All guards on first team

I would take Austin Freeman and Ashton Gibbs of 1st team and replace them w/ Rick Jackson and Brad Wanamaker. This clearly shows that selections are based solely on offensive production.

I prematurely shot my wad, if you will, on what was supposed to be a dry run, and now it looks like I have something of a mess on my hands.
