D2 Perimeter Defense Topic

In a vacuum, for a PG, do you consider 60 ATH, 100 SPD, 50 DEF, "adequate" defense?

I would be TOTALLY willing to go with that unless the kid had nothing else to offer in the other areas. It has been a while since I've run man with a team at D2, but wouldn't have a trouble signing that kid at all. He won't be a lock-down defender, but he's a kid whose ATH/SPD will probably magnify the 50 Def (which isn't bad to begin with...) and make him an above-average defender. At worst you're getting average-ish D with a huge upside in offensive categories potentially with the speed/Ath combo.

100 SPD... I mean it's a no brainer. You dislike his 50 def, but 100 speed... It disrupts a lot of stuff.

Is it 50 defense or is it the potential to reach 50? Seeing that those last few points are tough to get then Im looking at mid to upper 40s. I would really hesitate to recruit this guy. I know you said in a vacuum, but he'd have to be at least a B free throw shooter and 75+ bh and pa.

Strictly speaking on his defense, though. Yeah, he'lol be a good defender.

Oh wait, I just read your Original post. You said adequate. Yeah, he'll be adequate. Still hope he has other pg skills, though

I run press at DII, but I try to keep my ideal minimum defensive rating at 60.  So just looking at his defense, it's below average, and not good for a man. But I would still take him, and have seen success with players like that. this is my starting pg in DII Allen right now,  and I won the championship last season and planning on being there at the end again this season. (it is a press).
