I guess it depends on what he is planning for him. If he is planning on keeping him then don't train rebounding, but if he is planning on training for a season and then selling then I think training 1 pop in rebounding would be quick and not take much of the salary cap and add a lot of value to the player when listed on the TL.

Plus I like players that can rebound personally, but I understand where you are coming from, and I agree that just focusing on guard skills is probably the way to go and would let you get the most out of the star potential.

If he had better potential I probably would say for him to go for it. He is kinda short anyway. He is in the V and a player with star potential at his cap will be very useful for him in the next divisions.

He is a realy solid inside center, but his secondaries are a bit of a drag. If you could spend a season of training secondaries he would be pretty solid, and his salary would not get out of hand.

I have a player that is very similar to this, indeed alot of fun. I will likely turn mine into a PF that has the ability to dominate games from either the inside or outside. You clearly know what you are doing and seem to have a long term plan that makes perfect sense, no need to give you any advice :)

I think you should work on his outside defense and and inscrease that to strong, because since i think his outside defense can increase, do you always play him at center?

I would encourage you to train strictly guard skills(JS,JR,OD,Handling,Driving, and Passing) It is best to train these in one position training. There is alot of good info in the FAQ thread otherwise feel free to shoot me a PM I will help if I can.

That player is very trainable and could/should be the focus of your team. It may take a few seasons but in time he could be brilliant.

but in this current market with all prices so cheap training isn't really worth it at the moment.

I think that your logic is fundamentally flawed. Even if you assume that there is no value in selling trainees right now it would still be a leap to assume that there isn't significant value in training players right now. An 18 year old trainee won't be ready for the transfer list for 2-4 seasons and in that time frame there's no reason to assume that the market won't pick up before then.

Deciding not to train for a third of a season (even if it's just training and flipping) seems like a really questionable financial decision and I don't really understand the logic at all.
