i dont train sg etc so i sell this guy fast cause this is a very good trainee!!

Not that great to be honest. Atrocious OD is a very bad starting point for a guard and he doesn't have the height or IS to train as a big.

First guy is ok but i hate that OD. You can train that but will take a while maybe even the whole season to get to a good level. But after that his other skills are behind. Up side great potential and quite balanced guard skills, a team could get sucked in by that overpaying for him.

Second guy, my favourite out of all of them. Great skills, don't worry about passing at the moment cause it trains really quick. I had a 19yo with atrocious passing and 4 weeks of training passing it pops to mediocre. Thats a pop every time i trained it. It was because the other skills where all average and over and probably a high sublevel. Train OD and JR. Switch between the two until OD gets to proficent or JR gets to proficent. If you get a pop first time training OD then stop training till OD gets to prominent (rorating between JR and OD). Play him as a SG when training JR so it is one position. After that it would have taken about 8 or 9 weeks getting 48mins one position every week. Train JS till that pops once. Train one on one for the rest of the season. Remember ASW and every 2 game weeks train stamina or FT. HE is gonna be a great player.

Third guy is ok but again i hate that OD. Get that up 1 level then sell him, good potential and that OD pop will make him look more balanced sucking in some teams.

Goodluck with these players

I saw the poor OD on him... part of the reason I bought him was because the other trainee also has bad OD... actually I also wanted to test the height thing.. and see how fast the guard skills improve with shorter players :D

Experience:

The player may have bad JR but the other guard skills are very good, none under average. You can still train him but will always have lower JR.

I think player A only sells for that price because of potential. The guy you were giving advice to has respectable OD and only medicore on your guy, that's about 4 weeks of training just to get to that level. Not to mention the JS and driving (driving trains quick though).

Player B is the type of player you would want but sells for more than what you have said.

Keep in mind the guy can have a defence/passing PG where he doesn't take as much shots but sets them up instead. He will sell for more with more OD and passing

Shooting isn't everything. He can just focus on OD for the whole season and get that up to a very high level and sell for heaps. Also the elastic effect will cause JR to train faster so maybe it might take only 2 weeks to pop up. With OD training and keeping all guard skills balanced for this season next season he can focus on JR which should train quick with the elastic effect.

I had an SF, every skill over mediocre besides passing which was atrocious. When he was 19 i decide to train it. I got 4 pops in a row and went to mediocre in 4 weeks. Maybe sublevel was high i don't know. I then sold him for 3 million.

So i suggest training mainly OD and some passing, one on one and JS for the season then next season train JR and see what happens. You can not waste such a good player, he won't be the best PG, but he will be a decent one that can get him through div5 and maybe even div4.

You are only getting OD up to respectable? I have a player like yours, now 19 and he has all guard skills over mediocre and Od at proficent. Train OD the most this season then focus on passing and handling and driving.
