He is talking about his 3k P. allstar PG and his 2.2k Superstar SG (PG is 18 and SG is 19)

But we would need to see their skills before we could help him out.

I dont think they are worth training. First is too old, too bad and second has lost a year already. Since you can only train such a small number of players, I wouldnt spend any time with them. If you cant get anything better, keep the second.

Neither are worth training. Wait until after the draft in a couple of weeks and the market will be flooded with cheap 18 year old's with decent potential. Buy 2-3 of them.

I just started this game a few weeks ago, so I had no clue...
first one is already in my roster and second I bought recently.

too old is too bad, but it's nice to know.
if they aren't worth training, i'm gonna train other 3 C's at the age of 18s.

I would recommend you starting out with star or allstar potential players.

I disagree. You can find decent trainees with Perennial AS and Superstar potential for under $10,000 if you're patient. If you're going to keep them or sell them, either way you might as well have someone with the potential to get their salary to $50K or more.

I think it depends a bit on how much time you have to shop for trainees and how much effort you put into learning the game straight away. If you're not high on both, training a Star or Allstar with great starting skills can be a good way to get a hang of it without spending too much time and effort, and be able to get a decent starter and backup for later. If you can get a PAS for a low price like that, that's great. Main thing is that he shouldn't spend too much money on a trainee that he's not going to train properly (unless he wants to dive into the game with a mentor quickly).
