I guess it depends on what skills he has, i just didn't think you could get many skills for 10k salary.

Without question JS is the most lucrative skill to train if you are trying to make money on the TL. People will overpay for OD, but usually the player must be decent all around to sell. There are 50000 users playing this game, and at least 30000 of them think, "Wow, high jump shot, this guy is great!"

One of the great misconceptions of the game, and a point to take advantage of if you are into working the TL.

The other misconception for me is the potential lust that people have. Unless you are going to single train a player, anything over Allstar is a waste of money. That is off topic, I know, but I wanted to say it anyway.

I have to agree on the potential but i see a little problem with this.If you would like to train a C/PF the potential is important seeing that an Allstar will probably get his final pops around 60-70k salary and for a big man that is not high considering i'm playing in div.I.Also training guards even if using 2 position training with a normal 4k 18yo perennial/superstar by the time you get him to 21-22 yo he could be around 80-90k if you play his minutes right witch means that an Allstar will probably won't do.
What i like to point out is that potential shouldn't be so important to everyone especially to teams in lower division.I know everyone would like to train the next Kobe/Lebron/Wade but doesn't seem to be the right way seeing that when his training is over the team will probably not afford him on his roster.

To be on topic a little, the player his talking about could be a real gem because very balanced player(especially SFs) tend to have their salary explode when they reach 22-23 yo because a proficient/prominent player could have a 15-20k salary and then when he reaches sensational/tremendous could have 50-60k salary.
For an exemple i have a SF that a total of 95 skill points and has a salary of 27k and by the end of the season he will hopefully be at 100 skill points at a salary of 40k(salary calculator).For him to be this way i trained him to have almost the same stats for inside and outside.I've seen SF that have 80-90 skill points that get 60-70k salary.I actually don't take the players salary into account that much because of the calculating model that is used witch can make you believe the player is stronger that he actually looks.

Did you list him and then buy him back for $1.3M last season? How much did that cost you?

Sounds like a nice player. Mind posting his current skills? Just curious. . .

He'd be quite similar to my own 22 year old Superstar potential PF.

Jump Shot: proficient Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: prolific Handling: prominent
Driving: average ↑ Passing: average
Inside Shot: sensational Inside Def.: wondrous
Rebounding: prominent Shot Blocking: mediocre
Stamina: awful Free Throw: average

Though due to his potential, he probably only has about 15 pops left in him. about 9 of which will go into big man skills like rebounding, IS and another ID pop, then the rest go into JS and passing.

Nice player you have there. Although, seeing as his player is only just turned 20 I think his skills would still be a long way behind that. If he doesn't mind posting the skills here it would be awesome to see.

Out of curiousity, in what order would you rank the usefulness of the individual guard skills for a power forward and center.
For example, is the most useful handling, followed by driving followed by some other guard skill etc etc.
What order would you have it in?
