No problem. Both your teams are really interesting. I think it's good that your MVP guys are still popping.
In my opinion, trainees are ridiculously important. If you look at my players at the PG and SG positions, they all started out as trainees. My 16k PG/SG, I've been training since Season 17. It took a long time (5 seasons!), but training him and some of the others was completely worth it. My SG Charles Boyle I drafted after Season 18. He's now a decent outside shooter for D-4. I recently got an 18-year old superstar, Hector Jennings. After a few seasons, I bet he'll be a monster. So, there you go. I really like training trainees, because I think it's so worth it in the end. I normally train Jump Shot and Outside Shooting, even though most people advise me not to train Outside Shooting. I think Outside Shooting should be trained sometimes at least, especially for the Run and Gun teams. Occasionally, I train handling, driving, passing to keep those skills up, but I mostly train for pure shooting offense. Maybe you don't want to be as extreme as I am, but hey, whatever works!
I actually haven't given that much advice to Ohmers. He takes his advice from another friend (the one who rage-quit because D-4 was too difficult for him).
