IMO it's the maximum for a SG, but too tall for a PG.

why would you say so? I mean based on what do you make the difference between PG and SG here?


@Egg-Man, do you want to train that player?

We have both said a lot of things that you are going to regret.

Problem might be in Outside Defense training. Though in real life you've got players like Tayshaun Prince who at 6-9 was (is?) an impressive outside stopper...

I have seen 6'7-6'10 SF on TL who has 15 OD at 22-23 years old, dont see why 6'6 is too tall.

Nope.

6'10 and 6'11 is too tall....maybe.


Depends on strategy.

IF he wants to train him, 6'6 is quite tall for a guard, that's true (though I got 11 ups from outside training last season on two guys (20 & 21 years) who are that tall, and one week was stamina training).

But if he just wants him to play, the player might just as well be 7'5 or 5'8, it doesn't make a difference.

Yes, I am planning on training him.

Also, if I train 1-on-1 for forwards instead of guards, will that make the taller player pop quicker?
