Lmao, you want to create Andrea Bargnani. See how many games you'll win. (hint: not many).
It is much easier for defence if the opponent relies on a single scorer.

My opponents have big problmes defending my team because I have very balanced scoring. In my game on Saturday evening four of my five starters scored twenty points or more. Hennessey got 28. This tends to happen every game. Very balanced scoring.

There isn't much competition in your league, not many players who can cause your PF problems.

You may be in for a rude shock once you promote.

why has no one including your under 21 coach told you that your player isnt a pf

his clearly a center.

lv 1 od on a pf is game over.

trying to his jumpers at a good rate with lv 3 jump range is game over.

the guys a center , pump his is , rbd , js and drv if you want a pure scorer

then play him in center pos

might want to inform ur under 21 coach that you have a center not a pf aswell

Thanks for that. I have played him at centre and have been considering doing so. Of course, you`re right. His defensive weakness will be less exposed at the centre position.

Playing him at centre would cause a problem however because my current starting centre is my best inside defender and inside scorer. He has also led my league in blocking during the last two seasons. So, I am reluctant to play Hennessy at centre yet. Once he has improved more then I may move him to centre. I have aquired an 18 year old power forward to train alongside Hennessy so he may become my power forward for the future.

To be honest the biggest reason I love playing this game is because I love developing players. Seeing young players improve season after season gives me more satisfaction than winning games. Some people may think that`s wrong but hey we all play this game for different reasons.

Thanks to all of you for your comments. They are all much appreciated.

Mark

hey man i know plenty of guys who for them a big reason they keep playing this game is training there young guns.

im about to join the ranks of trainers myself having got a 18 yr old very balanced mvp potential guy :)

ive invested in a lv 7 trainer to get those pops coming :)

whats your od of your current center ? if its higher then 1 he will do just as good playing pf as he will center n be less of a liability on def then your current pf

If your C has better OD than atrocious, switch the defensive assignments so that your PF defends as C and your C defends as PF. his inside D will help against PFs quite a bit, too.
