Great HoF Shooting Guard falls into hands of active manager. Hopefully he doesn't have a glaring weakness.

id love to see his skills. Surely respectables at JS,JR,and the four inside skills?

Shame he is 19 and slightly that he is PA potential, but if he is a flukey all round respectable then maybe he is worth training as an SF for a team. (highly unlikely at nt level though)

he isnt the best, because there is always better possible, but i think he could make a great C.

Handling and passing are all there. Good potential, and even decent OD. Js and Dv are easy trainable.

I really love this guy.

Pretty much echoing what astra said, I really like this guy DR/JS are easily trainable with some 1v1 training and that potential is just great.

He's pretty good - and easy to train as he has JR,,passing, OD and way more handling than driving. I would single position OD to 9, passing to 9, then single position ID to 13, then switch to two position training and go rebounding to 13 - which will push up the ID some more, then one on one forwards, jump shot forwards and finally top up IS, which will receive lots of secondary pops with all the ID, 1 on 1 and jump shot training anyway.

Damn, that's a nice trainee. Keep the big man skills 13-15 to keep the salary down until you are ready to finish the build.

totally agree

this is the kind off player i was and have been so many times talking about.

these are the kind off players we need to get trained for the NT.

he isnt perfect, but if well trained, something along the lines Elmacca says, he will be a starter for the NT, I am sure, because hardly anyone with secondaries is coming through at the moment.

yeah you shouldnt worry about him not being "perfect" no rookie ever is.
as we are all saying he is the great "compromise" trainee we have been looking for - great outside skills, ok inside skills to start with. Awesome.

My opinion is that he is an excellent trainee if you (or someone else) can start him on outside training first before switching to inside skills when he's basically otherwise done outside.

id be tempted myself except im losing my stomach to train those newbie 18 year olds ;)
