I want to know if its possible to completely use the legend (10) potential, that you really hit the cap, while training the player his whole career on 2 position training into a SF..

If yes, do you hit the cap at what age? 28, 30?

If not, is it possible as a guard or center?

Maybe its a stupid question.. But a really important one because of long term plans..

Thanks in advance

If possible, its barely affordable. I guess we'll never really know.

Good luck with it anyways;)

Thanks for your quick reaction..

Im not talking about money. I know its better to not buy a legend and train him 2 positions and then sell him when he is young.

I just want to know if its possible or not and at what age you will hit his ceiling

I'm curious as to the answer as well. I've got a hall of famer 18 year old with A+ skills out of the draft, and I'd like to keep him to base my franchise around, but reading a lot of these posts I'm recognizing that he may be too expensive to keep in a couple seasons (I'm on Div. V) unless I promote every season which is highly unlikely. I'm planning on training him like crazy.

It's possible to train your guy in a way to keep your trainee cheap, my u21 guards have been 32-34k at the start of their respective campaigns, around 50k the next.

As long as you train him in a balanced way, you will have around 6/7 seasons to move up before you have to sell, just make sure you expand your arena capacity and invest in a level 5 coach.

It depends on how you want to train your player, an level 7 potential can be maxed out around 23/24.

According to all the research ATG is the same as the peak HOF, but it does have a cap.

By research I mean JosefKa's guy

I think you should be in good shape. SF is one of the best positions to get a highly talented player without an obscene salary. My SF Marrinan, admittedly is close to being capped as a Superstar potential, but he has 106 skill points distributed (not including ST or FT) and should be on a $60k/week salary next year. Which is expensive, but he'd do some serious damage if put in a lower division.

In short, train him right and don't overtrain the high salary areas; for example popping his JS as high as it can go won't make him a great player, but his salary will increase greatly.

Okay so we actually have an ATG hitting his cap in BB. Didn't expect it though. O_O


Its a center that has received 1-position training for the major part of his career. I seriously doubt you can cap a legend doing 2-position training, especially if it is an SF.

Yes, it's possible to exploit his full potential only by 2 position training. In fact it's very easy, for example if You'll train only JS during whole career.
No, it's impossible to exploit his full potential only by 2 position training and if You want to have good SF. Currently the best SFs in this game can't exploit even MVP potential and they are trained on one position by trainers with level 6 or higher.
