This is my best rookie right no what do y'all think? If you get 5 pops to allocate where are you putting it?

Weekly salary: $ 4 378

DMI: 51000
Age: 18
Height: 6'1" / 185 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: proficient
Jump Shot: strong Jump Range: average
Outside Def.: strong Handling: strong ↑
Driving: inept Passing: respectable ↑
Inside Shot: atrocious Inside Def.: awful
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: awful Free Throw: strong

Experience: pitiful


5x OD then 5x PA (or the other way around depending who else you are training. Train single position then leave the One to One and Jump Shot training for when he is older and you are forced to train 2 positions.

I like the idea of focusing the rest of the season on OD however I see passing as a pretty easy skill to train so i was planning to go 2weeks OD,2weeks JS, and 1week PA....i am looking to build a SG. Where would you differ?

Edit: typo

I like the first allocation of skills however do you believe that JR is of that much importance? I remember reading in discussion elsewhere with some of the top players ie. jmbcrock saying they didn't rate it that high. Have you had an exprience that has led you to believe otherwise? person my plan was to do OD2, JS2,PA1 and plan of trainig JR when he was older, what do you think of that?

I guess it depends what you value more. If you distribute 25 points between JS and JR then a Trem/Sens (13/12) is more economical than a Marvel/Prom (15/10). Training JS will give him a JR pop maybe once every 3-4 levels. What do you want your player to look like when complete. Which do you think is the better skillset performance wise?

that's quite the trainee, are you planning on making him an outside focused/inside focused SF or attempting to build the hybrid all round SF so rare in BB ;)

well if he had MVP protential i would make him a very balanced player, but i read somewhere that inside skills increases a players salary quicker. I want to train him balanced but more outside cause i have a good PG trainee and a good SG (my best player salary wise). It might make more sense to train more outside. The Australian U21 coach sent me a player with his skills and what i should build him like.

Well JR is important for me. Not as important as my friend Super Fly says, but i can understand his point about the salary. If i had 25 skills to split between of the 2 skills would be something like 14-11. HA 11 is enough for me for every one.

My idea when i train one player 1st is to make him useful as soon as it possible. That means that he must able to shoot and D. Everything else is coming after. He has already good enough PA/HA for now, so i would focus in what i told you. Also something that trainers tend to overlook, is that low JR or any other skill that is on the training cycle being low will slow down the training speed in general. Plus what Super Fly said about JR training JS too.

Out of the given options I'd rather have the 15/10* as I've seen no real reason the persuade me otherwise. I don't see JR as a great training investment so I'd take the extra levels of JS. However I would ideally want it to be (out of 25 points) 14/11 i think prolific is enough jumpshot to be successful from long range. Although at the end of my training for this player i would hope for 15/12.

*I based my decision after having a look at players with both these skillsets on the TL. I do realize though that basing it on the TL is very subjective.
