Good analyse Yoda. I can see the enthusiasm is high up there which is a good thing. Expecting some big seasons of the U21 specially when we have so many dedicated and also skilled managers to lead the team. After much success whitebread and the Senior team had we're all starving for a golden trophy.

Claus had the same player to play against. ;)
But they are the 2 stars of the team.

Looks like the Kiwis got totally out gunned.

Good work team aussie.

Royce Radcliffe and Brendon Okon SG was bad for us with them taking 12 shots and making just 3, however they did make up for that a bit by combining for 14 assists which is great for the SG spot.

I think this might be the case for most of the season - im not sure how good our 'pure' SG's are. Royce is definately a PG, okon is as well and same with Lawrie who didnt get a gig cause of game shape (I assume?!?! hehe), but I know leeroy was playing Lawrie at SG for most of last season.

Mingkun at SG is our best bet, in regular league games he shoots ok FG%, but his 3PT% so far this season is crapola and last season wasnt too crash hot either. So that may be a bit of a concern there.

I think we will be seeing PGs playing at SG a lot this season - mainly beacuse of their defensive capabilities.

Thanks

Iwen will say ignore the second two and just concentrate on the first guy. Certainly Zhao Xiudong should be your focus, start by giving him some single position inside defence training, try to get it up to about prominent (10). You can be giving Arthur Lazenby the exact same training. Ensure you have at least a level four trainer and a level five is better but can be financially crippling so think carefully about it. Sadly Normie Torney really doesn't fit with the other two so you will have to make a hard choice about what to do with him.

Agreed with what Yoda said. Sell Torney and get a cheap 3rd trainee. Xiudong and Lazenby can be trained so focus on some I side defense first till it is around proficient/prominent then get rebounding and inside shot up to the same level.

Best mail me for more advice.
