I wonder what mysterious info you Americans conceal in the offsite if even the blog isn't accessible for foreigners. (Subtle hint: link doesn't work for non-offsite users)

Outtake from Rhyminsimon's training simulator, he uses these coefficients to account for the elastic effect:

JS DR 0,011
JR JR 0,000
OD HA 0,007
HA OD 0,050
DR HA 0,005
PA HA 0,030

I love the question.

I am wondering the same thing. What could be expected from this trainee below for instance;

Jump Shot: proficient
Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: sensational
Handling: prolific
Driving: prolific
Passing: mediocre
Inside Shot: awful
Inside Def.: strong
Rebounding: respectable
Shot Blocking: awful

Training ideas and expectations welcome.

Best not to ask, at least, unless you're interested in seeing a drone up close and personal. ;)

Well, as full disclosure, the elastic effect is not fully understood. Those coefficients came from some statistical analyses (which I don't have a ton of knowledge about). I do seem to remember there being a new season post a few seasons ago saying that the elastic effect would now have a small effect across ALL skills. Looking at the trainee above, that would make his IS train faster. It also said that it would still be linked to related skills, so that would make his Passing train faster.

There was a post a long time ago from JosephKa (user who made Coach Parrot) that argued that the elastic effect is shared across skills that train the same (for example, Passing would be lifted by Handling and Driving). It seems to make sense based on rumor, but I don't think the BBs will ever fully confirm how it all really works
