A very easy solution to the debt problem is to sell the player he just bought for a clear overprice. If he gets $250000 for the player he has not much debt left. Add two more players and there can't be much of a problem left with so low salaries in the team.

whatever you say about potential, the fact is if two player have the same qualities, the higher potential will be sold for more even at age 30. you can call it meaningless but this is the fact. as wage goes up, this patern tends to diminish. i also believe there is no difference between an 18 year old 6th man and 22 year old mvp as neither of them is good choices for long term training.

I think you need to explain this one a bit. Why would I pay more for higher potential at age 30? If anyone is training a guy at that age, they need some sense knocked into their heads.

At lower payments I agree that there is a big difference and that people pay too much for potential. But it is mainly newbies that makes this mistake and they have not got enough money to spend $500000 on an old player just because of potential. Even if this user obviously overspent on a high potential player I very much doubt that it is that common that someone will pay as much as $500000 for a useless MVP potential as his player actually is with that age and salary.

And I agree that people overpay for potential. That is the biggest mistake new users does as they tend to believe that potential trains players faster already from start.
