Don't forget that unbalanced players will train slower,


My experience is that this slow-down is much less noticeable than the cap slow-down. There is a player on my U21 with inept SB, and I hardly noticed any slow-down in his training so far.

But I guess it really depends on your "cap" definition.

capped out at a lower salary level than at least one player with proficient SB (55 vs 70-80), But more on this when the data is up for scrutiny.


This also kind of goes with my theory, by the way. SB counts a good portion towards the salary for a C but a working theory that I have is that it counts very little to potential capping. I also suspect that rebounding counts more for potential capping than it does for salary... I have very small amounts of data to know for sure, though.

Is this a player you trained or someone you pulled off the transfer list? In my opinion, he was a player trained long after he hit the cap (probably somewhere around 3x tremendous). His owner then spent a lot of effort to give him +1 inside shot and +3 rebounding, it probably took close to 2 seasons for those last 4 pops.

my player's potential is 'allstar' and his salary already went above the 43-65k category at 80k now.
does that means he's maxed out already?

Yes, but it will be useful if you tell us how long did he get for those 2 extra pop ups from 65-80k? I have 1 C that 1 one pop up from the 65k. Also it will be nice if you chose to train him more, to tell us how much time will need for an other pop up
