A well-trained PG with star potential would look something like this when his training finished: (I'm sure you'll disagree)

10/8/14/12/12/10 6/6/6/4

While a SG would look something like: (again, I'm sure you'll disagree)

11/9/14/12/12/8 7/7/6/4

This type of player will easily sell on the TL. Not for the millions you seem to be talking about, but he's valuable nonetheless. On top of this, his salary will be manageable in lower divisions and he can play well in most any offense.

On top of this, a team full of veterans is static, while a team being properly trained will vastly improve through the course of a season. The 420k cost is easily covered through increases in attendance and future sale of trained players.

Daytrading is time-intensive and has a diminishing rate of return. The easiest and most effective path to success is to follow hrudey's template.

Please link the team you've been mentoring, either in BB-mail or on here. I'd be interested to see....

Also, I removed my earlier inflammatory comment. Please forgive me. ;)

I got a buddy in US who signed up 2 seasons ago, promote, promote...no problem. He is smart htough and can take advice.....He buys players for like 1k and sells them for 20k or so. Simple strategy and it works.

This team?
(30254)

Um, he's been here over a year. The other teams you keep knocking have only started this year. He has nearly 1 and a half seasons on me. It took him 3 seasons to promote. Well this is my 3rd season, and it looks good, but I don't want to jinx myself. Not only that, but that league has looked like its been filled over half with bots.

Revisionist history aside. That's not much different then what I'm doing. For him starting 4 months earlier then me, I'd say my arena is just as nice, no?

Yes thats true and thats the reason im two position training, so i can train my other players at the same time cause this guy can still cap with 2 position training by the time hes like 21-22

This is easily the worst advice I have ever seen in almost 10 seasons of Buzzerbeater.


Train 1 on 1 dude. Get a level 4 trainer..and have fun.
