3x Sensational don't receive 50k...

I don't have any, but i have one guy that is 2xSensacional 1xProfilic and he only receives 27k


Fair enough.....then the jump from there must be pretty steep as 2x Sensational 1x Tremendous is $57k (although he has sublevels in both Sensationals...)

Perhaps it's all the passing training you gave him or shot blocking? I have a triple sensational plus for less than $50K, and with decent guard skills too.

So, I do think well-rounded players (can play inside or outside) are more cost-effective.

I agree. This salaries are ridiculous and there is no team in the world, not even a main league one that can maintain players with 70k a week. From what I know, from each championship match an average main league team gets 300k. That's almost one third of the income. How can that be? Feels like they are the team itself.
My BP went from a 5k weekly salary to almost 10k! I feel a bit outraged, despite knowing that it is nothing comparing to 70k's. But I'm a IV team.
I think in the future this will create a step back on training players, most teams just will leave them to rot before they salaries get too high. Besides, if only main league teams can afford players like these, low league team won't be able to advance. At least, that's the way I feel, but I already spoke my mind on this issue on previous occasions.

Or just train more efficiently. It has already been said that multi-skilled players will have lower salaries. So go that route. If a player starts to be unaffordable, sell him and improve your team in other areas.

By the way - I don't think one 70k player would bankrupt a division I team. Having 5 starters with that salary is another story. I personally would go for more balance than one star but other teams feel differently.

Last thing - 10k for a player is peanuts given that you get TV game revenue 3 times a season and playoff revenue. I know finances are tough at the beginning but eventually things will change for you.

I don't base my entire finance on the winnings of a TV game. A solid grow can't be made on the exception. I base my team's finance on the winnings of the average game. That said, I only go on the green 10k per week. The exception should only matter as damage control, in case of any deal goes wrong or, if comfortable, to re-enforce the team. And if I didn't thought that way, last season would've been my first and last. Really spared me a great pain in the ass.

The only reason that 'multiskilled' players are having lower salaries is because their skills are lower. Since centers are mostly trained in 3 or 4 skills, those skills will be higher because you will train less skills.
Salary increases way more at higher skills than at lower skills.
Guards are trained in more skills, which makes their skill level lower, that's why the salary is lower atm.
