Hi all,
I just started to play this game from last week.
My best player so far is...


[Canada]
Paul Barratt (14046064)
Center

Weekly salary: $ 4 477

DMI: 10600
Age: 19
Height: 6'8" / 203 cm
Potential: hall of famer
Game Shape: respectable

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

Experience: atrocious

So i plan to train some of his free throw.
I get him played 48+ minutes this week, but he doesn't increase his damn free throw(there are 6 players who got the pump except him!!!!)
So I believe that the computer has put on random people eh?
Does anyone know how to target free throw on specific player?

Highly unlikely as your player is already 19 years old and the skills are not that high.

*Looks around wondering who wants to field that one*

*Sees no volunteer and goes: "Oh well, I'll take it then!"

First, you drafted him as a 19 year old. Strike one.

Second, you seem to have mostly played him at SG, which means you probably were dual position training him (The only single position training at SG is Jump Range, and by the looks of him, he didn't get a full season's worth of single position training). Strike two.

Third, he's barely a pop over what some of the best draft picks will be next season (the strong in Jump Shot). Which means that an 18 year old drafted next season will haev roughly the same skills as Bourque. Strike three,

Finally, this isn't a strike, just a general comment. In two in-game chat sessions, I've seen you spam him on the chat twice each session, and be told he wasn't good enough each time. I'm usually a patient man. I also understand that there's a learning curve to this game, but this implies that there should be some learning going on. This is just getting ridiculous and that's the reason I don't run for the NT manager job (I probably wouldn't get it anyways if I did run, but that's another can of worms.)

Continue enjoying the game, read the amazing game guide by Rip88 and the FAQ by Naker Virus here: (144856.1) if you have any questions about the game.

But, please, for the love of everything holy, stop asking whether Bourque is good enough, he wasn't then, he isn't now, he will never be!

Cheers!
Martin

*slinks back to his hole in the ground* :D
