Hey Murl,
you can allways mail me about your player. I've just saw your thread incidentally.
But I guess everything had been allready written about your player. Unfortunately he's too old. You would need a whole season to bring Jump Shot- and range on an aceptable level. After that, you shoul increase his passing and defending skills. Maybe you're lucky with him and he gets better very fast, but I don't really believe he will.
Anyways,
best regards
