Inside defense strong
Shot blocking respectable-pop
Free throw inept

What do you think i should train? So far i've been working on his inside defense. Eventually i want him to be a good passer, at least average or respectable. The pop in shot blocking was after training in inside defense for bowie.

Around 1 pop/week(with both my trainees together) OD with single training and level 6 trainer.

Can't you just post his skills right?

I train guards, so my advice may not be the best, but this is what I would do:

Options for training:
1-pos at C:
ID (also trains IS and SB)
IS (also trains ID and JS)
1-pos at PG:
PS (also trains HN and DV)
2-pos at C/PF:
RB (also trains ID and IS)
2-pos at SF/PF:
One-on-One (trains DV, HN, IS, JS)
JS (also trains JR and IS)

You could also 1-pos train SB and HN, but I wouldnt bother, because 1) I dont believe SB has a great impact; the SB pops you get from training ID should be enough. 2) Training PS and 1-1 also trains HN, but training HN doesnt train PS.

I recommend training 1-pos first. Once you get more trainees, you can switch to 2-pos training.
So train 1-pos ID and IS. When you get more trainees, be sure to rotate in RB, along with 1-1 or JS.
PS will be hard to train, because you will need to make a sacrifice. Either you play your trainee in a game with his 3 atrocious guard skills (which will probably result in a loss), or you play him 48 minutes in a scrimmage, giving him less playing time in league games. (If you dont mind sacrificing the complete training of your other trainees, you could also play him at PG for a portion of each game, but this becomes difficult to manage.)

Once your main trainee gets a pop in the skill you are training, switch the training; balanced training is faster.

Thanks for the advice.
