Starter or Backup Topic

I have 2 similar players (Berndt and Jeppesen) in which one will be the starting SF and the other will be the backup PF. I play motion offense zone defense. I am thinking of starting Jeppesen and playing Berndt as the backup. I also have Rollins who is the starting PF if you think they should start in front of him, or if Rollins should start at SF instead. What do you guys think?

I'm thinking Berndt Starting SF and Jeppesen Backup PF, main reason is that with the LP and ATH you my find some favorable offensive matchups at the SF position at some point. Also Jeppesen has a slightly better Rebounding to him. So at a bigger position he will pull down the ball a little more. My other issue with Jeppesen is basically he does not have the attributes to contribute offensively very much. Lack of BH and SPD makes his PER tough to ever rely on and with his high ATH unfortunatly you can't utilize that offensively with his low LP.

Overally to sum it up, both guys defensively are sound and can play either position but Berndt offensively has opportunity to be utilized if you go against a weaker SF with low ATH/DEF. Jepp just doesn't have the SPD or BH to utilize his PER effectively. I may be wrong completly but that is my take on it....

EDIT: I'd keep Rollins in as well. Jepp and Berndt have lower IQ's and Rollins will help make sure the offense/defense runs smoother with his High IQ let alone he's a defensive monster.

Berndt is high in Reb, and Jepp is Avg. I agree with you Bagger, except when the other team has a good defender at SF then I would rather have the passing at SF instead of the offense.
