Training 2 positions is fine. It is slightly slower but in the end there is more profit to make. If you are going to train PG/SG I'd personally go with outside shooting for a few weeks and handling. OS trains jump range as primary and jump shot as secondary. Handling trains handling as primary and defense as secondary plus minimal driving. Give them some def and passing traing at end of season until they pop in that particular skill. Do this for about 5 seasons before selling and buying new trainees.

I did 2 position training for a season with average results. Sure you get a few guys poping each week but at the end of the season my trainees salaries had gone up by only 3-5k. Last season I had one of my trainees salaries go up by over 10k! from 5k - 16k. Much better results in my mind.

I would start with 2 position training if you are able to afford to get 5 ok trainees its good. After a couple of seasons u can sell a couple of your trainees off and improve other areas of your team. In my opinion 1 position training is better if your trainees have high potential and u want to create a couple of stars for your team and possibly train for the NT. Until your established both financially and team wise i would stick to 2 position training.

Thanks. I'll stick with two posistion training, with guards. I've got some good trainees on the way. I'll need six right. One to play PG and one to play SG for each game in the week? Is it better to have 5 so you can play someone else if they don't get enough minutes.

I was doing 6 when I was doing 2 position training. Just play them at backup SF if you are worried about gameshape. Plus a couple I were training were my top SF's anyway so they might even start a game at SF as well as 48mins at SG or PG

A level 4 trainer is good to start with try and get one on under 15k salary, try not to get into a bidding war for one just wait for the next available one. As for Doctor and PR possibly level 3 to start, maybe level 2 if u need to save money.
