Just for curiosity, who are your bigs that you are training? Looking at your team now, your two main bigs are 31 and 29 years old respectively.

No thats not it at all. I just find it funny that some managers have a pretty sweet luxury box seat just buy joining up early. Pretty much just doing the same thing every season without any big risks or anything like that and can safely stay in the top division. Not meant against anyone in particular so do not se it as anything directed towards you. May have wrote it a bit wrong so it could be miss interpreted but thats what happens when you write in a language that is not your native language.
So lets put that aside and focus on the actual topic instead shall we =)
I strongly believe in any secondary skill being useful and im currently training bigs with PA. They are at 8 now but im going for 10 in the long run.
I seen lots of games where the C gets a lot of AST with something like you had on your guys in PA. So i figured more cant hurt!(duh!)
Aint got any big or small research to back it up on or anything like that so i wont even try to go and say i actually know anything about it yet.
Moving the ball well is the key to scoring easy points though and if all players can do it you sure should be rewarded well i guess.
My view on the potential/salary part of PA is that since it is a pain to train they at least cut down on the impact it has on potential so it should be worth training it. I somewhat see that same thing with SB even though to many it is the most expensive skill in BB.
Some skills sure are more useful at some positions but i dont think there is a single skill in this game that a player doesnt benefit from having at least above 5-6 in.
But then there is a part where some skills cost and if you got an expensive guy you may need to cut down on some skills for the gain of other. But thats probably way off topic so.

Not sure what has you so upset, he was just asking a question to generate discussion... and it seems you're missing the point of the original post, what I got out of it was exactly the thing you're dismissing. Personally, I agree that I like to have ~8-10 passing if I'm training, and ~6-8 if I'm looking on the TL (the demand seems pretty high and I think their costs seem disproprotionately higher). Passing is a way to increase offensive production and possession without the added salary of an Inside Shot or Rebounding.

nice centers, personally i train passing big mans too, one of them has already 11 pasing:D

(http://www.buzzerbeater.com/player/24085123/overview.aspx)

And averages like 3.7 assits per game in div 3 isnt so bad even if i am tanking this one. I like playing patient with him playing at sg or sf at offence and center at defence. while my natural pg can play offensively at center and defend his sg pozition:D seems kinda efficient. and after some seasons training it should become my most dominant and crucial tactic. planing to train js, passing, driving rebounding and inside def for that one center. so he would be as good offensively as any pg/sg/sf and as good defensively as any pf/c in leaue, with relatively small salary.
