I have been training PF/Cs for the last season and I will go on training them for a while. I just sold one of my 5 trainees and I have now 4 big guys. However, I wanted to ask if I should focus on a different training strategy.
I also have 2 19 year old guys but they are like PGs so I don't know if I can try to use them. (like playing them as centers and train them some inside stuff or playing them as PG and train PGs for a few weeks) I am just kind of stuck. I am planning on buying a starter PG bc I need one and I have around 1.4M. I just don't know if I will have any decent money left after I bought a guy for PG. Thanks for any help. I am not sure if I am clear about my situation but if I am not, I would love to answer any questions that you may need to be answered.

For my money, if you have 4 big guys that you consider to be trainees, you should keep training them. The 4 20yo guys I saw on your team are developing well but unfinished. Training speed doesn't start to noticably slow down until age 21, so you still have another season to train this crop before you'll even notice.

I also have 2 19 year old guys but they are like PGs so I don't know if I can try to use them. (like playing them as centers and train them some inside stuff or playing them as PG and train PGs for a few weeks) I am just kind of stuck.


I wouldn't recommend trying to shove a 19yo PG into a PF/C training spot unless he had some pretty well-established inside skills (at least mediocre) before you started training him. I'd also say that if you have a 19yo in a non-training position, he's worth more on the TL than he is on your team, as a similarly-skilled 26yo would be cheaper.

I am planning on buying a starter PG bc I need one and I have around 1.4M. I just don't know if I will have any decent money left after I bought a guy for PG. Thanks for any help.

Use your $1.4M wisely and good luck this season!

thanks :)

Actually I accidentally bought 1 of the 19 year old guys. I clicked on bid accidentally and nobody outbid me lol. Maybe I should focus on selling him and that other guy back?

and yea I will keep my 4 big buys but I was wondering if I should buy another big guy or buy a SF and build up some inside skills for that guy.
