For arguments sake, is it more beneficial to train JS or JR for your team? I'm probaly going to train rebounding (team) for half a year and either jump range or jump shot for the other half. just to see what happens?

What are your thoughts? which one is more beneficial?

In looking at available players I see shooting guards and small forwrads with prominent jump shoot and range, strong driving and respectable handling and they still only shoot 35%. I don't know what good ot does to train them until the higher ranks or try to pick one who can shoot off the transfer list.

You train specific players to specific skills that fits with there position. No reason for example to train 7'3 C OD. Team training u r using only for FT and stamina. If you train 1 skill all the team, the result will be so poor...

you've done this or are you just guessing? I'd have to disagree with you. the limited times i've done team training on rebounding and one-on-one have been greatly beneficial to my entire team.

Well maybe where some decimals on your players, and they poped up, but if u r doing that on consistent base you will see that the results are poor. If i tried it? no! It was the 1st advice that i got from the friend that invited me here

Why wouldnt you train OD on a Center? (this is a serious q.) I appreciate it might not contribute so much to the team ratings but against teams running an outside offence i think this is a very useful skill.

It is useful, but doesn't it take a long time to pop?

Do NOT listen to Johnny. He is absolutely wrong. With a 7'3" C, OD is a great thing to train because it allows you to be able to run a strong outside defense. If you're running FCP or 1-3-1, wouldn't you want your C to be able to play OD strongly? There is not a good reason to NOT train your C in OD.

Just as long as it would take to train him in JS or JR with the rest of the team.

OD takes longer to pop than JS.

Especially when OD is a lot more height dependent than JS.

That's absolutely wrong actually. There's no reason to waste training on a C, especially one that it that large. It will take forever and it's a waste of training. It's not even needed.

As for jump range, it's only useful if you play perimeter and you want a guy who's good from 3 point range.
