AAnd you think a new player who is in the fifth league will train a player to be in the NT?
How should he pay him? he could only keep him until he is 21/22 years.
And even if he could, it isnt the best for his team. Its much more worse it to train guys with lower potential if you are in the lower leagues.
You dont need an expensive lvl 6/7 coach and your trainees will be cheaper.

What's wrong with being a farm team? If he trains him he wouldn't be in Div.5 forever. Also, with 21 and 22 his salary is perfectly payable because he started very weak. If he has let's say 2 allstar trainees and one with higher potential but weeker... those 2 trainees can take him up the divisons and keep that player to be trained until he is good enough.

Nothing is wrong with being a farm team, it just should make sense...
But the 3000 salary atg guy will take nearly a whole season to be as strong as a 4500 salary all star guy and you have to pay nearly equaly high amounts of money for them.
The allstar player will cap at around 60000 salary where he will be if single position trained with a good trainer at the age of 23
that means, the atg guy will be as strong as the allstar when he is 24!!
He will never make it to a nt (except in barain or smth like this)
So you need to spend an extra season of training for an equally strong player...
You can benefit much more if you train another guy and sell him when he capped!
You will have one more season to train a better trainee and one season of training is worth around 300000!!
So what sense will it make to the atg? Just because he has high potential?
I am sure you would never train a 3000 salary guy...so why do you give the tip to do this?

Well, i don't know how to copy and paste players from my roster, if someone could tell me i'd appreciate it. But yeah, you have noticed that my team is very young. I purposely made them young, i needed better trainees. I'm building my team for the future, and i want to see what i could do with these players

As far as trainers well, i'm eventually going to have a better one than my level 4 trainer. I recently bought most of the 18 and 19 year old players that you see on my roster for the purpose of training. Its going to be fun watching these players develop. Right now, now that i'm finished buying players for a while, i'm going back to building my arena a lot more, i have two home games this week and its going to be interesting for me to see how much i make from ticked prices.

Just mark the player you want to post, press ctrl+c and post them with ctrl+v

If you dont want to train a player for a nt 4 is more than enough!! you are in division V the salary is way too high and it wont be worth it before you dont exactly know what to do.
Are you planning to train all young players in your rooster?

Well... I'm a NT Scout so I know what i'm talking about and a 18 year old ATG if trained properly will SURELY reach the NT of big countries.. My allstar player if i continued to train him will be capped in the middle of the age of 21, so If you only cap an allstar trainee when he is 23 then you are a terrible trainer. There are many ways to success, I just thought that was funny that you said that a below 4k player is basically worthless, without even considering the potential.

Thanks, actually i do want to train a player for a nt. I remember my opponent for the conference championship last season had at least 1 player make the nt, i think he had two, if i can remember properly. I'm planning on training players until they reach 23 years of age. but the main ones i'll be training this season are the 18 and 19 year olds. In particular my centers, because i need some low post scorers and defenders at the center position. I may train a few of my 21 year olds this season as well, especially the ones above allstar potential.

Oh yeah, one more thing, what do you mean by "mark the player", what do you use to mark them?

According to this:
0 Announcer: < 5k
1 Bench warmer: < 5k
2 Role player: < 9,5k
3 6th man: 11,5-13,5k,
4 Starter: 21-24k,
5 Star: 33-40k
6 AllStar: 43-65k
7 Perennial allstar: 80-100k
8 Superstar: 125-145k
9 MVP: 195-230k
10 Hall of famer: 500k+
11 All time great: 1M+

an allstar will cap at 43-65k and you are telling me, that a guard with 4500 starting salary will reach this mark in the middle of 21? He cant afford a high level trainer... It isnt possible for him to train him this fast
I have 2 U21 prospects myself so I think i know what Im talking about, too.
And you obviously dont want to understand what Im talking about.
He is a new manager in div V he cant afford a high level trainer! He doesnt know enough to train such a guy to this level!

And it is more beneficial for you team if you take a lower potential guy with higher salary than the other way round.
Cause you will make more money out of it, and you will be able to buy a really good trainee. One with very good potential (8 or higher) AND good salary.

And I never said it isnt worth training anything below 4000!!!
I just said it is better to get a higher salary guy with less potential cause it will help you more.
And it was 3500 this is a huge difference!

I just tried to help him and wrote a few sentences well maybe next time i should do something like this?

Only train guys like this!
6th man 5k salary
Starter 4752
Star 4430
AllStar: 4227
Perennial allstar 4000
Superstar3598
Hall of famer 3320
All time great: anything is fine

Is this better?

And again im asking YOU if YOU would really train a guy with 3000 salary? I dont think so


@brain buster
With mark i mean what you do with every text in every programm with the mouse if you want to copy something

Yes, I would train a guy with 3k if he had enough potential for the AA team, actually I'm starting to train a HOF with 4.4k guard that only has this salary because of the rebounding.

I think you should NEVER train a player with salary less than 3500!!

So, even if he reaches the II in some year, he shouldn't train a big potential player with less than 3500, with the objective to take him to the National Team?

With a level 4 trainer you could cap an allstar player with good starting skills in 3 seasons.

I wasn't talking about him, of course that in this moment he doesn't have much money, but it's a bit weird to say that you shouldn't ever train a guy with less than 3.5k despite having good potential.

Starting salary.....


$2500.

Was he single position trained? Did he ever pop double? I have a 5'9 trainee and sometimes he pops in consecutive weeks on 2 position training.

@thread author
I understand attachment to lesser guys you drafted, but if you happened to buy junk, why keep it?
If you just want to see a popcorn feast, buy some 7'5 guys and train what you were going to.

I guess everyone wastes a season figuring BB out..
