I'm not saying that it's a common build for a SF in D.IV. I'm also not saying that a SF has to be this good to be competitive in D.IV. He asked for the ideal build, so I thought of what would be the best build that still had an affordable salary for D.IV.

Clearly, you could get by with lower numbers in almost every skill and have a very good SF for that level of competition...but that wasn't the question. If I'm wrong and he was asking for a build that would be competitive and that he could train easily or find on the TL for cheap, then I'm sorry?

I didn't think that was what he was looking for. If it is, it's easy enough to figure out. Just take 2-3 points off of every skill and end up with something more like: 10/8/10/8/10/8 8/8/6/5 4/6 and you have a guy who will be solid but not dominant in any (D.IV) offense for a salary of only around $12k.

I think the ideal SF should have at least 15 OD and 14 ID. Last season I had teams who played a PG at SF and some other teams who played a PF/C there. So, I really think you have to have a guy who can defend both the outside and the inside. I also think a 15 JS 9 JR with 13 Handles and 13 driving with 12 IS is a must. He has to be able to burn the teams who run 3 bigs from the outside and also beat up the combo G's at the SF spot in the inside. and I would say 10 passing at the least.
I also like some rebounding on my SF, maybe 9........
Here is my SF trainee....salary is 24K
Jump Shot: prolific Jump Range: strong
Outside Def.: wondrous Handling: sensational
Driving: sensational Passing: prominent
Inside Shot: prominent Inside Def.: prolific
Rebounding: average Shot Blocking: mediocre
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: mediocre

He is only 22(just turned)....I will be giving him IS tomorrow and ID and Rebounding until the allstarbreak.
