That's really interesting. I love the idea of doing something out of the box, although you seem to have set yourself up for perpetual frustration with the GE's hatred of all outside offenses.
What do you shoot for on OD, PA, and SB with your guards? What kind of builds are you aiming for with your post trainees?
I would have liked more OD. They're all at 15 OD, and getting there was a slog because it took so freaking long to get the JR and then the SB. They're at like 8, 6 and 3 passing, and that was because my draftee started at 1 PA as well as I think 1 SB. One of these times I'm going to learn to not keep a draftee and actually buy all three trainees, but I always seem to value the idea of keeping one of them if they're close to what I'm doing. So that's the starting three guards. My backup guards are all highish JR guys but with less JS by far (one's 8 JS/19 JR) and 14 or higher OD.
I still waver on the bigs. Half the time I'm thinking I'm going to just say screw anything but ID/SB/RB and take those as far as possible, with maybe 16 or 17 RB and the other two hopefully into the 20s. Sometimes I think I may instead try to get some JS and JR on them since big men tend to shoot much better from outside than they should, at least, they did with my princeton-focused team before I finally aged them out and started the rebuild that brought me here ever so briefly. I'm still debating whether or not I'm going to bother trying to put more OD on them, too - here again, I have coincidentally 8, 6 and 3 (like the guards' passing), and again it's the draftee at 3 (though at least there was no training).
At this point, yeah, the frustration is real. My team shoots better from 3 than from 2, by design and statistically it holds up. But the engine doesn't care - I think I've literally had games where I've made more threes than twos, but they still won't shoot more shots from three to compensate.
