Ok, I know, if I want to make Coleman a PF, he should have somewhat good JS. And I also know both is gonna blow up on me soon (S22 as it seems) so just posts here and BB-Mail me how much they could be worth (been doing calculations and seen Coleman's a 60ker and Delong's a 100+ker 110ker at most) But need to know what TPE should I put them at when at S22. (BB-Mail since you can't posts Transfer calculations in Forums)

I'm training OD now. Then passing and inside skills/1vs1.

wish I could have those two guys they're nice, coming out good. Do you plan on on making 1 a SmallForward and 1 a PowerForward? or 1 a Power Forward and 1 a Center?

I make them SF and PF, I hope that first guy gets OD 12 and passing 10.

I know that their potential isnt that great and also theyre already 20 turning 21 next season but i think i can manage 2 decent players for myself anyway. This season im trying to get their RB up to 13-14 and next season concentrate on IS, ID & DR, JS

um, don't do rebounding. It eats up too mych salary/potential cap. I'd do some ID before REB. you don't want to risk the fact that rebounding could cap your trainees a few weeks earlier. A few extra pops somewhere else would matter. So switch Rebounding to ID.

The guy is in a D2 league, so he'll need the rebounding. And with 8 potential he should be able to comfortably fit at least 14/14/14 inside skills. Even 16/16/16 is possible depending on their shot blocking (and JS too).

Personally though, I'd be more worried about their passing. They have nice handling but ouch that PA is terrible. Still, these guys are gonna be good players for his team.

Guys, thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it.

@tough: nothing wrong, but in my situation (like Tangosz said) i really need the RB A.S.A.P. the main reason i keep losing to close rivals is fewer rebounds (i cant hold my boards and i rarely crash theirs)

@Tangosz: Yes, the PA is terrible but it is quite hard to look for trainees w/ atleast mediocre subskills when youre on a budget.
I was in a tight spot when i bought them. But yeah, theyre gonna be good anyway. Im thinking 14/14/14 and then maybe IS 18 if the cap allows them to.
