Yeah, I don't really think he's going to sell for that price either. Perhaps the manager will lower it when bidding ends.

The manager did seem interested in selling, I'm not sure what his bottom dollar was.

I'm looking for a trainable big man at around that price, but I'd want a lot more for my money to be honest.


He is priced on his potential, but it would be just as worthwhile training a Superstar or even PA with similar age and stats to him as he'll never fulfill HoF potential.

we have very good balanced bigs in the NT where a perennial all star or superstar player cant be any better. (please spare me the 1 or 2 possible exceptions please :) )

we really need better potential players being trained.

I am training bigs, but not the skills this guy needs and the lack off JR and JS makes it unworthwile for an EBBL team and the NT to train him

Didn't mean they would be more suitable for the NT, just that they would be much cheaper and equally trainable with those current skills. A 24 year old HoF with only 75 skill points wont be able to get further than a superstar would before age becomes too big a hinderance.

We should be looking for guys with 75+ skillpoints at 21 to have any hope maxing out HoF potential.


Mars Bars - Nice player and I may watch the auction at that price, but Ideally I want someone 22-23 who can already do a job in the EBBL, and for about 400k at the moment - basically I'm stuffed until I can sell someone.

A guy in my league is selling his draft pick from this last draft, and he looks like he would be amazing if trained by the right team and a high level trainer, already got a solid starting set of skills, and has that high end potential you were saying is needed;

i think price tag for me is too much. and i am also not training guards.

bottle neck for the very long term would be the respectable RB. on a 200k guard this makes up about 40-50k off the salary...

but great starting stats and i do hope someone will pick him up (at a reduced price) and train him well...

looking at him again, he looks very yummy
