The thing that is the real problem is the thing that was identified by the very first post in this thread. Whatever player you want to train you have to train him as a C or a PG and that simply isn't realistic. There is exactly ONE single position training that I am aware of that isn't C or PG and that is JR for SG. Why is there no skill at all that is best served by playing as a forward as some sort? Why are PGs best at everything?

I think that it is because the more you go to the middel of the list PG-SG-SF-PF-C, the more the skills have to be divided over the entire range.
if you take the outer ends, PG and C, they have most single position traingtypes, because they have most specific need of skills...

wingmen and forwards and guards and even teamtrainings do exist as well, and are perfectly okay as trainingtypes.

There isn't any type of training that you would only trani your SF in. ANY type of training you want to give to your SF, is usefull for at least 1 other position on the field, and I think that is why you don't find single position training for SF.

Not saying it is good, or supposed to stay that way, or any other thing one might try to make of my answer. It's just an answer to the question why there is no single position training for SF...

as you say it: a littlebit easier.

Getting single position training for SF spot would make it a lot easier.

I'm not sure if this is something you prefer or not, let us know, and all other people training SFs too, please tell us how you think about it.

I think the training system is fine as it is. I'm training SFs and I find it enjoyable (for now at least).

Because right now you don't have to use him at the wrong position. Training a SF means that 90% you have to use him at his weakest position and you have the outcome of your training at the deep end.

I planned to train a SF but i change my mind, theorically the player need 83 weeks to be the SF i want.
Here the training position :

1 : 15
2/3 : 9
3/4 : 2
4/5 : 20
5 : 22
Team : 15

So i could use him at the SF spot only 26 weeks. So basically i will pay him a lot for almost no real impact till i finish his training it's a little bit too hardcore.

data like this is what we need to show people around. I seen too often times the SF being the weakest player in national teams or all star starters. This are squads composed of large group where all stars comes from the 16 teams in the division and national comes from whoever is from that nation. Meaning when you pick a giant poll of players you rarely to never come out with SF being nothing but the worst of the starters.

The data you provided shows why that's the case, simply it takes much much longer it isn't worth it to train SF. Which makes sense why national teams cant pick good SF or all star teams. The disparity is large enough its almost like Centers being on average 2.5 times more expensive than all the other positions. Change has to be made

I was going to answer but Cydius post is brilliant(maybe some more weeks on the PG position i would say).

The hardest part it comes when you put him as a PG to train OD(which takes lot of time) you can lose lots of matchs only because your offensive flow is not working or imagine your SF has a weak pass that will hurt and maybe you will have to train some passing to dont suffer when you put him to train OD in the PG position.

- I suggest a change on the OD training positions to make it more reliable for the SF's.

Totally agree. What about the posibility of unipositional training of ID and OD in the SF spot?

Most of the time we have to train SF at unipositional training, but when it comes the time to train jump shoot, we dont have unipositional training option. It would be grate too to train unipositional Jump shoot, rising JR and IS as secondary skills, as with the training (3/4). Buying new trainable players just to train SFs in their last training cicle its an extra economic effort. Otherwise you will loose training posibilities.

Training SF in OD is a big deal, especially since so many SFs are really JS freaks with just enough rebounding and IS or ID skill to play SF.

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

if they are JS freaks with barely enough ID and reb, then that is because managers create them that way.

even IF there would be a single position training available for SF, then they STILL would be the least on the national teams.
Guards and inside men can be trained in 1 area, for SF you need to train 2 areas, so the SF will always be weaker in both areas then the other players, and thus being the weakest player on the team.

If someone is training a PF or C, there is no way someone is going to be able to get the Sf the same level of inside training, as he also needs to take care of outside training.

If people wheren't so focussed on trying to improve (or make it easier) the training part, they might have noticed SFs playing at PG (for instance, and I also think playing at C, but didn't test that yet,) DO perform well when the right tactics are chosen. So in fact that already is an improvement in the direction that is being asked here, it just needs to be discovered.
