If the whole point of making a player play out of position to get training at the position is that he needs experience at the position to train, then how the heck can a PG defend out of position and be getting “PG” training for the sake of PG defense??? Strange, no?

Perhaps he observes the guy defending him. :-)

I knew somebody was going to say something like that! From the first post:
(Maybe somebody’s going to say that a PG can learn how to defend a PG by being defended by a PG. Maybe. And maybe I’ll learn how to do brain surgery by observing a surgeon operate on my brain.)


Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

I would say that the NBA is more 1/4 offensive 3/4 defensive. Not that it makes a big difference.

Yeah yeah, I agree with your correction. Ever since Dennis Rodman retired...

Having your C run the pioint won't improve her passing and ball-handling, but doing passing and ball-handling drills will. This game doesn't have practices. So it is different form real life. There must be different ways to train then, no? The only thing you really improve in real games that is transferable to factors involved in the computer simulation of this game is experience.

I disagree about games being any part of drilling except that is where you hope to see your drills put into practice. I do agree that the game isn't reality and thus arguments for making
things ' realistic' dont hold much water for me.
I think they should revamp the training system and have offered my suggestions how to do it in other threads and to thr developers directly. I don't think they liked my ideas much.

Where are these threads you are mentioning? I would like to read your ideas.

I think that the whole Training function is undeniably very unrealistic and I believe it confuses newcomers and makes them leave.
