I'm a bit noob too, and so u should wait for more answers...

1- Yes... Buy the best trainer u can get ur hands on :D

2-It depends on many things... if u think u'll do well and be at the top of your league when the season is over then 10000 is enough... if otherwise u think u'll be at the bottom positions then the draft can be a good investment spend 20000...
Nevertheless is possible u spend 40000 and have a lousy draft... so its ur choice... lol

3- U should focus on one position but not in one skill...in my opinion max age is 23/24 but is advisable to have 18/19/20 year olds in training positions... about potential, potential doesn't influence the speed of the training process (size does) but acts as a soft cap... as far as I know noone has reached this cap with superstar rating, so its a bit fuzzy to help u there... of course, high potencial players are more expensive when selling... :D

4-Every training is good... if u like u can train low men (PG and SG and even SF) and make a good profit and a good team with it...

5- U must have missed the draft yes... :(
That 22 yo is good for the position and u can start by training him this season, but u should buy some 18/19yo to train too...
u can train up to 3 players in one position or 6 in 2 positions(each player has to play 48mins in training positions in 1 week)... For instance at the end of the season u can sell ur 22yo player and choose what to do with the money for next season... ;)

6- I use 3 players for each position, but is commonly said that 12 players are enough... i usually try to sell a lousy player for 1000 and if noone buys I fire him... There is no problem because u don't pay anything to put a player on sale ;)

Hope that helps... but then again u should wait for more experienced answers :D

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond so thoroughly!

I guess I'll start by hiring that manager now then.

As my team is completely new, and I'm not in the lowest division, I imagine I will do quite poorly this year so I'll put as much as I can afford into scouting (although I don't really know what that is yet!).

May I ask what you mean by one position, but not one skill? Do you mean that I instead of just training my center in inside shooting for an entire season, I should for example train him in inside scoring for a few weeks, then change to rebounding for a few, inside defense for a few, etc?

Thanks again!

That's exactly what I wanted to say... In BB multiskill is a reality... for center u need inside shot, inside defense, rebounds and shotblock... u should rotate all the trainings to have the best player possible in that position...
u should read these threads
