I've been on BB for a couple years, but haven't really paid deep attention for awhile. I am thinking of restructuring my team once again. I currently have $700,000 in funds available. I do not have a trainer, and am going to purchase a new one. My stadium will have 7,250 seats completed very shortly. I want to start my team from scratch and develop players from there. Because of this, I do have a couple questions and would love any advice.

Player
At what time are the transfer market prices most inflated?
What should I train on the player below until we reach the inflationary period (When I will sell him)?
Do you have an estimate as to how much he might go for on the market?

Trainer
What trainer skill level is most efficient (when factoring in price to pay)?
How much should I pay for the trainer?

Future Development
What player development plan should I go down? Purchase 2 new rookie bigmen, 2 guards? (potential)?

Miscellaneous
Is there a website called bb-stats still? I remember using it in the past and it give some pretty good training graphs.

1. The market seems to be most inflated when the player acquisition deadline is near (I believe it's the Sunday after the last game). People are gearing up for the playoffs and will pay top dollar.

2. I think he'll sell better if you work on his secondaries or you can go a different route and just pump the primaries, he'll sell either way

3. Hard to say, I wouldn't be surprised at anything over 2 million

4. Advanced

5. Anything up to 25k or so is reasonable

6. That would depend on your preferences. It appears that you know how to trade bigmen so I'd probably go with those. I think superstar potential leaves plenty of room for growth for most leagues

7. Sorry, can't tell you for sure. Never heard of it.

Thank you for the responses! I appreciate the help.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

At first, sorry for my bad English :)

Do you wanna train only to make a profit? If answer is yes, the best choice is buy 18 yo players with potential between 5-8. You can buy them very cheaply (max 100k). You should buy players with high sum of skills. If you want buy guard nice bonus is some inside skills (big man some outside skills).

Level of trainer 4 or 5. It depends on market prices. Of course with low salary (lvl 4 about 20k). You are able to train 3 guys in full training. After 3-4 seasons training you can sell them easily for 1-2M.

About your current 23 yo player. I think it's waste of time train him without trainer. You can't make profit, if you bought him for 2M. It's my opinion. More important is expansion of stadium, it brings you a lot of money in long term.

Hey guys. I have a question regarding a newly bought player. I was wondering whether the minutes he played at a particular position reflect in your weekly training session. For example, if i bought a player on Thursday, who has played 50 minutes at pg, will he receive a pg training on Friday or he had to play those minutes in my team for receiving the training?

Ok, I see. Thanks for the response.
