I can relate to this. I often have to wait until I'm out of the Cup to be able to really train my players out of position, and even then I tend to sit them for regular season matches so that I can play them 48 minutes in a scrimmage. (My PGs look funny posting up at the center position...) Creating some sort of SF training option would do two things. First, it would help us focus training on a SF without either diluting training by having to train at least 3 positions per week or forcing us to play a SF out of position. And second, it would let us put a C/PF or PG/SG at SF for a game or two to train out of position instead of doing something more extreme, like having to play a PG at C/PF to, say, train up shot blocking or rebounding.

This would also help with the shortage of SFs on the TL and the inflated prices they tend to sell at compared to the other positions right now.

So count me as a vote for SF training!

I don't agree with you.

It'll be too easy to train SF after this change.

i would agree with that opion from him ;)

Because it is not fair for the guys who already train SF, which is pretty valueable because of the more difficult training. Which gets less valueable when it becomes easier, and thre are also other skills a SF must have instead of defense, and it would make training pretty easy if you could train everything one position at every position, then you could argue also thats a center could pass a little bit and you never see tim duncan running as a point guard.

i believe first i understand it the first time to post this proposal ;)

And a sg/sf/pf/c needs passing to why he must play Pointguard to get optimal training? etc.

So making good Forwards is difficult, but not just for you even for the other managers, so it is fair in the end.

But maybe you don't read what i write.

muhahah get the users fighting amognst themselves instead of against the BBs.. i like it ;)

but in all seriousness... once again we do face the issue of change causing unfairness because teams had expectations about the rules being one way and now changing.... sigh.. i wish i had a time machine so all these could be fixed.

yeah it is hard for SF trainers, but also they got the chanche to keep pretty good Sf, or sell then for a good value ;)

So it hits you at the end to.

But if you change it now, you punish the trainer who did it already because it was pretty easy, for other managers to clone there SF which they have trained in playing them in wrong positions. Thats reduce their value, which adjust the lost game they got sometimes why they play their player at wrong position.

PS: i should up with your beginning post, when you sayy you was my opion and in the end it wasn't mine ;) Thats sounds more like a fed ad which ended in the wrong forum.

every change pisses off someone. it only has to be announced well in advance, so that nobody gets screwed up by last minute adjustments.

should be pretty well announce before ... Because to train a SF could take years, and when you start a lot with defence and another one maybe with JS, he will reach the other one level easy.

And actually there are also good SF, sometimes they go from a C trainer to a Guard trainer in their development, sometimes teams change there training good etc.

I don't see the need for a change. Which is totally impossible when i understand what you write, so i had really hard problems to understand you.
