Since your player has a relatively low potential, I think he can't become a superstar guard who can shoot, defend and pass marvelously. Skills like OD and JR count more towards potential cap than, for example, DR, HA or IS. That's why I'd train this guy to become some sort of Inside specialist guard. He doesn't have a big enough ID to be trained as a SF, but man that Respectable IS is sweet.

So I'd put more emphasis on Driving and Inside shot than JR, for example. OD should of course be as high as possible, but you don't have to stretch too much for a JR of 12, for example; I think 10 would be more than enough and maybe even 9 is ok.

That said, this guy with Wondrous Driving, Tremendous Handling and prominent IS would draw fouls like it's nobody's business. So I suggest One on One for SF/PF when you don't have anything else to train.

I don't buy this. At 6 ft 6, in 6 weeks, you'd be fortunate to get 2 pops in OD out of him. 3 would be near impossible, and 4 is a big no way! 1 pop every 1.5 weeks traing Pressure on a 6 ft 6 guy?



Bosses,

What level trainer are you using?

Jason, as i have been reading this morning, single player training with a L6 trainer can get a 18/19yr old trainee over 6'5" pops every 2 weeks, so its very likely.

Got some thinking to do....

He will need more than 1 full season of single position OD training, so not very good.

I think it would be a lot better if you trained OD to 14 first (a whole season) and then did JR/ JR after that is done. Strong is at best passable for division IV, and terrible in any lover division. When a player is older, it will take longer to train OD. Train OD for a whole season. If you don't, opponent gaurds will score much more than your gaurd can.

What's his game shape?

I wish there were pigmen. You get a few of these pigmen walking around I'm looking a whole lot better. Then if somebody wants to fix me up at least they could say, Hey he's no pig-man!
