I recently bought a 6'8" player who i plan on training up as a PG . I have read in other threads that height effects training speeds and just wanted to know if it effects match performance i.e. the players effectiveness as a guard?

Cheers,

Height only impacts training, not the games themselves.

Any three for me

Height only affects training speed, not in-game performance. A 6'0'' guy with strong rebounding has the same chance of getting a rebound as a 7'0'' guy with strong rebounding (all other things equal).

ok well thats good to know, guess ill just have to tough it out with the outside training and then train his inside skills in a few seasons. cheers for the quick reply

EDIT: Also if it is the case where he lacks in OD ill just use him as my offensive PG and defensive SF, his OD and ID are both respectable so spose a little training in both forms of defense and he should be pretty solid player.
