For argument's sake, lets say you can ONLY play these players at the 4. Who're y'all taking?

Player A (would have to suppress this guy so he is likely to stay 3 years)
100 ath
62 sp
78 reb
99 de
48 sb
78 lp
94 per
71 bh
95 pa
94 sta


Player B
90 ath
62 sp
84 reb
93 de
78 sb
85 lp
75 per
66 bh
52 pa
96 sta

First player is high starting ratings, second player is high ath/de starting low everything else 95 WE.

Depends what you need... if you need the guy this year, probably A. If you envision a shooting problem coming up soon it sounds like A could be the right choice, too. Honestly, it's almost always A, but if you think you can keep B for 4 years and you want that for class balancing, they're close enough for that to be a factor. And price, of course. If A is a 4 or 5 star guy you think everyone's going to be after it's certainly possible you'd be better off "settling" for B and allocating those resources elsewhere.

A

I was leaning slightly toward player A until I saw the BH/Passing. Now I'm extremely confident in going with player A. I have a big at Duke who is very similar to other strong bigs I've had in the past, but his BH/Passing is phenomenal and he has been unstoppable, shooting over 65% from the field. Maybe I'm looking too much into it, but I attribute it to how well he handles it and passes it.

Thanks all for the feedback. It's what I would have guessed, I was just kinda worried about the 48 SB.

Cub, I'm not trying to be mean here but you seem to pose these types of questions a lot. It's almost like, best case, you're seeking validation from the HD community for the choices you're making and worst case, you're letting the community influence the choices you aren't sure of yourself. You've won titles at high D1 so you obviously know what you're doing. Man, you're a great coach, go with your gut and don't look back.
