I’d say it’s so tough that do so, you’d probably have to sacrifice training any other position to a level where you’d even be able to make it to a top division in large country without having a ton of cash to spend on the TL since the SF training would mean training both outside and inside skills, and neither long enough to get a guard or a center to a salary anywhere near $30k or even $20k for that matter.


simple trick to avoid that handicaps, if you are guard trainer search for a "small" center who was trained to ~20ans in the big man skills, and make him to a Guard trainee. if you train Centers you could make the opposite with big guards, they aren't that expensive and you normally find one if you aren#t totally impatient.


This is by far the most easiest way to train your own SF in a competitive league. In fact, is what most SF trainers do in my league (TV income: 154k. Just trying to "measure" of the league) with some very rare switching(1 to 3 weeks a season if so).

Switching positions for training does have an painful and prolongated time of non-competitive gaming situation, unless you play on a non-competitive league.

I was lucky enough to grab a pretty sweet draft pick a few seasons back. It was actually my first draft here, which makes it even luckier. The first two seasons I trained him soley at the guard positions and am now training him for atleast 2 seasons on the inside. It has allowed me to improve my team elsewhere and when it is all said and done, I will have a SF that is pretty impressive.

If I had to begin training a SF now, it would be very tough to compete. My thoughts are, that yes they may be the toughest position to train properly. But are a position that if trained properly from the very first days of getting a team, can be very effective. I hope that makes sense...

wrong thred, dude!

anyway, hard to find an answer. ptb has no focus. just take a look were the strenght of your apponent is. if he's stronger inside maybe chose a 2-3, if he is stronger outside maybe chose 3-2. even m2m could work very well.
vs pressing there isnt really THE good tactic. try to get players with good passing and handling on the court and hope for good. pressing weekens his inside d and rebounding a lot, maybe lowpost or look inside work better than other tactics, cause u have a better chance for the offensiveboard, but i dont know

you are 100% correct

great idea to find a good sf a 20 year old who has been trained well but is the wrong height for his current position

it will be a long term project and this guy will probably only be scrimmaging for you for a long time but in the end you could have someone sensational for a bargain price

i had a guy like this Ariel Feldman (12207134) Small Forward 6'10' with developing guard skills and already solid inside and outside defence but i gave up on the project as too slow for me (but I did make $300,000 profit selling him :) )

Is this fine I have a 24 yr old SF that both inside and outside defense are average and also gets incredible shot blocks but one of the players that make a lot of turnovers in my country (10229495)

And I have this SF that i am going to make a PG has weak inside defense but other things are pretty much OK (11010729)
