Your use of hyperboles on this topic was funny Kudos to you. We are not talking about some absurd case of making training incredibly fast or raising money in any way. We are talking about free throws. It would be a much better correlation to have free throws pop once for every 3-4 JS pops. Then players would look more like this: 16 JS 5 FT rather than 16 JS 1 FT. This is not a drastic change but it makes the scenarios more realistic. I respect you as a manager and respect your opinions (as i have agreed with you many times in the past), however I disagree with you on this topic. We can agree to disagree I think though. ;)

First off chilllllllll. Every skill has secondary skills it trains. In reality if you are a BAMF at JS then more than likely you dont suck at free throws. So why do players with a high skill set of JS and IS can literally blow at FT. This game should and is pretty realistic.

Huh, good thinking. I think this would making training a player, which already takes a long time even longer. But that does make sense. .

Here here. More realistic, good shooters hit free throws.

I would do it for JS training only and only like 0.05 pops per week at 18. Small increase that would mean a guy training 10 levels of JS would end up with average FT or something.

It is funny that you seem to be trying to cast a negative image by saying that I'm trying to argue with someone, when arguing with me is all your post does. ;)

I'm not arguing with you. :) It's just that your tone sounded a bit aggressive (anti-whining tone hehehe) ;)

Training in the game is completely artificial, so the notion of "common sense" or "in the real world" aren't that valid of arguments.

I agreee. That's why we should strive to make those changes so that BB reflects real life basketball as much as it can. Yes? ;)

Training choices are one of the many strategic/tactical decisions a manager has to make. Many people already don't train free throws, claiming that it just isn't worth it.

I'm not talking about training FT choices. That's completely different matter. I just like the original idea. BTW I value FTs and train them when I can (and stamina) and my players have high levels of stamina and FT. So I don't complain, it's just that I like the original idea.

Peace ;)

In reality there isnt is player at any level that has a nice JS but sucks at FT. Why cant JS partially train FT? What about a change? Any suggestions?



absolutely no change needed. With cross training you are sure to get a rookie with atrocious FT to at least to a decent sub-level(worst case scenario). This is not reality, this is a basketball manager. Yes, they do struggle to make it realistic. But still, why not just use the season break and all star break to actually train free throws. if a guy has 3 or 4 in FT he is actually not a bad free throw shooter(according to the GE), so I really don't see why this needs changing

I just looked at my league and NBA stats. Here is what I found.

Best Team in my league FT%: 0.842
Best Team in NBA this season so far: 0.826

Worst Team in my league: 0.669
Worst Team in NBA: 0.669

12 of 16 Teams are in a range 0.700 - 0.800 in my League
25 of 30 Teams are in the same range in NBA.

Free-Throws are fine in this game. And so realistic as you see.


Btw, one thing to think about...

Best Team in our league in 3Pts%: 0.258
Worst Team in NBA: 0.301

Ok, it might be, we just dont have right players in our league. But still. Then average is below 20%, something is really wrong with it.

This game hates three pointers and if you actually build a team designed to be outside based then unlike the 2/3 zone which does nothing, the 3/2 zone really hurts your three point percentage even more.
