Ah ok, I probably should have sold my PG whilst he was in the U21's hehe ;) and begged Eminence to advertise him for me

But thank you for the info!

This guy is a dream for an EBL wannabe team in div II especially if they train big men and as you say have career extension on their trainer. OD14 is very respectable at my level and on the odd occasion he is a weakness there he would more than make up for it at the other end of the court (in my opinion).
Valuing him is tricky though as a 100k paypacket is quite an outgoing for a team in div II even if they have fully invested in their arena. But you never know you could get a fair offer.

I think Bidny is good for a while yet - but I've accepted I can't beat Swindon for the title with him in my starting 5. He's won two tournaments though and is a top class player. He'd certainly get a II-level contender get promoted - I'm surprised not to have received any kind of offer yet.

that is surprising but i also wonder how many II level read the forums or are searching the transfer market right now.
i must admit im very tempted but until i know what division my team will be in (and ive worked out my training plans) i wont make any decisions.
thing is ill likely be training at PG and i wouldnt want to play him SG really

He's a better SF than SG, which is where I play him when I'm training at PG.

Couple of English Bigs up for sale for 1.5 million(I'm not sure if those prices are firm or if there is room for negotiations):

(18060446)-Bit one dimensional, but still relatively young

(13410029)-On the team now, great scorer

And in the more expensive category at 2.1 million

(16275465)-Can't say for certain but should be very close to NT level

And in this post I'll be putting 18 year olds who could be of interest to everyone:

(25078903)-Nice starting skills, solid height too for a PF type player

If someone buys Hongs, he is very close to NT -- please train inside skills for half a season or so!

Given that you've been AWOL pretty much all through your first season (I know, you've been busy at work) and have precisely zero chance of re-election, do you really think you still have a remit to give out advice?

My take, is that Hongs needs one and one forwards training and more offense - he's an NT SG in the making. But I'd be far more interested in what Eminence thinks as he is highly likely to be the NT manager Hongs plays for.

i havent got my stats with me but im pretty sure hongs is one of the first batch of trainees i started to track many seasons ago and he started out with some awesome skills. Pretty sure he was looking like an SG early on but unfortunately i missed his current skills when he was just listed.

Mzungu there is a definite common thread that you want to see better inside skills on NT SGs in future. Im aware of the targets you have set for me and my player. Id be very interested in learning what some other manager's views are of targets for inside skills as this season i will have to decide exactly how many inside skills i add to my own guards.
It wont be an easy decision because for every skill point i add now im concerned it will be at the expense of a skill point or two down the line in his outside skills when his training speed slows down a load.
Training players this age and older is new territory for me and i dont want a couple of botched guards at the end of it!
This will have to be my honeymoon homework ;)
