So next season i'll be changing from guard training to inside training, so i will be training centers. I'm just doing it because i want to make my guards more well rounded. Because of that they will be be primarily inside defenders, so on defense my C will be playing SF, my SF will be playing PF and my PF will be playing C. Well i'm trying to figure out based on who i have, who should play what position or if i should just sell them a buy new players.

Player 1:

Player 2:
Weekly salary: $ 21 282

Game Shape: strong
Jump Shot: prolific Jump Range: proficient

Player 3:
Weekly salary: $ 18 477

DMI: 247000

My initial thought was to have player 2 playing PF and C on defense and player 3 as my SF and PF on defense. Well I suppose there is also a 4th player that could be an option, here he is.

anyone have any thoughts, am i on the right track? or should i just sell them all and restart with new guys?

The first two guys are pretty old and don't have the best guard skills. Depending on what offence you want to do, the second guy might be ok as an SF, defensively switched to PF/C, despite his low passing and handling.

Honestly, I would consider getting rid of the first guy as he is so old and will be dropping skills. Also, the 4th guy isn't very good and fairly old, so you might want to offload him too (I don't like to have anyone with less than inept passing).

I think the best course of action would be to sell players 1,2, and 4. Then keep player 3 as a true PF and see what you can find for SFs once the playoff deadline passes. If you can't find anyone, consider keeping player 2 and playing him at SF, defensively switched to PF or C (depending on where your trainee at C is defending).
