If only I had known when I started what I knew now. In my first season I had a young 6'4" C. If I had just kept and trained him...sigh.

i very much agree with u. training SFs almost implies u need to sacrifice ur result. so it's best to done when u have no pressure on promotion. u also need to be seriously determined to make others jealous of u having such a good player (this is the case after two years though...)

Training SF's isn't as bad with defensive matchups. When u play them at PG u can go with SG types at SG and SF and play an outside tactic. When u play them at C u can play inside players at SF and PF and play inside tactics.

Training my SF I rarely get to use him at his correct position. He is always playing either PG or C. So even though I am training a SF I still need to purchase a SF for my team. I probably won't be able to use him at his correct position until I'm done training him when he's 25. This is the other major problem with SFs. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it and I should just sell him for many millions and train centers or guards.


Yes I know the feeling and it is is frustrating at times. I am already planning to stop training when mine SF is 23. He will not as good as he could be but at least he can start playing at SF :)

I'm not training SFs myself (yet), but I just wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to abstain from training 1 on 1 and JS as long as possible, and train the SF in these skills once everything else is where it should be. Because then, an SF could be finishedd training the "wrong" positions at about 21 and could then continue erasing his holes while playing SF.

The problem with that is that they SF will be bad at scoring for all those seasons further crippling your team. The most brutal thing is as someone already said that unlike every other player you NEVER get to play your SF in the correct position until you finish training them probably at age 23 or so. 5 seasons of your future "best" guy being inneffective. It is just cruel!

i am training a sf but at this stage i am not in a high enough league for it to cripple me, as i can choose which games to get my training mins in. i am hoping by the time i get to div II he will be 21 and at least be able to handle himself enough not to be the reason why i would lose games
