I had a 27 year old who popped 6 times last season. He received 2 position training almost every week, and received two weeks of GS training as well. So a 25 year old should be able to do about that as well.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

may I ask what level trainer you had to make that 27 yr old pop 6 times in one season?

four. I am sure he had high sublevels in all of them, but he popped plenty at 26 as well. A few seasons ago, with a level 5 trainer and single position training for most of the season I had a 25 year old pop 9 or ten times. The 27 year old (who is 28 now) will be getting a fair amount of training this season as well. i will let you know if he pops at all.

What?? Are you serious?? I thought a 25y old can't have more than 4-5 pops with single position training...but what did you train, a fast skill (Passing) or a slow one (JR, OD...)?

Thanks, I might consider training my 26 and 28 year olds just to squeeze in a pop or two.

I trained him all over the place and he popped all over the place. I might be seeing with rose tinted glasses and maybe it was only 7 or 8, but I distinctly remember just being amazed at how much he was popping. He had always been 2 or 3 position trained up to that point (yes- I used to train 3 positions) and it could well be that most of those skills were just a hair away from popping before, but the point is that if you have a guy that you have been training, his sublevels keep going up and eventually he pops. Here is where he stands today:
Jump Shot: sensational Jump Range: proficient
Outside Def.: prolific Handling: prominent
Driving: proficient Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: proficient Inside Def.: prolific
Rebounding: prolific Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: inept Free Throw: respectable

With stats like that he looks like a backup SF... surprised you even bothered training him at such an old age.

First of all, Thailand is a small country.

He can play all 5 positions and rate between 10-13 doing so.
7/21/2011 PF 33 11-21 2-3 2-2 1 8 5 2 3 3 0 26 13.5
7/1/2011 C 36 6-9 2-3 0-0 0 4 3 0 0 1 3 14 10.5
6/25/2011 PG 46 6-19 1-3 2-2 5 10 2 4 5 1 3 15 10.0
6/18/2011 SG 22 5-8 0-1 0-0 2 6 2 2 0 1 2 10 11.5
6/14/2011 SF 35 6-15 1-1 7-10 4 11 4 1 1 3 2 20 12.0

His salary is 35k. He has been a fantastic player for me, and I will say that he is an excellent example of how multi-skilled players outperform their skills.

Last time I saw the world map, Thailand looks just as big as Australia, and its definitely got more people in it!

How much would he be worth on the market right now? 2 mil?

I am talking about the BB world... where it's 639 to 39.
I have no idea how much he is worth on the market. He's better than his market value, that much I know.
There have been 83 recent transfers of 29-30 year old small forwards with sensational jump shot and any potential. Dude is probably better than all 83 of these players, but the few that are most similar have been selling for around $ 300 000 to $ 1 950 000.
