i go with 8-9 and put him 5-8. Jumpshot then would be around 12-13.

yea I have had a 12 Js 5 JR Power forward, he obviously score well in a competitive D3 and just hitting long range jumper like nothing.

he once put up a 30 pts quarter to help me come back from a 10 pt lead deficit.

the issue with power forward is you need a good IS to score as well or his JS and JR wont matter.

roughly: (based on my training plan)

13, 13, 8, 7, 7, 8, 15, 15, 15, 7

give me the flexibility to run inside and outside offenses just as effectively. the problem is the time to get the Jr and primaries without training into the 25++

and not sure its worth it to train given that I have seen the market keep crashing and the prices of premier power forward has been historically low compare to SFs and guards.

its not my dream PF, its just his initial skill and roughly calculated for the type of training im about to do.

beside you dont need high OD for a PF... either have enough so that he can play at SF or 7 is quite enough since you are not going to face an outside PF every day...

I would rather have him do well against majority of PFs and be mediorce against a really good PF and be paranoid and have him cancel out the other team's best player and be mediorce against the rest.

sorry my bad,actually i couldnt find an appropriate word.
regarding the PF skills i think that the skills which i suggested will be equally good against an inside PF coz i have not changed his ID,IS or reb.moreover he will have a better defense with a higher SB.
moreover at the height of a P,it is really difficult to train him to 13 JR.it will take a hell long time.

to be honest i though so also a long time,but since i go for OD for both of my big, i got lot more succesful and OD 8 ID 12 bigs could even compete on BBB level(and those two played roughly 40 min for me last season.

=.= its only 1 level of difference between 7 and 8...

beside if you guys bother reading my projected skills, he will be having at least 8 OD since his outside skills is already very good cept Passing.

I still think a PF should have enough ID to deal with all these LI tactics these days.

different philosophy I guess. I have had a OD 9 C before and he is pretty much a lock down defender guaranteed to get a couple of steals each game.

another reason to up OD is maybe when you rotate defender or have him being a help defense, he would actually help out.
