Absolutely correct , which is why i have been leaning towards playing him as a point guard the last month or so , and i prefer to play run and gun if im experimenting in matches , thus not exposing his abysmal inside shooting. He has really been on fire the last few games though , albeit against some poor opposition , but a few games in the cup against decent d4 opposition , and in my last cup game against a much better team from the division above where i taught them a lesson in basketball.

I am thinking of training all of the below of PF's together they are all well balanced and should be very good PF when they reach 23-24 year range.

What are your thoughts?

depends on your plans for him. Some additional JS would be nice, but if you're training on a single position, it might be better to wait a little further. He's far from finished though, so you can work on almost any (outside) skill and improve him. But you could determine what to train if you know which position he's supposed to play in the future.

For a PG, train his OD and Passing. For a SG, train his OD and JR. And for a Combo Guard, train his OD, Passing and JR about evenly (perhaps a little more OD)

My GUN rookie would be the best 18 year old going around in Australia i reckon at the moment.

Training is coming along nicely, and he is dominating so many games this season!

Hi there,
Welcome to BB and i hope you are enjoying your first season here with us!

Fingal here, is not a bad looking English player. He's only 19, he has superstar potential (which is more than enough for him as an outside player) and has, with the exception of Inside Shot, some very good starting skill levels.

I would consider training him either as a SG or PG, rather than a SF, mainly because his IS is very low and to bring it up to the level of his other inside skills would take a long time. (Not to mention all of his inside skills would then need to be increased a few levels more after this).

Training as either a PG or SG would require many increases in outside defence and other relevant outside skills. I see he has had an increase already there in the last week before posting. Inside Shot for PGs or SGs isnt as important as many of the other skills, because on an offense they will generally drive/pass/jump shoot to give their team the best offensive opportunities to score. Even this will depend somewhat on the tactics you choose.

His high starting Inside Defence is a nice bonus and may increase slowly when you train his outside defence. Assuming you train his outside skills very well, in all but the top divisions you maybe be able to play him at SF and contain at the defensive end, but with a low IS he may struggle to contribute offensively, particularly if he faces an SF who can defend inside and outside.

I must say though, in your league and probably in Division 3 when you earn promotion, a player like this will grow with your team and lead the team as he is trained well.

i hope the advice / hints have been helpful.
if you would like to keep in touch or ask more questions about what i have posted, post me, or bbmail me back.
cheers
