ah okay. So if you had to guess, what range would JR 1 be? You said IS is 3-4 feet and in. So would the Atrocious JR be closer to the basket? If so, doesn't that mean that 13 IS and 1 JS is essentially the same as 10 IS and 4 JR (when considering shots made in the 3-4 feet distance). What I'm trying to say is that if I have 6 IS, and trained JS up to 8, would that increase my IS percentage even though it doesn't increase the actual skill value that much?

I agree that JS is somewhat important for a big man, and JR is not. The plan is for him to take all of his shots from within 10 feet of the basket, for that no JR is needed.

OK, here's an update on my rookie from earlier in the thread:

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

Yes, I know that's only like five bumps in 10 weeks. I only recently figured out this whole training thing.

I can't decide which way to leap with this guy. I don't like him at SG due to pitiful passing, and I really don't like him at PF because of the awful rebounding. I'm leaning towards keeping him at SF despite his flaws; his profile is very similar to my 35 year old starting SF, who's been adequate. I'm hoping to get a SG in the draft, and train them in tandem.

Nice, how long have you been training him? 1 position or 2?

I'd try and get his shot blocking up to proficient before training the other 3 main skills so that it doesn't slow down training too much.

this season, i've tried my best to get 1 position training, but rebounding takes 2 position. so occasionally its not opossible

I didn't want to train shot blocking, because i find inside defense much more useful, and this is the only season im training this guy, unless i found another rookie center on the TL who's worth training, but basically after this season my focus is off of him.

ah okay, I was just saying that if you were going to train him for a long time, training slows down if your skills are too uneven (eg. IS = 14 and ID = 10). But nice work so far!
