Well for centers, you have to do this:

Lots of ID, RB and 1 on 1 for SF/PF
Then lots of PA

And that's it. They play on PG/SG in offense and PF/C on defense.

For outside players:

Lots of 1 on 1 for SF/PF, JS and OD (and a bit of PA and JR)
Then lots of IS

Basically you take a traditional skill from every position and switch it up between them (IS for inside players, PA for outside players) while also lowering salaries. So PA goes to inside players and IS goes to outside players. Not to mention you don't need HoFs for that; MVP is more than enough, and Superstar is also ok in some cases.

I posted an idea like this two seasons ago without fearing anyone would copy it because I knew everyone and their mother are so fixated on Look inside. There are some teams that are exceptions to this, but they are already working on their idea.

That said, I don't say my idea is the best and I will beat LI easily. I'm working on it and will see the results after 5-6 seasons. That's why I'm so excited about it - it's something new noone else tried and maybe it will work.

For this to workout all players must have RB...cuz if they are playing bigs on offence or defence (one or the other) and switching on the other end...for 1/2 the game they determine rebound rate...

But you determine the rebound rate for other 1/2 of the game...yes, the outside players who will play on PF and C in offense won't have any offensive rebounds, but your inside players, who occupy PG and SG position, will!

RB is the most expensive inside skill for players listed as guards....IF their IS/ID/RB all go high...or any of them....then SB also adds salary (and they list as SF...depending on the build)]

The plan for a guard is to have no more than 7 in all inside skills except IS.

the only way though for that player to not end up listing as PG is to keep down his JS/HA/DR....which highly limits his offence...which can be ok in a patient...so I can see working taht angle a bit.....

By keeping down his JS and especially his OD, the player won't ever be listed as a PG, so you can train his PA to 20 if you want. HA and DR without OD above 10 also won't make any impact on salary.
Take a C with these skills (salary ~115k):

7, 7
7, 1
1, 1
10, 18
18, 10

Salary stays the same if HA, DR and PA are either 1 or 18 (all three at once of course). When you go to 19, he changes to PG and his salary goes up 20%. However, the key is to keep down OD and JS.

So the key here is his C Heydar Vahedi who's able to play PG offensively (and C defensively

yep!
If I remember correctly, he has 17 OD and ID, 16 or 17 in JS and IS, and that's pretty good for a player.

A situation, very similar to the one when Hana plays PG in Czech NT...

Heydar Vahedi was defending a sf, not a c..

An interesting win by Tehran, I would love to see the skills of his players.

If you look at who played which position in offense and defense and pair that with match ratings, it's quite easy to do this...

Not a lot of managers can play like this. Anyway I would like to see their skills, because you can't be sure what skills they have.

Heydar Vahedi was defending a sf, not a c.. :)

With 17 OD and ID, I think it doesn't matter who to defend, because he can defend again anyone ;)
