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)

I think the PF is the hardest position to train too.

PF is just really good Inside skills with some JS and OD. A 'real' SF needs training in all postions not just Inside skills and some guard skills.

My last and current 2 trainees are a 6'7 big man with amazing outside skills and med/ave/resp ID/IS/RB which I hope to improve to Proficients minimum and a 6'6 guy who had great ID/IS and HD considering his age/height.

I agree with sentence 1. Find yourself a 6'10 PG that has outside skills or a 6'4 guy who is triple prominent in the inside skills and devote 2-3 seasons on the skills he is missing - to add to the sentence, pay for someone else to train up the hardest skills and pay more if they have been patient enough to do this on difficult heights.

I think it was Josef that said why does JBM train 3 SF's?
1) Because he can :D
2) Because the finished players have to be the most valuable when you want to sell on.
3) Because you would hope when finished you could play a PG a Center and your 3 super SF's and vary the tactics enough to really be a force to be reckoned with.

NO, i don't think that. Do you know Milos Leković? This is a 'real' (how you say) PF. What's the problem, buy the player which is 18 yo, good, initial skills and to train all skills him to, for example 11-12 lvl. Manager must remember about buying good coach.
