It would be the best if we could train the whole team, but I'm afraid that will never happen, like to give you to train all your drafted players.

Someone would train 3 players and you should be able to train 15 if you draft them? No way this will happen in my opinion.

I have the same beef with the current training system and would like to ditch the draft for a youth squad or some D-league option, to develop a bunch more players. But I think it's gonna be is what it is.

You have the same problem like the rest of us!
We all want to train MORE players FASTER and BETTER and without sacrificing anything at all =)

If you have more than 3 players, you need/try to plan your training.
As you know there are a few trainingsmethods who require atleast 2 positions.
* Rebounding, 1on1 and Jump shot. (Not losing trainingspeed!)
* You could also train all the 1pos as 2pos with a slight decrease of trainingspeed (but you train MORE players).

You may still need to play them out of their positions.
As the game has evolved lately, a guard needs a lot of inside and a big guy needs a lot of outside, so playing them out of their position is more or less a given thing for all (training) managers.

If BB want us to keep our draftees, they could either:
a) reduce the salary of "homegrown" players, like 10% or something.
and/or
b) give them a performance-bonus if they are "homegrown", like 5% or something.
Training your own draftee would then be more lucrative than training a bought player with slightly higher potential.

That seems to be a common misunderstanding of anyone's post who suggests reforming training. It couldn't be more incorrect.

Players don't get worse until they are 33, and even then it takes a while for their skills to decrease quickly. Also, any team only needs 10 players at the most who are at least relatively high-skilled. Because of this, players lasting many seasons and not many players needed per team, there just is no need reason for people to trade more than they are.

As far as I know its 32.

Aha. Okay.
