So no longer the 48-76 minute deal...

That's odd, though, cause I've had players play a hell of a lot of minutes and turn out fine the next week. I guess that's the random factor.

I said consistently...play them a lot of minutes every week and see what your odds are of getting them to proficient :)

My guy (21226157) (9 stamina) this season alone:
7, 61>7, 52>7, 71>7, 72>8, 84>7, 70>8, 49>8, 72>8, 70>8, 65>9

I think he's the starter with fewer weeks at proficient I've ever purchased.

They've been on 8 and 9 most of the season. They're a bit shabby at the moment because I didn't realise that I would have two cup games in one week, so I had to play a lot of them extra minutes.

Yeah one week can be absorbed, it's several weeks in a row that are a problem.

Then again I'm using a doctor with massage specialty, so it's possible that it affects (reduces) the tolerance to high minutes on high stamina players. Maybe someone without a massage specialty doctor can give his perspective.

Well I've played several players at over 70/week and they've still stayed solid. I must be lucky..

Yeah well, let's call it that. If you play your 126k SG on strong GS 99 minutes, you don't train GS and (as it happened) his GS improves, then you must be very lucky indeed...

When stuff like that happens or when people hold GS with 80+ or 90+ on multiple players, I always assume that they have trained GS.

This is my other 9 stamina guy:
7, 32>7, 73>8, 67>7, 71>8, 65>8, 76>8, 74>8, 60>8, 76>8
This guy was at proficient in 6 of the final 8 weeks last season with minutes ranging between 55 and 70...and he is the main reason for my claim that lower seems to work better


For the OP. Just assume that the old rule of thumb for GS still apply, but that high stamina players can tolerate higher minutes more effectively. This change apparently was made because without blanks, the minutes for 8-9 stamina players are extremely difficult to manage.

Yeah, when I put him over I did train GS. Otherwise, no.

I think the 76 minutes is still ok. Unless you can show me evidence otherwise, then it still seems ok to give them that many and still be able to get up to 9.

I think we should both do what we like better and what seems reasonable according to our experience, mate! I got 2 players like that and I will stick to what I've seen to be working/ not working for them :)

Agreed. And those who read should make up their own mind based on what evidence they can glean.

I cant believe how dumb BB players have to be training the three skills that score points and the other skill that does the best job stopping the offense that people use the most.
