That does work, the issue is that you need to decide right now if you want to train bigs or guards- It is reasonable to train one on one for forwards as you have suggested, as training IS is really good for all players, even for guards it's valuable if you want to play Look Inside or Low Post. But if you want to focus on bigs, you'll want to train rebounding and inside defense as well, which is C/PF (or just C for ID) rather than PF/SF, and you'll want to play bigs in your league games to do that. If you train guards you'll need to train Passing and Pressure (for OD) and you'll need them to play PG or PG/SG for that. Training passing on big men is good for them, but quite slow and requires playing them out of position. So I would decide right now which I'm going to focus on, and then only focus on one group or the other, and selling the trainees from the group you aren't training and buying veterans to fill in for those positions.

The question is, once I get my Starting SF and PF there 48 (which CAN be done in one game) and get the Back Up SF and PF close to 48 Minutes with the second game (Scrimmage that won't matter if I win or lose)... I can then take my PG and C and play them at SF and PF for a game to grab Training Minutes?

That will work fine. :)

I might not get all 5 Prospects a full 48 this way, but my Starting SF (Meert) and PF (Chestnut) should get 48 easy, with Back Up SF (Morrissey) and PF (M. Waugh) grabbing the bulk in the next game. Then C (Mark) can take PF while (Chestnut) takes his C and PG (Hanson) can take SF while (Meert) runs the Point.

If you play "Stricly Follow Depth Chart" and have your trainees at Starter, Back-up and Reserve they will all play 48 mins. Unless They foul-out or get injured.

If I do this right, and no one comes out (Fouls, Injuries) then I just got Starter SF (Meert), Starter PF (Chestnut), Starter C (Mark), Starter PG (Hanson), Back Up Power Forward/Center (Waugh) all 48 Minutes (with the actual SF/PF types getting this easily) and even get the Vetern 30 Year Old Morrisey 48 as well.

Your catching on. :)

In this way, all 5 Prospects get Full Training (and an old guy) for the Week... and Forward One On One isn't bad for Guards since it can help Driving, Inside Scoring which a Guard can use. Sounds like a legit plan... just want to make sure it works.

:D !!!!!

Now the problem will be getting all 5 to train when I need to do Guard stuff for Hanson/Meert... eck!

What you could do is when you train PG/SG stuff play your insiders in the scrim. This means that it won't effect your league posistion. (Since you have 3 inside players you'll have to play one in a league game sadly).
