Well I just havent got a clue! Why does a SG not need Passing?

I don't say that a SG does not need passing... but a respectable passing and handling is probably good enough even for best SGs.
From what you say PG and SG seem to be the same position.

In my team:
C with respectable passing: 4.4 assists per game (24.7 min average)
PG with respectable passing: 4.5 assists (30.3 min)

I think at the Allstar level training C/PF is more efficient (I am a guard trainer) as you can currently build 60-70k salary centres and to build an equivalent PG (wage wise) you by the sounds of it need a player with higher potential....

You know, managers training centers complain because their salary increases too fast compared to guards :)

Maybe in the past, as I've written somewhere, I've seen a center similar to one of my SF (monoskill both), my SF is 20k/week, the center was 14k/week

You know that the salary formula is very complex. For example, two similar centers, with difference only in SB can have very different salaries...
I guess it is even more difficult to compare different positions... but it is a fact that centers (mainly Brazilian) have all the highest salaries in BB :)

Lol, so it should be the weigthed average of the important skills per position if I understand it right.

Going by what is being speculated, a Center will have his potential on the weighted average of important skills for a Center (inside) and a SF will have a wider array of skills to hit the ceiling. Which means a Center will have a lower total skill potential than a SF.

But what if I attempt to convert my Center to a SF? Will the potential be recalculated from a Center's to a SF's once the position changes?

I am aware of that thread. I understand that Charles clarified there potential acts as the cap on the total accumulation of skills, rather than a limit on how far you can actually take one skill.

However here they are speculating that different positions have a different potential threshold, even though the potential level is the same. Which is to say a SF will have a higher total accumulation of skills as compared to a Center because his 'important' skillset is bigger than the Center's.

But that makes absolutely no sense.
If you are not going to train a guy (and consequenty are not looking for a very young one), why do you care what his potential is? The only thing you are going to achieve by buying a guy with high potential and not train him is to spend alot more money for exactly the same results.

It seems to me that lots are people are mistaking potential for some kind of magic skill that will turn every player with a high one into a superstar.
