I'm actually training guards, however, 1.96 isn't the best height for that purpose.

So I would always choose the one with a better market value, who I though was the C as you also agree.
And then I could also buy another set of guards to train if i desire.

Thank you and the rest for the answers

agreed :)

196 isn't an ideal height for guards... unless you want to try a hand at SF's.

You could train the taller player as a guard for awhile, then when you put him on the market he'll be very attractive to those that are training bigs as he'd train quite nicely into a SF at that point.

Shoot, that is tall.

With solid guard skills, he'll be a very attractive big man to either train or sell for exactly that reason. If he's superstar level or greater, you'll likely be able to sell him for a ton.

Only C is worth to take and as I see on the forums, you are training guards... If you would train guard skills for two more seasons and then switch to inside skills, this would be a perfect player for you to turn into an inside SF.

I don't recommend the two guards...three seasons ago I drafted 2 guards with allstar potential and they will reach their cap in 5-6 weeks. I should add they have been 2-position trained for first two seasons, so if they'd be trained on 1-position, they would reach the cap even earlier. Now they are good for third league I'm in, but I'm advancing to 2nd league this season and they can be only bench players there. So I invested three seasons and a half of training into bench players.

Plus, it's possible that you would be getting a "Star" potential with three balls which is even worse.

If you are training guards, draft the C, sell him and buy yourself a new guard trainee.

What on Earth are you talking about? No allstar potential players will cap in 5-6 weeks...especially not guards.

Not even a 6th man will cap that fast.

You can train that 6'5 SG to at least 50k at least. If he turns out to be an allstar you can go to around 60-80....and quite frankly, is you are training a lot of mostly OD he won't be that expensive. The only way he'll be very expensive is if you power train Jump Range.

Pretty sure he means he has been training them for 3 seasons already and they will cap 5-6 weeks from now.

no he is talking about 2 guards he drafted 3 years ago that he thinks will cap in 5 - 6 weeks but looking at his roster there is no way those 2 guards will cap that soon. I have 3 all star guards that I have been training that should hit 35 to 42k when salaries update so there is no way in hell his 2 guys cap soon. And I believe they will be capped or close to it very soon if they arent already.

Well, Zorin will cap pretty soon. I know he has 13k salary right now, but don't let that fool you... his abilities are:

Weekly salary: $ 13 609
Role: rotation player
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 335300
Age: 21
Height: 6'0" / 183 cm
Potential: allstar
Game Shape: proficient
Jump Shot: tremendous Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: tremendous Handling: tremendous
Driving: wondrous Passing: sensational
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: pitiful Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: strong

Experience: awful


Today he pops to Wondrous OD; if I'd let him pop two more times in PA, he would be capped (especially because PA contributes the most to the cap with Point Guards). Instead, I'm training his JR until Strong and then a little of 1 on 1...and then he WILL cap.

I have 3 all star guards that I have been training that should hit 35 to 42k when salaries update so there is no way in hell his 2 guys cap soon.


Zorin will also hit around 35k with salaries update...and no way allstar can reach 60k like somebody mentioned few posts ago. A Center may reach that number yes, but not a guard. Unless you train him past his cap.
