After 9-10 Weeks of OD then what? He is then at the starting point of a decent trainee after wasting 70% of the season. If he is able to get any value from him its a much better call than pushing him to get to a starting point.

Yeah going to trash him. I realized this guy though lower potential is a much better trainee:


Age: 19
Height: 6'10" / 208 cm
Potential: role player
Jump Shot: pitiful
Jump Range: awful
Outside Def.: mediocre
Handling: awful
Driving: pitiful
Passing: atrocious
Inside Shot: respectable
Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: respectable
Shot Blocking: inept
Stamina: awful
Free Throw: average

So I'm shifting my training to my big men, I have others that would train well with him.

With the surrounding skills. With it not being the beginning of the season by the time he gets 3-4 pops, and the current transfer market. I'd imagine he'd get the same / less in 5-6 weeks time.

He is a longer term prospect, but has more upside. CP shows a rapid salary increase for him.

Longer term as what? Salary increases doesnt mean a better player just that they will cost more. The reason he shows such a fast salary increase is if he is trained as a guard the rebounding he already has will be expensive. Not that thats a bad thing just personal preference. I would never pick up a guard prospect w/ anything lower than mediocre OD and thats an extreme stretch he has to be a god other than that weakness.

Thanks, still a complete noob here and am just trying to find a way to earn some cash to develop a better team. Long term I don't see either one of those players playing for my team, but maybe they can generate some income.

The flip side to this is if he has 2 other trainees that would also benefit and ramp up in value with 9 weeks of OD training. He is then faced with still a reasonable to good trainee albeit 19yo. But how many times would you draft better than this guy if he did have respectable OD at age 19??

I view any Draftees that are 19 as Free Money that I can get on the market. Losing that first year is so crucial to training and I wont bother training a 19y/o no matter how "nice" they are.

In this managers case even if he had 2 other trainees I felt the best move would be to cash out and utilize that cash elsewhere.
