Well when i still had a trainer, I always trained em for two positions, and stayed with that for three to five weeks, before changing it up. I would try to train the whole team too, not just a few players. Although that didn't always happen.

My starting 5 besides my C can play all positions. Khan is half way there, but his progress has slowed down, obviously without a trainer.
To answer your other question, we would sell em if we were deep in that position (3 max per position) just incase of an injury.

This season for us, its just throwing backups in, and hoping they have a good game, because there's no training going on, besides, stigma, and free throw shooting, so there's no chance for them to improve.

Romeu hasn't been the same player for us, only scoring 13 total points in two games i think. And he's takens less shots, in a season we need him to shoot more.
Its been a tough start to the season, were lucky to be 1-1. It's early tho, no need to panic yet. We got off to a slow start last season too. Were not a good, early season team, but we seem to turn things around late in the season, for whatever reason

>>> I train Small Forwards... it is a long process, especially trying to plan training around winning games... I have 2 trainees that I train 1 position 95% of the time, rotating the training positions each week to create a balance of outside and inside skills... a lot of stressful work but fun at the same time....

Nice to see Miami, still active.
Last time i checked they haven't been active since 12/31/17 so i was thinking they were about to go bot.
Plus, their in the mix. Makes things more interesting and also alot more fun, when they're more than 4 teams in the mix per division. Especially during a 22 game season and the only thing your playing for is, the seed you get.
So, congrats to Miami for sticking it out, we need more coaches like him.

Where were win NOT one, not two,not three, not four, not five championships....(puts hand over mic. and whispers to Wade..."Psh, the second we lose, in the finals to SA, i'm bailing and taken my ass back home to Cleveland.

Jump ahead years later: Wade Joins James in Cleveland, and sadly this story ends the same way it did in Miami. Can Wade and James turn around their unfortunate luck and become NBA champions once more???

Yeah, that is very strange. I've never seen that before, and I've been playing this game since season 30, so like what, 3 years maybe

Interesting game for me this week against FWF. With how close the Bloomington/Miami game was, this next one should put the strength of the conferences into perspective. Although, Cyborgs is still in a tier of his own ATM.

Here are my all-star predictions.

All-Star Predictions

Great 8

PG: D. Moody, M. Tompkins
SG: J. Hagen, R. Kline (possibly Z. Baird)
SF: G. Bellamy, H. Nomme
PF: T. Baji, A. Hochstattler (not sure who's starting)
C: L. Raith, H. Barnett (possibly O. Marti, W. Rolen)

Big 8

PG: T. Huma, R. Figueiredo
SG: J. Bravo, S. Malaki (possibly E. Schumacher)
SF: H. Kok Choon, E. Pusticki ( E. Havermann and P. Rainey are strong contenders for backup. This spot is hardest to predict)
PF: D. Bauer, L. Quick (possibly H. Blount, but let's be real. Lee " Motha Effin" Quick is lowkey best player of all time. #LetLeeLoose)
C: C. Friedman, H. Gooden (not sure who's starting)

I didn't even know we played you guys this week. I was like no, we play New York. But then i was like he said "THIS week" lol. I assume you don't have "anybody" this week, and is looking ahead.
It wouldn't surprise me, if we go on a losing streak these next few games, since we went all in on Cyborg's. I was thinking of "laying down" for that one, but as we all know now i thought what the heck.
And we have good teams coming up starting with new York. We may not be at our best. But I'm not honestly concerned, i mean it's save to say were gunna be in the playoffs this season, and we've proven that we can win on the road. So, for us, we just wanna improve our bench players, and pray next season we dont have another super team in this league. Not saying its a "Dunk" that we'd win the entire league, but i think we could give any team a run for the cup.
Im sure other coach's here feel the same way as will.

Anyways, Eike normally doesn't make the allstar game, he usually gets over looked. He is actually the best all around player on my team, does the dirty work. Just doesn't get rewarded for it, league wise lol.
But like you said, the SF position is deep so.
And i realized you didn't have Albert "The monster rebounder" in the allstar game for C's. He has made at least the last 3 in a row i wanna say. How could you leave someone like that off your list lol. 11 points a game, 3 assist and 12 rebounds

>>> Your team actually played well against the Cyborgs... your PG scored 40 points against one of my better players and if you look at your team ratings most were in the double figures... as for the Cyborgs being a Super Team that might have been correct at the beginning of the season but as the weeks go bye I am paying these high salaries for players that their skills are dropping every week, and my 2 trainees are training slower than I like... If you look at the League Leaders Board the Cyborgs only have 1 player listed in the 3 area's ... I think right now the Cyborgs balance is the key to us winning games. If however my players skills keep dropping at this level by the end of the season and into the playoffs it could be any teams chance to win the League Title... The Cyborgs Management Team might be making some changes in the near future to the roster and bring in more youth for the playoff run..

We lost by 34 points!! That ain't ever good lol.
Plus our team rating, that all came in "garbage" time.
And we gave your guys all we had! And you still kicked our ass all over the court!
As for the leaderboards go, your team is playing alot of blow out games, there for your starter's aren't playing the 4th quater. So, you SHOULD have your player's in the allstar game, being as dominate as you're, shouldn't hurt your team, or play against your players. But were see i guess.
Even with their skill's dropping at a rappid pace, your team is elite, and i don't see that changing or hurting your 99.999 % chance to win this league.
You've earned where you're, i mean to be able to have a team with high salaries like that. You must of put in alot of work to get there. Now you might wanna change your roster up for the elite teams your face next season, but im sure you're aware of that. You didn't get this far because you got attached to your player's, you got this far because you know when it's time to cut ties.

>>>> Thanks for the Kudos on my team, I can definitely see this league being brutal in about 2 seasons from now, a lot of young developing talent on quite a few teams here is going to make it difficult for any team being dominant...It will all come down to Coaching, training and roster development and which ever team stays healthier as the playoffs approach....
