What you named as the "preferred" position is the position with the highest salary amongst all possible positions. This does not rely on your opinion or on any manager's opinion but on in-game calculations that can be approached closely by external sites or applications.

It's also a good indicator to scout your opponents, so, even if a player always plays PG or SG, you can guess he has some better inside skills if he is listed as C or PF. In my opinion, it should be used to scout opponents, not to make your lineup. Another example, if a manager has 4 PG/SG in his starting lineup, you can guess his outside offense will rock while his inside game will be really weak.

To actually answer your question "what is js and what does that have to do with changing the preferred postion":

JS is short for Jump shot. It's the skill that causes the main difference between a center and a PF; a PF needs some decent Jump shooting in order to perform well. If he doesn't have a decent jump shot, he will perform better as a Center. That is why the game calls your player a Center, so you know it's probably best to play him as Center. If you wish to disregard this advice and play him as PF, you are free to do so.

If you compare it to the NBA, think about Josh Smith. He used to be played at SF with the Hawks and Pistons, even though he performs better and prefers to play at PF. However, due to roster limitations the coach decided to go against his preferred position and play him at SF.
