The 18 year old was my draft pick this season, the 19 year old was my draft pick last season and the 21 year old I brought early this season, he has been my best player so far. Have been training IS all season and had a few pops. I am also coming 2nd last in Div. 3 Big 8 conference.

Isnt it incredibly difficult to train a 7'5" player in guard skills though?

Yeah because they don't exist (I think :P).

The 21 7'5 players currently on the transfer list would beg to differ.

It's 7'6 players that don't exist.

But yes, I imagine a 7'5 player would be extremely difficult to pop in guard skills.

Started training rebounding.Whats next after rebounding?Some one-on-one training?

I have an attachment to this trainee. He started out with really poor JS, JR, and secondary skills like REB. The secondaries are still terrible but I hope to improve on them down the road. I'm going to train one-on-one for forwards to try to slowly improve on his inside shot and to keep his salary under control. I bought another 6'0" 18 year old but he seems to train slower.

JFYI

Had a similar problem. I had a player who has respectable JR but pitiful JS.

With a superior coach he popped about 4 times in 5 weeks in JS.

He's my current fav : )

I think JS for Forwards would be more useful. Shooting skills are his main weakness at the moment so i think they need the most work.

Well they're more real than the tooth fairy or Yankee Fans at Fenway but I'll admit that his guard skills are non-existent.

I already posted him in the other thread but I thought a second opinion couldn't hurt.

Thoughts?Comments? Im training passing till prolific/sensational and then one on one until driving is prominent/prolific and then JS and JR.
It would also be helpful if someone could maybe go to salary calculator and figure out what his salary would be. I don't know how to use the calculator and so it would be really aprreciated.
