Take a look on the TL for guys with atrocious FT. I couldn't find one that went 4-4. There are over 1000 and I only looked at about the first 50. My point is that I don't think it has happened in one game. Not that I have ever seen or heard about anyway. Maybe it could happen, but I think if your guy goes 4-4 in the draft page stat line that is an indication that his FT is going to be decent.

heres my best rookie, Im looking for any opinions on where to go from here? for his second season.

Also i want to know how big does Height play for Power forwards and Centers in game?

Nice work so far. I would train jump shot up to mediocre, then shot blocking up to proficient. Then passing up to respectable. Then back to inside skills for the rest of the season.

And height doesn't affect anything during a game. It only affects training. The taller you are, the quicker you will train in inside skills.

Really nice trainee. Some JS will help him, and i dont think that he needs more SB. If you train one on one for forwards you will increase his HA some too.

Height is relative to training speed not to performance. Equally skilled players will produce the same, even if one is 7'5 and the other 5'6

Rage.
zyler I have had enough of your arrogance and I can't take it anymore!

as always you dont know what your talking about.

Get off his back, even Shaq has feelings and I think your just too rude going about it. Yes he can be wrong but you are wrong aswell in lots of subjects aswell.

box score means nothing

Wrong. It's kinda like the DMI, most people are gonna leave it alone but people who have alot of experience in drafts might take this into account.

but by all means ignore me and draft via box scores, especially if your in my league.

Proves arrogance.

shaq you never learn.

Just plain rude.

omg ive been saying that all along i get 1 ball posts,

I gave you a 1 ball.

and its safe to say i know alot more about this game then either of you.

You started playing when? November 09?
You ask so many questions in the help forum I think you haven't learnt enough yet to say this.

an atrocious foul shooter can still hit 4 from 4

My player (9469585) has 1FT go look at his stats.

I think you can sit down and be quiet now

While I do agree with the others that mentioned training JS I would forgo that for now, while he is still young I would maximize his inside skills since he is only 6'9. You will sprinkle in 1v1 periodically which will help his JS, but I think what is going to make him dominant is getting the big man skills up 2 levels each next season at least then work from there.

Judging by the quality of your team I'd say no.

fine i give up trying to help people, i was taught by one of the best australian managers that payed this game, ill stick by what i was taught.

I know I'll regret getting involved in this but ............
Don't be such an arrogant pr!ck Zyler. Trying to help is good but seriously, I just read thru some of your comments to few of the other lads and cringed at the fact you are an Aussie. Pull your head in.
I know bugger all about this game, but I do know that box scores give you a reasonable indication about secondary skills for players i.e. 5 star centre with 6 assists = average / respectable for inside skills plus bonus of nice passing coz it don't count in their salary. 5 star SG or SF with 6 assists = average / respectable JS JR plus bonus of nice passing coz it don't count in their salary. 5 star PG with 4 blocks = average / respectable H, P, OD plus bonus of ID/SB coz it don't count in their salary.
BOX SCORE DOES MEAN SOMETHING. Not much, but only a proper goose would completely discount certain relavent information.
My two bobs worth. Please refrain from making Aussies look like a pack of know-all w@nkers from now on.

PS. I've had a few atrocious FT shooters and NEVER have they hit anywhere near 4/4.
I would bet my house on the fact that any draftee that's hit 4/4 is not atrocious.

After that unfortunate ugliness and back on topic, here is my rook.

the only person i was being arrogant towards was shaq and that because in so many past threads he has given out so much wrong information and t seems the only way to get through to him is to be like that.

as for the rest of what you said about me if thats how you feel i cant do anything about it, i am who i am and i voice my thoughts the way i do personally ive read almost every thread in these forums, i now know so much about this game that im currently developing a team scouter program as well as a training program.

im sorry if i seem like a prick to you, or anyone else im just trying to make sure people get the correct information.

which is that the box scores are highly unreliable , i read this in many threads in the past and have seen my self to be true.

once again im sorry if i upset anyone .
