Yeah, those make me sad:(, they need to be updated in my opinion and I've changed the advice I give to all of my own trainers, and hopefully we will see it pay off in a couple of seasons.

One of the players in my Federation was training a big man for a NT. They wanted weekly reports on the progress of the players. One week he sent in a report like this>

Future U21guy ↑popped↑ in Shot Blocking from respectable to strong .


He got back a message like this:

WHAT!!! DO NO EVER TRAIN SB AGAIN IT IS THE MOST USELESS SKILL IN THE GAME!!!!


That was from a NT coach!

Average. Depends on what position. I've put something similar on the up&coming forum.

Defensive PF: 8-10
Attacking PF: 5-7
Defensive C: 9-14
Attacking C: 7-8

Wouldn't be able to do guards as I have never trained them.

I do not think I would react wuite like that, but I somewhat agree with that manager. I agree on not training SB, however I realize it is not useless, just not worth it.

Urban Legend. As shown before, IS, ID and Reb raise the weekly salary more.

And why do NT coaches, especially U21 coaches care about salaries?

Maybe that coach wanted to give an advice on how to avoid creating unsustainable salaries?

Players get MORE expensive and QUICKER if you rotatet IS, Reb., ID instead of IS, Reb, ID, SB.
