FBCB Question

[Balldog]

In the FOFC FBCB I have a little lineup dilemna coming up for the next season. I have 4 solid post defenders but only one solid perimeter defender. Willis Kremer has started every game of his career (101) at PF/C for us averaging 9.8 PPG and 6 RPG, I am thinking about moving him to SF for this season. He seems like he could be a good fit there. Below are his ratings before Training Camp, I think if I target PRD, HND, and PAS at 10 he should be up to a 50 before the season. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Willis Kremer, PF
6'11" 217 lbs, Senior
INS - 96 (A)
JPS - 21 (D)
FTS - 58 (C)
3PS - 0 (F)
HND - 35 (C)
PAS - 41 (C)
ORB - 35 (C)
DRB - 87 (A)
PSD - 87 (B)
PRD - 37 (C)
STL - 5 (F)
BLK - 51 (C)
QKN - 33
JMP - 45
STR - 56
STA - 58

I don't like him at SF at all. His athletic skills are very poor, which would hurt him at C/PF too, but at least he has the offensive skill for that, and he certainly does not for SF. I'd rather have a 50/50 at SF than a 96/21.

If you must put him at SF, then I would target CND, PRD, and HND. His stamina is a big issue. I train my guys in CND every year until they hit the 90's. Before that, I was losing alot of close games because my guys couldn't play at the end. You'll also want his quickness higher. If he's at SF that INS rating ain't gonna matter unless he can beat his man to the hoop.

I think you should cut him.

I'd also be wary of him at SF because of his quickness.

I think my guard dominated offense should play you guys this year.

I don't think that guy makes a good SF at all. His ball handling skills will hurt him a lot more at SF than in the post, and his quickness probably will too, not to mention that he will spend more time defending the perimeter as a SF than he would defending the post. Course, if you have no other options, you do what you have to. With the quality player OU has had lately I'm sure this could be the weak link and your other 4 guys will pick him up quite nicely.

I think I will have to look elsewhere for a SF. Depth wise this is probably the most depth I have had, 8 guys can play...not counting the 5 freshman that are coming in. We just have a glaring hole at SF, I need to take a better look at the freshman I suppose.
