Heres my best rookie
Bill Rodriquez (14597111) Power Forward
Weekly salary: $ 4 831

DMI: 37700
Age: 18
Height: 6'10" / 208 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: respectable Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: awful Handling: atrocious
Driving: awful Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: proficient Inside Def.: strong
Rebounding: strong Shot Blocking: pitiful
Stamina: respectable Free Throw: strong

Experience: atrocious

He would be better, but he isn't my number 1 trainee. I am thinking of getting his driving and handling up along with my other player before continuing on the inside skills. I will probably train a little shot blocking because it will help speed up his training.

Ok please provide me with that infomation.

Mathmatically that means your saying age doesn't affect training? If you train one on one when he is 18yo hes driving, handling, JS will improve just as fast as if he is 21? Is that what your trying to say?

Sorry i may have misread what you said

What is your trainer level please? If level 4 i highly dobut this unless he had very high sublevel when you started to train OD. Did you train OD 6 straight weeks or did you train something that affects OD?

I am not saying that age does not affect training but I am 95% sure its not the way most people think. For example the difference between training 18y/o and 21y/0 is rather insignificant so it doesn't really matter what you train first as long as you have some kinda of long-term plans. For exaplme if you have 18y/o with 7 in all guard skills and lets say you want him to have all guard skills at 14 by the age of 22 lets say. In this case it does not matter if you do OD or JR or PS first. In truth the faster skills will train even faster when the player is young which would compensate the slower skills later on. So the end result should be roughly the same. At least thats what I have seen from my team.

I completely agree.
The only difference though is from a psychological point of view. It is better to train the slower things first because it won't take as long to get pops. And so you will have steady progress. However, if you train the quick things first, then you will get lots of really quick pops which is great, but when you get to training the slow things it will be frustrating because it will take weeks to get pops.
