That was the player at the top of my board...went number 1. :(

Imagine if X-Steppers would've picked him up...O_O

I invested nothing and I got a very nice guard with A/S potantial. Weird.

My second rounder is 19 but still pretty good. My 1st rounder is 4k and 18 with pitiful OD....that's just terrible luck on my part.

I invested 0 in scouting and came away with 1 great prospect at center. Could this be the prospect that finally switches my training up. Everyone knows that my team is as soft as Big Baby down low.

Well if he wasn't training guards he should be now. Nice player can't ask for anything better then 18 HOF and 6' tall. perfect trainee. as a guard trainer I am salivating on that one.

I got two 6' 2 in guard trainees. One is AS and the other starter. One will be sold in a bit the other has D III starting potential in a season or so. WE will see. third guy trash as expected.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Jealous of you. Nice snag.


I invested 20k for the first half of the season and 40k for the last half (as it became apparent that I'd be starting over) and I got absolutely CRAP in the draft.

3 19 year olds who I don't think I will even be able to sell. The only thing I've got going for me is I might run with a shortened roster next season. I'm off to scout my new series and see how many "tough" teams I'll be facing.

Well, I did land a 19-yr old 6'8" MVP Point Guard that has decent skills, I guess. Can someone informed please evaluate this player for me, and do it honestly.

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


I plan on continuing to train Partridge and train guards so he might be able to train but he's pretty big and might not train all that well.

FYI, got him in Round 2.

Well, if you have a trainee spot and you are going to train guards skills (and you don't have money to buy a decent player) I will keep him otherwise it is not worthy.

I think having this 6'8" guard allows me to be a little flexible.

He'll train shooting pretty fast for having good secondary skills if I train him as a SG. Teddy Titus can shift to PG while Lawrence Coyle shifts to SF while this allows me to move Netos Digkas, a player whom I think I overpaid at the time.

I can train him as a Forward as well by getting his shooting up and working on his inside skills at Forward. He definitely won't be seeing a whole lot of starter minutes for league matchups right now but being 6'8" I can rotate him between the Guard and Forward spots.

I've got another PG that has 6th Man potential and he comes with decent skills to start out with.
