Merritt / Kowalkowski
PF:   Leyva / Tubbs / Hutsell / Burchfield
C:  Colorado / Hutsell / Tubbs / Burchfield

Maybe put Crivello in one of the 4th slots for PF or C to get him playing time as well .. I would probably do it at PF.  Same thing for the 4th spot for Briscoe at either PG or SG.  I would probably use Brisco as the 4th PG instead of Tubbs.

Based on that chart (which is likely what I would use), I would say that the roles lineup is closer to what I would use than your eyeball lineup.

My other rule is that starters only play their position (and don't backup any place else), and the other players fill all 4 spots.

This is for my Louisville team in Knight - sorry, should have mentioned that.

don't be a tool all the time Trevor. I've got over 3,000 HD wins and a 62.7 winning % - just a discussion to compare/maybe attempt to see value in player roles...
