Sorry to ruin your best draft ever but that first guy has got to go.

That is horrible advice. He's a Hall of Famer with multiple respectables. "got to go"? If someone who is not familiar with this game takes you literally, he may just cut a guy in response to your "advice". You could have cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars, or more!

Does that player have some holes and weaknesses? Of course, but most rookies do.

focus on your first guy since he is the better draftee, and sell of the 6'10. I dont understand why would people even suggesting him to train the big man in guard skills. you can pick up an allstar potential guard with weaker skills and still end up a way better guard than him. the first guy, good rebounding always nice for a guard, I would suggest you spend a season doing - JR, JS and driving since they are really low. I would definately suggest one on one first since It gives some good secondaries. and at atrocious it will pop like crazy due to elastic effect. then I would focus on JR since it really slow to train. get all these up to around respectable. and then pound OD since its really important as you get more pound for your money. for offense you have to train JS, JR, Driving and handling just to be a good scorer whereas a single skill - OD will net you more wins as you go up against outside scoring team. not to mention isolation is going to be a tactic now, you dont want your best defender to be at only respectable.

anyways:

heres what you need to do:

1. get 2 other main guard trainees (preferably one to keep, the other to sell for profit at the end of season but you can keep too
2. I would get the trainees who are in similar position = weak in the skills you are going to train, in your case - JS, JR, DR
3. get 3 more really weak in driving or JS guard trainees with some respectable in other guard skills who are around 18 years with at least allstar potential which you will need when your training one on one and Js since they are double position training, once your done with them. sell them for a lot of profit.

thats all

I won't analyze the different methods and rotations for training. I think that everyone has found something that works best for them or there tactics, as there are some very good coaches here. What I would say to you in being the most important part of the training. Be sure you have a good trainer, the best training schedule in the world, will loose out to a poorly trained player who has a much higher level trainer training him.
