A few weeks ago, I picked up a lvl 5 trainer. I am currently rotating 5 players for PG/SG training. One guy is a star, his DMI is 118600, and it is becoming a bitch to pop anybody, never mind just him. I thought the higher the trainer, the better the popping?

Do you think it is possible to train a 22 year old (23 next season) guard with potential 8 & around 80k salary? Or will the training be too slow? Regards

No problems at all in training that player.

I've read in the forums here that it's not a good idea to train one skill repeatedly as it'll slow down training speed for that particular skill, for either/both of these reasons:
1) players will get 'bored' training the same skill
2) the higher a skill is in relation to its related skills (e.g. high RB against lower ID and SB) the slower it will train

Is that true? Because I've seen that some people in this thread had trained one skill repeatedly. In my case, I trained my big men in rebounding for virtually one whole season and had pops every other week which is according to the first post. Now they have 11-12 RB with 6-7 ID and SB. Of course, I don't know whether increases in sub-levels have gradually slowed down or not.

But even if that were so, wouldn't it all even out in the end, since higher RB would in turn increase the training speed of ID or SB?

This seems like a circular argument. The "speed-up" is probably relative, anyhow.

I have made a short and rudimentary example for you, according to the first post of this thread.

Training schedule A: 14 weeks of C/PF Rebounding training. 9.4 pops in RB, 1.4 pops in IS and ID. Assuming 18 year old with beginning levels of respectable in the four main big man skills, after 14 weeks he would look like this:
IS strong+
ID strong+
RB prodigious
SB respectable

Training schedule B: seven week rotation C training in IS, ID, SB and C/PF training in RB as follows:
IS, ID, RB, IS, ID, RB, SB. After 14 weeks, same trainee would look like this:
IS prominent ++
ID prominent ++
RB prominent
SB strong ++
JS skill ++
DR skill++

+ means sublevels less than 50%
++ means sublevels more than 50%

I will let you decide which player would help your team more.

I see now thanks. I did notice that one of my PFs with a lower ID averaged less rebounds than the other big men with higher ID even though RB is similar. I'll be doing PF/C for training schedule B, but I imagine that B would still be the better option.

What would be an acceptable difference between the lowest and highest skills?

That is a good question. I don't know the answer. Most of my players are within two levels in their main skills. My starting center has a bit wider margin.

If you trainee is 18 and you want him to be a great player for your team, you should figure a training schedule that is four seasons long and stick to it. Aside from the main skills, you should give your center some one on one for forwards, some passing, and for sure free throws. Big men shoot more free throws in general (especially if you play inside tactics) and they can be the difference. My advice would be to mix those other trainings in occasionally, in place of SB.

The passing info in this post is cut off a bit.

Anyone care to share their experiences with passing training?
