will players train faster if you just train C as opposed to C/PF?

Yes. The more positions you train, the slower individual players will train.

I don't think anyone knows the answer to that yet.

do you mean if you train rebounding and one player gets 24 mins at pf and 24 at center, is that different from 48 at center? In, that case the training would be the same.

He means if you just train C instead of both C and PF. We haven't be told how much of a gain it would be to train one position. Obviously it will be faster, but how much faster is for everyone to find out

I don't understand how the number of positions being trained matters. You could train centers at inside scoring with 2 players or train pf & c, 1 at each position, and have the same number of players being trained. I haven't seen anything to indicate those two situations would be different.

I interpreted the rules on this to only take into account the number of players being trained and the minutes that they play to matter.

You're right in your interpretation, but where you're getting mixed up is in the number of guys in your example. Training just C should be faster than doing C/PF because you are training more guys with C/PF than with C.

For example, I can easily get 2 guys 48 mins a week at center, or I could easily get 2 guys at C and 2 guys at PF. If the number of guys trained was the same, the training you choose wouldn't matter, but it's not.

yeah, that all makes sense.

I would have preferred to train just centers but rebounding is too important for inside players and you must train both pf/c together. Figured long term that would be an issue so I'm training both pf/c now. I'd be nice to see it changed so you could just train one or both if you choose. Figure that will cause more issues with small forwards, as most skill training has them grouped with inside, outside, or team training.

Maybe SF's will become like Wingers in HT, acting as a good second option for scoring. In BB, tho, they should also be able to contribute to defense. If lots of owners choose to train either C/PF or PG/SG, a niche market will emerge for SF trainers.
