If we agree PF/C skills mean Rebounds, Inside defence, Inside scoring and Blocking.
Blocking: last in guards priority list of skills
Inside scoring: WEll, if u want your guard to score a lot, It might be useful
Inside defence: I dont think this is very important for guards
Rebounding: This depends on your team. If your forwards and centers are good rebounders, I wouldnt spend time to train this, but if your guard is tall he can get a few rebounds. I'd say this isnt useless skill for a guard.

height doesn't matter within the match, just for training skills.

I meant that if he's tall its easier to teach him rebounding and so he could gget some rebounds as a guard too.
I said it unclearly, sorry

if i remember right, bbs always declared they want to have those multiskillers. and its common sense that passing/dribbling and even od is quite usefull for the big guys.
so my point of view is: why the 'big men skills' should not be usefull for the guards? i always tried to balance my team. e.g my team is actually ranked 4th in total rebounds in my league and i have no reboundskill over 12.
i think rebound is a very usefull skill, but still i wouldnt raise it over 8 for the guards, cause it also raises the guard's salary a lot.

i dont know what impact insideshot really has. at least i dont want an atrocious there. i have good expiriences with insideshot on my guards if i play 'look inside' or 'lowpost'. my team doesnt have a great gameflow. so my guards take some shots when i play inside.

but i dont want to have a sharpshooter that stands still and lloks what the others will do if the ball doesnt go in. my players have to hustle! ;-)

if i look on my total salary compared to my leage opponents and my current standing (12-4) i guess im on the right track. but still i dont know. ;-)

cheers

i had an other priority list then the poster before:

Rebounding: i think the most useful skill, but also the most expensiv one

Shot blocking: Guards block more then big guys, or at least on the same level and they don't get paid for this skill - so if i would train blocking then for guards.

Inside defence: Hard to tell how much it brings, most works with OD.

Inside Shot: Nearly makes no difference in scoring output in my team, even with extrem differences.

Thats true they want multi skilled players to avoid monsters of 400k+ salary that we find on C's. Its pretty unclear for the guards, but i guess other than rebounding guards doesnt need a lot more from big men skills.

Also talking about multi skilled players but still SG should be SG and the C must be a C. After all they are 2ndaries...

No argument here, but those multiskilled high lvl players are rare and so expensive...especially if we are talking about SF's...

hmm, i dont want to highjack the tread. the question was how important are 'big men' skills for the guards and i think i made my point clear. please lets not create another 'wendon-is-god-thread' ;-)

if u take in account that players - independent of position - can be born with a respectable skill, i guess in it can not be false to have at least mediocre/average secondaries. that has nothing to do with (high lvl) sf's

edit: still i would not train those secondaries in priority. i would try to buy them. and if we talk about mediocre/average it isnt that expensive.

To PG, I demand rebound then inside shot, Jason Kidd got many rebound right?

To SG, I need inside shot then rebound, the point is his role is to score and I am playing look inside tactic.

It depends on what kind of player you need to suit your tactic.
