Semantics:
mos of the trainings train more than 1 skill... PLUS there's a 10% cross training to random skills too...


Semantics.

So, let me ask you this. I practice my inside shooting. Post moves, hook shots, catching alley-oops, layup drills.

How does that make me a better free throw shooter? even in IRL how does that make me a better free throw shooter?

Jump Shot, Jump Range, yeah I can see your point. Driving, Inside shooting.. how's that make free throw shooting better?

It make no sense that a player practice one only skill per week, but in BB it happens.


These are BB league guys though... not NBA legends...

You've never seen a highschooler? or college kid, focus on only one skill at a practice for a week? an emphasis? I have.

Are these usually the best players on the team/in the world, no. But they exist. and it happens. I wouldn't say it "makes no sense" but I would say it's "not Ideal". Maybe in BB some of the players are guys that otherwise would only have the special olympcis to look forward to do to Inclusion rules and discrimination? who can say for the backstory of how the BB leagues were formed? Maybe these players, also have full-time jobs, plus familes, and dont have the time commitment to work on more than 1 skill per week. Think of their families and children!

Okay... then by comparison:
At what age does Ft decline like all the other skills? At what ages does FT train fastest before it hits a peak for the traininpurposes? All of that would have to be calculated and reworked... otherwise everyone would eventually be a legendary Ft shooter...

FT never decline. I still have a 46 year's player with phenomenal FT level. The other skills are between pitiful and inept. Nonsense.

thats my point. As it stands FT never declines...

If we increase the ways to improve FT but keep the lack of itndeclining, we will see more and more and more legendary FT shooters. Which then cheapens the value of FT overall

That's a rate that seems reasonable. I am onboard with you now.

Well, I just read the main post, and I have to agree.

I think FT overall is really frustating for people who train their teams/players. I almost never do team training, even on season ending and allstar when we only have 2 games, I almost always train my boys. When I don't, its because theyre stamina is getting low.

This means every player I buy with low FT, even if he has 19 JS, will stay low forever, every kid that I have with bad FT, will keep the bad FT! This also benefits team that dont train, because they just do teamtraining the whole time.
