I have a player on my team that is listed as a SG, but very close to be listed as an SF. I would love to see such players listed as SG/SF, G, F or PF/C if their skillset allows them to play both positions at almost the same level.

But the listed positions only control salary and capping, and AFAIK don't have anything to do with how well the player would perform in a given position.

Knecht is only asking for a labeling. Just like in NBA, where some players are "C", others are "C / PF", some are "F", others are "SG / SF" or "SF / SG".

So whenever a player is close to another position, give him a new "label", so that coaches scouting those players realize he´s not a one dimensional guy.

Maybe I should hire you as my assistant for clarifying my posts. Thank you very much.

If you can not tell that, maybe you should take time to learn more about the game..? It also depends quite a lot on what you want for your player types for certain tactics.

I'm just trying to understand why he suggested it. It wasn't clear from his post.

I'd file it under the "not detrimental, but not terribly useful" category of suggestions. But that's just me.

What about when you look at other teams players, as you cannot see their skills and stats can be misleading.

I do not see really what you are aiming at.

Anyway, also in RL, this "label" does not indicate what he could be good at, but in what positions he has actually played. if that would be the case here, I would agree on "mixing" labels.

With the new change you just scroll down the page and you can see exactly what positions that he player. It even tells you if the player has been getting trained or not. Played 12 and 16 minutes as SG then 48 in the scrimmage at PG then you can be fairly sure he is.

How should players between PG and C or PG and PF be displayed? Or even players with more than 3 positions (salary wise)?
