To some, starting isn't the end all be all of the college choice. Making an obvious pick here, I don't think
Pettiford is all that upset about not starting given where his team is. He's behind 3 seniors, but he still 
plays 25 mins/game, and all 4 Gs are within 1.5ppg of each other in scoring.

Previous point, no way in hell do I want Kiyan and JJ starting together; that team will rival the 
Girard/Buddy backcourt in awful defense, no one else on the team will get shots, and you have 
no true ball handler.  I suppose you won't have to worry about turnovers, because they are going 
to shoot so much they won't get the chance to turn it over.  :)

To original topic, get Ballard.  Just get him.  A statline of 10 pts, 10 rebs, 2 blks works.  Fill in the 
offense around him, but IF you're getting centers who hit 70% FGA, at least get them shots, ok?  Why
bother if you aren't going to feed the post?  I hate offenses that are built around crappy shooters
from deep.  Just score.  If you can score 80ppg and almost all of it is via points in the point and 
midrange 2s, who cares.  Gimme the points, AND the ability to stop somebody, and you'll be fine.
You don't need a lineup of shooters that can't stop anybody.  That team goes nowhere.
