PS: There is one more piece to this puzzle. Jone Bogan is probably the best trained player I have ever seen. After 3 1/2 seasons of single position training he is by far the best player in the Aussie U21 team and will be a regular fixture in the senior team for seasons to come. So after that huge investment and all those seasons of work how much did his owner sell him for?


I've seen him on the marker few days ago. His owner was trying to sell him for 10 millions, but nobody bought him.

And he hasn't received only single position training. Jump shot and 1 on 1 are two position training.

The original drafting player sold him for 4 million and got a free trip to the ABBL.

Transfer 3/26/2010 12 Purchased from adams guns for $ 4 161 600


The Chinese guy who bought him spent seasons giving him the best training I have ever seen. One position where possible with, I believe a level 7 trainer. After all that work his reward was.

Transfer 2/27/2011 15 Purchased from 羞死屯火箭队 for $ 5 101 100


Now the guy who is constantly trying to sell him for $10,000,000 has been playing since july 2009, has a roster of 27 and this is the second player he has ever bought. Bizarre.

Somewhere I read Chinese BB community is known for a lot of farm teams who have 7-level trainer, draft or buy best prospects and give him nothing but best training possible...that's why they are among top teams with U-21.

It's also funny how China U-21 roster looks...14 players, of those 7 centers and 7 shooting guards Does China's U-21 coach know something we don't?

I know a player who tanked an entire season last season and got the top draft pick. He spent $20,000-$40,000 every week on scouting and got the best player in the draft.

Graeme Smith (18085248)
Small Forward
Owner: amos rogues
Weekly salary: $ 4 665
Age: 18
Height: 6'2" / 188 cm
Potential: star
Game Shape: respectable



He should have scouted better. If you invest 20k-40k and get to pick #1, you should not go for a player of which you don't know the potential. Or if he did know the potential, he shouldn't have listed a 3-ball potential as his #1 pick. Or are you saying there were no 4-5 ball potentials at all?

i've checked the draft pool, and there was better players, but he just got really unlucky.

(18085251) this one has the best potential from all 18yo in draft pool. however its possible he only had 4 ball skill rating, so it wasn't his nr1 pick.
(18085250) 3 ball potential rating and star potential is 3 ball too.
(18085274) same as above.

k, that's not too much to choose from. I'd place the first above him due to his 4 ball potential, but the others all have 3 ball potentil just like the player he got.....so can understand he din't place them on top.

Yes it was a really horrid draft pool so what can he do? In fact overall in Australia it was a disgusting season for quality for draftees, I know our U21 coach has been crying. Almost every decent player is either all-star or less potential, or owned by players in the low divisions who may not have the resources and experience to train them properly. There are a few great exceptions but not enough.
