My understanding of Push the Ball is that it is a fast paced version of base offense, where for the first several seconds of the shot clock your team tends to look for an early scoring opportunity (especially off of defensive rebounds and transition opportunities), if your team gets stumped in that initial attack, the offense reverts to a slow paced offense where it becomes more like Patient and your best outside player becomes the focus. It also seems that during the initial seconds of attack, there's alot of inside shots created, where nearing the 2nd half of the shotclock, it becomes more outside based. My theory anyways, I run it alot but seems to hinge on having a decent inside/outside SF as well.

Yea, I don't have an inside/outside SF yet, I'm training one right now though. So I should run motion then?

Motion would be a good idea, alternatively you might find a good fit with Princeton, or maybe Outside Isolation.

Newbie training question...

...A player can play in any position on the floor regardless of what he is classified at. Now, if we train a skill at a specific position (let's say C), does it only train the players classified at C, or will it train PF classified players as well as long as they logged minutes at the C position during the week?

It only trains the players that have played the Center position that particular week. It doesn't matter what position they're listed as.

On top of that, you want to make sure that the player(s) you're focused on training play at least 48 minutes at that position during the week.

Awesome. I've been doing that so far, but I'd also like to train players out of position after my original targets are done. Right now I'm Training my frontcourt in inside defence, but they are almost all done. Next time on scrimmage day I could move some sg's up to start to get time in too then.
