Robert Maheu or John Lee?  I've been starting Maheu because my first team is less than stellar offensively.  But Lee has a huge defensive advantage and should be similar if not a little bit better on the boards.  Not really sure what I should do at this point.

Worth pointing out they're already playing equivalent minutes.  It's just who's on the first team and who's on the second.

I like John Lee a little better to start.  it's a toss up though.

Without a doubt I would go with Lee because you play a Trianle/Press and because of his ATH 78, DEF 79, PASS 38, WE 56, and ST 77 compared to Maheu's numbers of 38, 42, 23, 47, & 71. For me it's a no brainer. The slight IQ disadvantage you will more than make up for with the significant Ratings differential.

Lee is the far better player. Do you feel that extra .6 ppg that Maheu has provided is worth the drop in Ath and Def? Lee is actually ahead by .1 rebounds...
I know I am accused of being one of the ath whores, but this is not close to me.

I'm with dac and court, I don't think this is close. Lee is the much better player, his huge ath/D edge more than makes up for any edge Maheu may have in other areas.

Does it make any difference to you that part of the reason I decided to put Lee on the 2nd squad is that my backup PF is a senior holdover from before I took the program over and has 9 ATH and 2 Def?

With a 9 ATH & a 2 DEF, that guy wouldn't even play on my old D111 team. I would have cut him a long time ago. He's not even worth keeping around for emergency duty because of injuries. I'd play use Embry in his place.

Yeah, let's just ignore the fact that Brooks is leading my team in rebounding, has the best FG% of anyone scoring 5+ points per game, and is the only one of my top 5 scorers who isn't a guard.
