Why not allow free-throws to improve as a secondary skill within jumpshot training and vice-versa...? Makes sense to me...!

It is so much fun to train FT once just to see the FT-shooting of a scrub go from 0% to 15%. Try it, you will love it.

No players on both of your teams is shooting less than 15% on FT.


Exactly. Because I put in the work to Train them. It was so much fun. I recommend it.

My suggestion would be to scale the FT skill differently so that it is more on par with Stamina and caps at 10. I find it silly that players have to have 13 FT to be a 79.5% shooter from the line like my player Luke Simmons was last season. 8-10 should be plenty to ensure 80-90%

I think we're dealing with far too small of numbers to really draw conclusions, but my point stands that I don't think it should be necessary to train FT above 10 when Stamina, the only other team training option, maxes out at ten.

Experience could play a part there. If 2 guy have low experience , and he shot free throws for example in tied game when 1 min left , maybe that's why he missed it. And as guy said, number of free throws really small to make conclusion..
