Thanks for your suggestions, i will try to make him well balanced SF. Considering your explanation about 1 on 1 training, i will prefer 1 on 1 forwards this season, cause i want him to get inside training while training speed is high (age between 18-20) and height of player is low for inside training , and then he could take outside training.

İf i give outside defense for PG/SG, is the difference drastically much between PG/SG and only PG training? Because i have 4-5 good trainable players in my roster.

The two position pressure is definitely noticeably slower - not terribly so, but if the one position training would be 2 weeks, it'll take more like 2.5 for two position. I could probably track down my old training data on pressure for 18 year olds since I did a lot of 2 position with my initial trainees, but the link Tangosz gave is probably even more accurate.

So, here are my 3 trainees:

and not so important 19 year old:

So what you guys suggest?

i would train them a little more in passing and OD until they reach 8+. mix in some 1on1 for forwards and continue with insideskills (block, ID) after allstar break.

they look both very promising.

what do you guys think of this guy. i just grapped him of the transferlist and i am not sure if i did good.

i bought for 400k

$ 8 114
age: 20
6'5" / 196 cm
potential 10

JS: 8 JR: 7
OD: 11 Hdl: 8
drive: 5 Pal: 8
IS:: 3 ID: 7
Reb: 6 Bl: 4

They are tall, but since their OD is good to begin with, you could try getting them all to strong. Next, I recommend training PA until strong or proficient. Since PA trains fast at any height, this shouldn't be much of a problem.

After that, I would do 1v1 Forwards, which trains JS/HA/DR/IS. If I remember correctly, taller height will give them more JS than IS training, while partially improving HA/DR.

To be honest, I would spend this whole season training secondaries. This will help keep their salaries low for a longer period of time, improve their performance on the court, and increase their TL value. Since the 3rd guy is 19, I would make him your 3rd trainee, while the first 2 are your main focus.

If you need more help or specifics, feel free to BB-Mail me.

He is a very decent prospect. However, his height will make guard and inside skills a bit harder to train. Do you want him to be a PG, SG or combo guard?

I would probably start him off with JS/1v1 Guards. After getting his DR to 7, I would give him 1-2 weeks of PA. Next, I would train OD until he popped to 13. Lastly, I would probably give him a bit more 1v1 Guards.

Hey you were right my trainee indeed popped after first week :)

Awesome :)

I'm planning to do some more 1on1 Guards. Then some passing. Then next season I am going to work on rebounding.
He started at 18 as a point guard. So he has been really fun to train. His only skills that aren't good are JR/SB. I don't think I will train these skills anyway. Planning to make him into a premier SF/PF. Any suggestions?
