Say, training the whole team in rebounding or jump shot. What are your thoughts?

I've always found it to be beneficial to my team, achieving a solid number of pops to different players throughout the season, but I don't know if I have ever seen someone else endorse it.

I, having never tried it, believe that doing 1 position or 2 position training is much more efficent. You get to control what players get the most training more easily. Not to mention you get trained MUCH faster, which will help you get better, or make money easier through training and selling.


Team training would be a very good idea if you had 300 players or so. =]

The only way I see it being beneficial, is if all your players are either under 21, or all are over 21.

Theoretically you'd be able to fully train 15 players. Not 300, unless you did stamina or free throws.

The main drawback would be that all your players would be well-rounded and have similar skill levels.
I don't know if anyone's ever tried Team Training the whole season. It'd be interesting though

Oh, duh. I forgot that team training rebounding is different from team training free throws and stamina.So trying to create an empire of bad gameshape and possibly constant pops won't work.. =[

Yeah, I'd suppose the team training would be pretty slow too.

In my first seasons here, I trained my whole team a lot. I even wasted a 18yr, 7´2", hall of famer prospect. Now I have a really good bench. Match this with 2, maybe 3 stars and you got yourself a really good team


*sorry for my english

Yeah, this is what I've found with training the whole team. For example, I've been going with Team Jump Shot for the past few weeks, and have seen even my big men pop in that skill (some more than once), which is exactly what I'm after. Overall, my team is more solid, including the bench. I've just seen no love for the "whole team" approach and wished to get other thoughts on it. To me, if training the entire team wasn't valuable in its own way, it wouldn't be one of the options to select from.

Can you give us some numbers? How many weeks have you trained and how many pops have you had? Because the training speed thread estimates really discourage team training...

I think you're being very optimistic. Even if you start with 15 18 year-olds and assuming they can get 48 mins every week I would be surprised if they sold for 1 million after 2 seasons of team training. And they would only be bought as backups. Only newbies would splash cash on this kind of players, because the most productive years of training would've already been wasted. And training should be really slow. That 7'0 center would take half the season to pop in passing :P
