How would you order these players?

5 Ball / 2 Ball A / SG / 6'4 / 190
5 Ball / 3 Ball A+ / SF / 6'3 / 190
5 Ball / 4 Ball A / PF / 6'6 / 198
4 Ball / 4 Ball B+ / PG / 6'0 / 183
3 Ball / 5 Ball B / PG /6'0 / 183


Im just confused on which ones to put in front of the other.


And yes, lets assume they are all 18.

Like everything in BB, it depends on the situation your team is in. It also depends on what position you want.
Since you only have 4 players on your team and are being relegated to Div V. I would order them like this:

5 Ball / 3 Ball A+ / SF / 6'3 / 190 (close call between him and the next. I gave him the nod because good SF's are hard to find)
5 Ball / 4 Ball A / PF / 6'6 / 198
4 Ball / 4 Ball B+ / PG / 6'0 / 183 (still good with good potential)
3 Ball / 5 Ball B / PG /6'0 / 183 (the best potential, but at the level you are at you would not even get close to training him
to that level, so the only good it is for is for retail value)
5 Ball / 2 Ball A / SG / 6'4 / 190 (people don't like to see 6th man or starter, if you decide to sell this guy)

Really, you have first pick so I would choose either one of the top two players.

You are right Tutori, it is close. I just dont know who in my league may be reading this as it is a pretty active league. So I made a change here or there to a player or 2...

Now I am confused. I currently have 3 trainees I have been single position training for a while and they are all 3 PG/SG/SF type players who are really close to having the same attributes with an inside/outside type game.

So if I want to try to add 3 more fresh 18 yo's to train with my 3 19 yo's next season which one should I put 1st? The 5/3 A+ or the 5/4/A ? Im just scared the 5/4/A will have strong Inside attributes and will lack the guard skills that I will want in my 3 new trainees..

And with the #1 pick I really do not want to make a decision I will regret as I dumped the whole season down the drain this year to get the #1 pick but it did not help I started in D4 with this team new and did not stand a chance at competing anyway. But the positive is that I was able to save $ and build up my arena to a respectable level for when I will start winning in the future..

Remember he will be in division V with a fresh team. Who knows when he will move up to Div III, and be making enough money to enough support a guy who is achieving that much potential. Not to mention he is probably not going to have a top notch trainer to start out with either (a level 4 or 5 most likely).

3 Ball / 5 Ball B / PG /6'0 / 183
5 Ball / 4 Ball A / PF / 6'6 / 198
4 Ball / 4 Ball B+ / PG / 6'0 / 183
5 Ball / 3 Ball A+ / SF / 6'3 / 190
5 Ball / 2 Ball A / SG / 6'4 / 190

I'd take the 3/5 B 6'0" PG without question but the 5/4 A 6'6" PF could end up being more valuable if he has no glaring weaknesses and can be built as a dominant well-rounded SF or PF.

Thanks guys. Im not looking to sell my #1 unless he just really is not what I was looking for. I am going to take the 5 Ball/ 4 Ball A and hope that his OD is at least a 5. The 3 Guards I am training now all have 10/10/11 OD so I still have some OD work left with them.

If I were just selling I would take the 3/5 guys but I want to keep him and if the 5/4 ends up being bust I will just sell him early for as much as I can get from someone looking for that type of player.
