Howdy Xarn, good to see you bringing together a decent team here. Let me know if you need any pointers from me- my experiences in the Irish Cup Final (loser) and currently undefeated league win streak have given me a lot of insight into how to do things right....

... but seriously, am looking to go to the premier league next season for a bit stiffer competition. I am building up my TS as we speak.

Looking back, perhaps this could be my PF?

Jump Shot: awful Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: respectable Handling: respectable
Driving: awful Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: average Shot Blocking: pitiful
Stamina: awful Free Throw: average

Experience: mediocre


He doesn't have the O/S to be a SF/SG. He doesn't have the SB to be the PF/C but he does have all around decent skills, which I've bolded. So I go from Strong Rebounding with virtually no other skills to a bunch of Respectables with Average rebounding.

I'm going to try this in my next game (another TIE win) unless you tell me this guy stands no chance of being any good at PF either.

So this thread doesn't seem to be getting much traction amongst the users.

Are there not many newbies on the forums? If so, what can we do to increase that?

Secondly, if this is going to be more about MY specific team and not general development questions I'm going to ask this as a particular question.

What do I have to do to get Aidan Mays on the u21 team?

Lots of everything except Jump Range, and as much . 10 in jump range is good enough.

Better if you can do more single position training on OD/HA/PA.

Ok I'm nothing like an expert but since there's no answer to your question yet, I'll try.

I think it's a good idea to try this guy out as a PF. I'm guessing that at your level he'll be good enough to take out inside- as well as outside-minded PF players. So in defensive respect he's pretty solid. He makes a reasonable inside shot if your opponent's PF is not that strong and also his passing will give him a few nice assists each game (my guess is it would be about 4 average if he playedin my league/team).

His rebounding is a bit low but he'll still get a few rebounds.

Summarized: I'd give him a try if I were you and see whether it works for you.
