I agree, I just thought that if he never shoots he could still be a good asset. If he is a ball hog, well then I obviously have a problem and will find a new trainee.

Honestly? I do not think so. The main reason is that the OD and ID are really low along with atrocious driving. So regardless if you trained a guard or forward you still wouldn't be able to make up the ground necessary because he is also 6'7'' and not able to train very fast on inside or outside tactics. He seems like a SF candidate however a SF needs to have solid OD/ID and you would have to fix both.

I'm not trying to be a downer, but realistically I don't think he has a shot. Does that mean you shouldn't train him? Absolutely not...with MVP potential he has a lot of good training years without capping.

I based this totally on salary so take this leaderboard with a grain of salt, and remember, like half of our prospects fall off the map pretty quickly, some go bot, etc. So even if you have a 4k salary player or whatever, you still have a chance to make the U21 team, but it will be competitive. The best way to know where you stand is to follow along with the discussions on the offsite forum: (http://s3.zetaboards.com/BuzzerBeater_USA_NT/index/)

If you sign up for the offsite, please use your BB name so we can recognize you, and please bbmail me so I can approve your account!

Hmmmm shouldn't he have been put up for sale since his salary was greater than 5k? I thought they put in that rule but I may be misremembering.

I like ptown's depth.

anyway, other than not being under 21, not being american, & possibly no longer being as skilled as when they made the all-star team, can you tell me why you left these 2 SFs off your leaderboard?

i think if you have a salary under 10k and you go bot you don't go on sale
