i find it very easy to train my small forwards in both defenses (in different weeks, of course). being SF they can play PF or SG with relative ease

it much harder to train my PF in his lacking outside defense or my SG in inside defense

If you think so, then just slow the primary trainings down quite a bit.

But there still should be some option for single position SF training.


You know I agree, however with the slowdown in training it is unlikely to make much difference soon anyway. The best players in the game are likely to take an eternity to recreate now even with a decent MVP 18yo....

If the training speeds continue to be (even if they appear and in reality aren't) slower then the transfer market really make take a significant dive with clubs opting to stick with their existing players through fear that an investment of money plus time will only equal the players they currently have on their team.

Barriers in training creates opportunities to develop player, which have noone else.. do you want to steal chance to conguer titles for these which aren't focused on TL?

Great idea.

SF training and SF representation in the game engine needs some attention, IMHO.

which one?

sf training - it's hard to do while playing your sf at sf, unless you do team or 3 position trainings, which is prob far from efficient for most teams

sf in the GE - you can play a center at SF against an actual SF, with roughly comparable total skills, and be very successful. It's unrealistic.

The BB has gone on the record to state that training SFs is supposed to be challenging. I wouldn't keep my hopes up about single-position SF training.

I think the training aspect is challenging to a fault, and the SF GE aspect is a failure in representing the game of basketball.

Could be. Regardless, the process is the same for everyone. When you get accustomed to the idea that your SF is not going to have all the skills that he can potentially use, the current situation is much easier to swallow.

I personally think it's an asset of the game, not a liability: you have to make tough choices about the skills you want to forgo at the SF position. This can often be a tactical choice depending on how you're playing, or who you're playing.
