I dont know yet,his height is in the middle of pg and sg. Combo also coud be great.

So, my trainee logged 22 minutes mostly off-position and got injured so he's out for the week. I'm going with team training, either Stamina or Free Throws. His stamina is 4, FT is 2, which one do you guys figure I should go for?

If I can get him a full 48 minutes in position next week (which is probably the case), then I'll resume the normal stat training. That's why I'm asking which one I should prioritize if I only go for one.

Well. Since his st is 4 and ft 2, what is an issue for the rest of the team? Would the rest benefit from stamina or ft

I think what the guys are saying here is; it doesn't matter what your trainees states are for Stam and FT, he is not going to get training because he is injured.

If you are going to train Team Training, then you need to look at the rest of the team and see what you could benefit from.

Secondly, if your trainee has a 1 week injury, it is quite likely that he could miss more than 7 exact days, this would mean that he might miss a full weeks training in the second week, hence, the having the plan for 2 weeks of off schedule Team Training, just in case.

If you are asking which training type to do for an injured guy... none.

He got injured on Saturday after having played 22 minutes as I said, so he's getting some training. Anyway, I had read somewhere that team training either doesn't take minutes into account, or they're not as important, isn't that so?

Regardless, the guy got injured on Saturday. It is possible that the 1 week injury causes him to miss 5 games (plus half a game he's already missed), however it is very unlikely. You can't be seriously asking me to assume that he'll miss 2 games this week plus an entire week more and plan with that in mind. Yes, if that happens, then it's team training for two weeks, yes, but that wasn't the question.

The question was which one of the two training options you guys think is more effective or useful for a single week's training. It wasn't even that important, I could have tossed a coin. In fact, I think I'll do just that. Thanks for the input.

You're right - injured players will still get full FT or Stamina training (or GS, but that's not really in consideration here). I always look at it like training stamina is sort of temporary - you'll bump it up a little and then it'll drop back down, so I'd consider that as something you do pretty much when you're done with everything else or have no other real options. Training FT provides a permanent increase (at least until skill drops occur) that actually be worth a few points here and there over the course of a season. If you have a lot of players with low stamina and want to play your starters a lot of minutes, of course, you may want to train stamina; if you have good depth or mostly high stamina, or just hate seeing guys shoot low percentages from the FT line, FT would make more sense.

I already know my training plan for my rooks but would like to hear some criticisms as well.

I usually wouldn't train the 22 year old (only all star potential). But I kept him because he was a draft pick at 18.

The 18 year old needs HA/DR/PA. The 20 year old could use some JS and a little JR, but you might be leaving them like that on purpose.
