you've done this or are you just guessing? I'd have to disagree with you. the limited times i've done team training on rebounding and one-on-one have been greatly beneficial to my entire team.

Well maybe where some decimals on your players, and they poped up, but if u r doing that on consistent base you will see that the results are poor. If i tried it? no! It was the 1st advice that i got from the friend that invited me here

You train specific players to specific skills that fits with there position. No reason for example to train 7'3 C OD. Team training u r using only for FT and stamina. If you train 1 skill all the team, the result will be so poor...


Why wouldnt you train OD on a Center? (this is a serious q.) I appreciate it might not contribute so much to the team ratings but against teams running an outside offence i think this is a very useful skill.

It is useful, but doesn't it take a long time to pop?

Do NOT listen to Johnny. He is absolutely wrong. With a 7'3" C, OD is a great thing to train because it allows you to be able to run a strong outside defense. If you're running FCP or 1-3-1, wouldn't you want your C to be able to play OD strongly? There is not a good reason to NOT train your C in OD.

Just as long as it would take to train him in JS or JR with the rest of the team.

OD takes longer to pop than JS.

Especially when OD is a lot more height dependent than JS.

That's absolutely wrong actually. There's no reason to waste training on a C, especially one that it that large. It will take forever and it's a waste of training. It's not even needed.

As for jump range, it's only useful if you play perimeter and you want a guy who's good from 3 point range.

Well its not proven either way which is the beauty of training.

Yes its slow and whether it justifies the time is the question.

1 thing is for sure is that it does fetch a premium on the transfer market. That can be said of a lot of the more difficult training regimes.

I wouldnt be so quick to dismiss the possibility if not for your own teams tactics but for others.

Every skill is useful. I am not denying that, but some skills are much more useful for a certain positions. Why waste your training for a team training that is painful slow, and not focus to develop fast the young/good potential players that you (maybe) have? Even on zone tactics for example that u r guarding space the big men staying inside, they are not hunting guards outside. You can have valid point if we talking for PF's, as my PF has promiment IS and same on JS, but i rather 1 pop up more on rebounding for example than on OD.

youve just hit the nail on the head.

search the market for a decent centre and you can pick up someone with low handling/driving/od and js for very cheap.

search again with od/js and all of a sudden you see a price rise.. the time training will add value to you if you then convert your star centre to PF then repeat with a new Centre OR if you decide to cash in.

i might have misunderstood the thread if the topic is about team training... i certainly wouldnt recommend this unless you are faced with a 2 game week. but OD for a PF is very nice and if you can pick up a decent centre with respectable OD i think the time it takes to get to strong better still proficient will give as good a return as using that time on a more traditional guard type player.
