Hey,

I've got a U21 player that the national team is interested in. He's a small forward, so I can only specifically train him at jump shooting, outside shooting, and one on one. I'm new though, so I still haven't figured out how to train properly. Any tips for training a SF with tonnes of upside.

-The Colonel

The u21 coach Mogul has a nice introductory guide posted here: (141616.1)
As has been mentioned you lucked out and got an amazing prospect. Selling him will likely generate something in the $3-4m range, but if you want to keep him then you definitely will need to invest some money and time.
The first thing to note is that you can train him in a variety of positions (and you should do so if you want to make him a SF) but you need to play him out of position. You definitely want to train one position training so that you can take advantage of his potential.
Without seeing his skills I would suggest playing him 48 minutes this week at PG and work on his outside D. I would also contact Mogul and send him his skills and see what specific detailed advice he can give you.

It's nice to see that you generated such a quality player and seem to care about his development. Drafting an 18 y/o all-time great is like winning the lottery. I'll echo that you can train any player at any position. Their listed position is just a recommendation based off their attributes.

That's absolutely amazing that you got a player like that "out of the blue." Selling him would be an great idea (as said by others). Since you are a lower division team, it would be better if you got a Guard or a Small Forward to train instead because of the lower salary they would take towards your team. But that's just my opinion :).

Posts that affect the sale of players are not allowed.

Post the information you posted in the off-site forum rather than here.

Sorry guys, I didn't know that rule. I'll be sure to avoid those types of postings in the future. Thanks a lot, beanerz.

No trouble. It is a rule that I am not crazy about, but it is a rule none the less.

Any post about a player that is for sale or going to be for sale can be trouble, so just keep it in mind.

Canada's national team remains undefeated this season but now face their toughest opponent of the year in the knockout round. I have put some thoughts up about the Iran game on the off-site forum. Go take a look and offer your advice or criticism.

Good luck to Canada for today's game, I always enjoyed this great country, I have many great friends who cheer for the Toronto Raptors, I love the natural beauty, culture, and Leandro Barbosa of course! the idol! the legend! the myth!

finally, I hope that the next America's Cup is there.

Go Canada!

I always had his team as a reference of great team, successful and balanced here at BB. a team that never needed to rent ridiculous players to win.

I always had sympathy, and hoped for you in B3, then of course the Brazilian and Portuguese teams. Because I am of Portuguese descent and parents love that as my second homeland.

So, I just want to express my admiration and ask you, will you come to Brazil? already come? I await your reply.

Thanks.

PS: Before I forget, I'm the coach of the Brazil squad. Sorry for my bad english.
