1: Do you really think the way the training method is today is good? The most perfect possible?
No, in my opinion it's complicated, counter intuitive and not user friendly in general.

2: You can be competitive in the major leagues, and trainning for your NT squad? A SF for example?
If you start from scratch, definitely not. If it comes to adding some more easy to train skills (like rebounding or driving/handling) I think you can "finish a product".

3: If you start now, and knew you could not train and be competitive? You motivate with the game?
I would quit.

4: If you think you should change something in the training method, what would you change? Not necessarily something drastic.
Give 4 training slots to every team. 1+2 train 100%, 3+4 80% - you put players in slots, if 48 minutes are played (no matter which position), full training is awarded

5: You would be somehow nervous, angry, unmotivated, if something about the training method, was changed?
No. Any change in this area, towards a more user friendly system, would be a good one I guess.

I LIKE YOUR IDEA FRIEND.

Where would the challenge be in training?

I don't mean to be controversial, but maybe the challenge on a basketball management sim game should be winning sim basketball games, eh?

Very Good Ideia

Yes, that's the aim ! Or you want to tell me that the big teams can not train ? That's right? And I want you to show me where the current practice leaves them more next big teams from small teams ? In practice , I see no relationship between these things . The game is to plan your team . The training is only part of it. I can not believe that only the change in training, will change this so-called "game balance" .

Its not the worst ive seen, but should be better.

I have never been past D.3 and fought for relegation the entire time i was there while trying to train.

i enjoy the game and have recently decided to go homegrown, so i would probably still play.

4: If you think you should change something in the training method, what would you change? Not necessarily something drastic.
I wouldnt change much honestly, i would just eliminate the positional penalties and simply make it 1 position 2 position or team training and i would speed up training so 2 position is more like 1 position speed and 1 position is about 1 1/3 of the current speed.
With height playing into formula you could even say they boost it a little to make it still challenging to train bigs in guard skills and guards in big skills.

5: You would be somehow nervous, angry, unmotivated, if something about the training method, was changed?
If it made it worse, yes. As long as it betters the training i would be all for it. However some of trainermans (sorry to call you out) ideas i have read are simply overboard. Training just needs some small tweaks and it would be perfect i think.
Fix the out of position issue which plagues the game and more people would stay.
