Hi Steve Makis!
I just wanna tell about my newest acquisition of a 19yo guy from your country. I saw that some of you were already talking about him in NAT U19 thread. Unfortunately, I think that I spend too much for him. My intention of buying him is his potential to be appointed to U19 NT of cyprus. Now I wanna ask you about his chances by trying to convince of him and my trainings plan:
First, right now he has the following stats:
Nikos Zigouris (9730309)
Owner: Florida 96ers
Weekly salary: $ 7 035
DMI: 48500
Age: 19
Height: 6'0" / 183 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: strong
Jump Shot: proficient Jump Range: average
Outside Def.: proficient ↑ Handling: average
Driving: respectable Passing: mediocre
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: inept
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: respectable Free Throw: respectable
Experience: atrocious
Second, why I'm convinced of his potential? So, I'll tell you something about what I'm going to train for the next 3 seasons from now on (season 10-12):
Season 10 to about first half of season 11: Pressing (+ maybe 1 or 2 weeks for condition or freethrows)
Second half of Season 11: Jumpe Range ( I think it's not bad to improve him a bit in these skills)
I'm not so sure about training in Season 12, but i'm switching between the following options.
Season 12: Jump shot and/or Passing(+ maybe 1 or 2 weeks for condition or freethrows)
So, when you calculate everything togehter, in my opinion, he's going to have about the following skilllevels at his 21. birthday (always taking in consideration potential sub in some skills):
Jumpe Shot: prominent - prolific (10-11)
Jumpe Range: strong - proficient (8-9)
Outside defense: tremendous - marvelous (13-15)
Handling: prominent - prolific (10-11)
Driving: proficient - prominent (9-10)
Passing: mediocre
Inside defense: mediocre - average (5-6)
Inside shot, Rebounding, Blocking won't change
condition: respectable - proficient (7-9) -> depends on decline during seasons
Free Throws: mediocre - respectable (5-7) - depends on how many training seasons I'll spend for this
Depending on what I'm going to train in season 12, you can imagine yourself about development.
So, now I'm looking forward to your opinion about his chances of appointment. What do you think?
Greetings, greiel
