Hi all so I purchased a player who I thought was the perfect trainee for my team...however he is 6.0 feet tall and I was planning on making him a power forward. Yes I neglected to look at his height before placing a drunken bid one evening. Anyway my question is this - how badly will his height slow down Inside defence and shot blocking training? Depending on how bad the slow down is due to height I might need to get rid of him and try again. Anyway any advice appreciated thanks

I'm assuming Melvin Paz (47477358) is the player you're referring to.

So the short answer is that his height is a significant problem.

Long answer: A 21 y/o at 6'10" would get about 50% more out of training ID and 25% more out of training SB. Additionally, probably wasn't advisable to drop $600k on a 21 y/o at $5.8k salary with only a few weeks left in the season. MVP potential is nice, but at 21 it's clear he wasn't getting adequate training. I'd offload the player and save for 18 y/o superstar+ trainees generated next season.

Hi,

Thanks for the answer.

How confident are you in those %'s? 50% seems like a lot...I obviously realised there would be a drop off but didn't think it would be that high.

Did you get them from any particular source or are they estimates based on your experience?

They're estimates from the USA offsite.

I was using training simulator and noticed something weird. The passing was going up faster with higher players. Is that true or is there something wrong with the code?

Taller players train passing faster. Not by a lot though.
