Ok I am training a SF at the same time I am training 2 PG's. Doing mostly OD/passing training right now with some JS and JR. My question is this starting out and building a new team. If I train these 3 guys for 2 or maybe 3 season are my PG's at that poing going to be good enough to play in league 3 or better so i can then begin to train my SF with some big men and get him some inside training. Understanding at this point my SF will be 20 or 21 but after 2 or 3 years I should have some pops in ID and IS too

Here is my SF prospect.



Weekly salary: $ 4 998

DMI: 20600
Age: 18
Height: 6'7" / 201 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: strong

Jump Shot: mediocre Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: mediocre ↑ Handling: awful
Driving: pitiful Passing: average
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: average

Experience: atrocious

thanks

your SF is trainee is better than mine :(

but anywho...

After 2 seasons of training PG's with your SF playing a game in the PG spot your PG's will be pretty good, asuming their the right height/age/potential/trainer level.

However, training a SF, from my simple understanding, will need to be very well rounded, and having your SF learn guard skills for 2 seasons, then have his training slow down, then get bigman training may not be the best idea. This will eventually make him unrounded.

You can still go ahead and train him for a few seasons, he will end up pretty good, but not totally well rounded.


Anyone who has a better knowledge of this matter please correct me of my knowledge.

He could become rounded you just have to train his big man skills for longer then his guard skills because training has slowed.

Awesome prospect; I think you are going the right way first with outside training... I am training a 6'6 guy and 6'7 guy in OD and although it does take longer it really is worth it. If you can get your guy up to Prolific in his first 2 seasons then whatever you decide to do from that moment on is just going to make him more and more valuable. IF you only plan to get him to strong then bear in mind he won't likely be able to hold down the PG slot at higher leagues and it will make him look very ordinary on the TL if you decide to sell.

The question you have to answer is are you ready to commit to OD. If you do then this guy could have a very long career with you.

Good luck!
