BuzzerBeater Forums

HI,

I would like some help.

Recently after reading more into the game (I wasn't so serious in my first season last season, bit clueless) I decided to pick up a few people to train because I think I will get relegated. I saw a 19 year old Hall of Famer and bought him for 500k. I was happy until I read that secondaries are important for big men as well.

Is this guy hopeless? I can't afford a trainer higher than 4.

Weekly salary: $ 4 348
Role: rotation player

Ya, you overpaid huge for this guy.

You can train JS JR OD HA DR up a bit, maybe to 4 each. That will keep is price down before hitting the big man skills. It will take some time with that height.

He'll never be a PF with those secondaries but he can still be a useful C.

I would say that if you have another guy who is taller than this guy, then I suggest you put your biggest guy as center, but if not then put him as a center. If he is the tallest guy on your team, than let him be center. From looking at how you described him, doesn't seem suitable for a PG or a SF. It would be smart to put him as C or PF. Make him get better on his inside shot, defense, and free throws.

Actually, he should put the player with better secondaries at PF and the one with better IS/ID/RB at C. Height has no effect in the game.

hey guys, i read all of the above and still couldn't decide how to train this guy.

i have him for 10 days now, and he seems like a nice catch for 13k.
i want him to be a nice PF/C for the 4th and 3rd class league, and ofcurse, i want to maintain his low salary for as long as i can.
i have another 20 years old trinee, but he has a bad potientia (starter) and a bit highier.
so i'm trying to dance on both weddings here.
last week i traind them IS, and i'm about to do so for a few weeks now.

i would be grateful for some advice.

as an overall advice, it would be better to train some skill for a few weeks in a row, or to change every week?
