What do you like as a better backup option? Topic

I am trying it this preseason to play the best backup player in a position, even if that means he is the backup to two or three different positions.  Has anybody done this and had success with it?  Or should I just stick with a starting PG and backup PG, starting SG and backup SG, and so on so I am making sure that I am playing 10 guys and not somewhere between 7-11?

Recently won a championship with this guy backing up at the 1-3, Rory Schwabenbauer. http://www.whatifsports.com/hd/PlayerProfile/Default.aspx?pid=2654102

Btw, does anybody know how to insert the players name as a link using an iPad?

the only thing I would say is that looking at milwoods guy, he ran a zone, meaning guys get tired slower so if makes sense to have a guy backup multiple positions to get him as many minutes possible.  but it looks like you run a man.  and so all it will mean is that the player backing up multiple positions which just come in the first time someone gets tired, and then when someone else needs to come out and the 2nd option is already in the game, the 3rd player on the depth chart goes in anyways.  But you could try it and see what happens.

The problem is my 10 guy rotation "backup" SG is really my 6th best SG, but the other players are backing up different positions.... SO that is my dilemma as of right now.
