I'm in sort of a rebuild or reload. I am looking to train a couple guards to boost their inside shooting. My trainees are 6ft or 183cm. I've read that training short players inside shooting is incredibly slow once they are older....whats a good age should I train IS. They're pretty boosted in HA and DR right now but is it worth skipping a half season on OD and pound in IS and then train they're outside skills?
They are both 20 and 21 yrs old. Appreciate any advice.

Wow! 2 seasons for only 5 pops? That is incredibly slow. I guess I should continue on outside training and leave the inside training to forwards and big men. Thank you

Ah, gotcha. Currently they are both at 10 IS. But I'm not used to training bigs. So training 1v1 forward will also take more time to get inside shooting pops compared to JS as they get older I would imagine.

What is considered Short Player in this game? Under 6ft5? Before inside shooting slows?

It depends on who you ask, but I personally believe players are short (to be big men) at 6'7" and smaller. However, I did train a 6'8" player who ended up being a serviceable guard for a few seasons.

A player that is 7' will train in IS faster than a 6'6", if I remember correctly.

This is taken from Coach Parrot. Didn't test it myself, but I think it is quite reliable.

That's nice to know...appreciate the heads up. So, should 1v1 forwards be the only way to get pops in inside shooting or would it be fast to play my trainees 1 position such as IS/C? IF I have a trainee at 6ft6? I totally live by the start off with 1v1 for the first couple seasons, then train OD, some PA and the boost more OF while mixing in 1v1
