How would you play these 3 guys:

Yr. Pos. A SPD REB DE BLK LP PE BH P WE ST DU FT TOT
Adolph Betts Jr. PG 58 70 1 67 4 27 26 72 79 52 79 58 C 593
Michael Michalik Jr. PG 28 83 12 43 16 1 69 78 74 54 75 50 B- 583
Jeffrey Vegas Jr. SG 41 61 2 45 3 68 89 80 77 64 76 42 B- 648


I've been starting Vegas at the 1 and Betts at the 2 with Michalik backing both up.  I think I have the right starters, but the alignment is from last year.  Betts has advanced enough in his BH/P that I wonder if his speed might make him the better PG.  Also know that some people seem to think it's more efficient to have a scorer play the 2.  Vegas is easily my team's leading scorer at 23.0 PPG.

I personally would start Michalik as your PG, and Vegas as your 2.  Betts' higher passing is not significantly higher to justify the loss in Per scoring rating to Michalik.  Also with the 83 Spd Michalik is a better choice for a drive and dish, spot up shooter at point, with Vegas able to play either a post up, slasher or spot up jump shooter role.

Betts doesn't start over Michalik because he has slightly better passing.  He starts because he has 30 extra athleticism and 25 DEF.

I'd have Vegas coming off the bench as well, with Michalik at point and Betts as the 2 guard.  But I hate having slow pg's and obviously yours is doing just fine in that role.  If it aint broke, etc etc.

I disagree. I think you have it right dahs, just switch Vegas to the 2 and start Betts as your PG.

I'd start Betts and Vegas (as you're currently doing), and I'd keep switching them at PG / SG depending on where your opponent is stronger offensively. If your opponent's PG is better offensively than his SG, put Betts at PG.

We play zone, so matchups are irrelevant.  It's entirely a question of maximizing offensive efficiency.

Of course, this is true only on the defensive end.  Against man and even press, I could consider moving them around to set Vegas up against the inferior defender...
