I don't want to get off topic with if its works or not and etc. Because it been tested and BB should be telling us if it works or not. We should be not playing the role of Sherlock Holmes .That's a new debate and a lot of writing.

I agree with what your saying. . Like said before a lot managers are scared to train players a differ way for the sake of traditional training of players. What they lack to undesand and other as well( including myself) is certain tactic need the player to look a certain way for it to perform. They cant be traditional based player. How much different we don't know

Like train a.b, c. d and you have a good player. Sometimes for some tactics you will need to train D, E, f G and get something un natural but effective and good long term. This what I see them trying to do, at the same time I don't understand the penalty behind it?

It would best to just go the regular route of training ( 1 postiton) why hassle your self. Will it take longer to do this new training?, is it costly? iIs the real question. I just see people boosting Id/ od.. none of the others are deal breaker as those 2 in winning games.

I second someone's comment praising the BB's for working on improving the game. Good going!

This thread reveals one area of needed improvement. Veteran managers seem to have no clue what is intended by the "new training." Whatever it is, it is communicated poorly indeed. And if it turns out that "80%" refers to "80% of something in the old system," new managers who never were exposed to the old system are doomed.

The new training coding may turn out to be something useful -- I certainly hope that is so -- but the explanation of just what it consists of is going to have to be improved 300%.

Thats why alot leave because they don't understand//

ALL I'm saying BB need to do more or the info side.. Everything is give and take 50/50// even the greatest chess secrets end up being told. It does not devalue the chess game it just open up ,more ways of play.. Now you have12 yrs olds todays that are grandmaster. Chess is played all over the world, many differ style and methods. BB is far from chess. more like yathzee.

I feel it should be more of chess than that.

I'm sorry to say but the BB"s are not here to tell us what to do to get this or that to work.

Nobody suggested anything like that, and with all due respect, your response is defensive and not befitting a BB. The BB's are also not here to produce gibberish that nobody can understand.

If you can do no better than:
" C / PF
SF / PF (80%)
SG / SF (70%)
PG / SG (60%)
C / PF / SF "
completely without any explanation of what that is supposed to mean, then you would do better never to have published that. It merely confuses everyone and frustrates many newbies. You created second teams to get more revenue, and then you drive people away like this. Not smart.

The game is BasketBall, not "Guess What the BB's Are Doing Next." Seriously, consider explaining yourselves so we can play basketball, not waste everybody's time deciphering gibberish.

Thank you.

Based on two weeks of 2-position training, it looks to me like training is overall more effective this season. We've been asking 80% of what...and I think the "what" is higher than it was before. Which makes sense, or else the off-position, less-effective training would be a total waste of time.

You think regular training has become faster based on 2 weeks of training? Don't you think that's a rather small sample size?

Yes and yes. I got 7 pops in 2 weeks for 5 players training. Maybe they were all on the verge of popping anyway. But it's much better than anything last season. For what it's worth.
