I have a power forward with respectable passing, and three point gaurds with respectable passing, but my point gaurds like to shoot. But at times, my power forward does more passing than my point gaurds, i always thought that point gaurds should do the most passing, i'm glad that i have a passing big man, but i want him to shoot the ball more than pass. What do you think?

well, obviously your guards get more open looks than your PF in those situations. Having a passing PF helps a lot, but respectable passing is rather on the lower end of the PG spectrum. Ultimately, your PF is just as good as a passer as your PGs, but his opponents have lower Outside Defense, so less of his passes get stolen. Increase your PGs Passing and you'll get a more "natural" distribution of passes.

Thanks, i never thought about training my point gaurds in that area, i'll do that later in the year but right now after this weeks training, i want to either focus on outside defense for wingmen, or gaurds. Or rebounding for centers and or power forwards.

The orthodox way of training in BB is to train either guards or big men. Not both.

I would say that respectable passing is very good for a division 5 team.
I would also say that there are many ways to train your team.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Except if you want to improve the same skill of different types of players. What is wrong with playing your centre at PG for a match to train passing? It is certainly an important skill for all players.
