Please keep this to discussing your drafted players.

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score

I thought my draft picks were great as they will definitely be starters for me. However, after seeing some of these guys, I realize mine were mediocre at best. I can't really complain though since I had the second to last pick in the draft and still got 2 great players and 1 solid reserve.

Other than the one good one, the other two were fringe at best, useless at worst. I also did really well w/ the highest salary draftee and the last pick in each round.

vječna dilema, da li je bolje zabiti koš više ili primiti koš manje?

If he was my players (and I wish he was) I would put him as starting SG and set training to Jump Shot on SG only.

After a few pops there I would train handling or start rotating the training through the outside skills.

I did almost that, in the sense that i put both SG and PG as I was training 2 point guards prior to this pick.

I am thinking to buy yet another trainable SG and do the jump shot for the 4 of them, is that a waste?

Actually i just checked and you can't even train SG only, can you? It has to have SG and PG together

Jump Shot trains both and Outside Shooting trains just the SG

EDIT: had it round the wrong way

Should I choose outside shooting? I would really stick for Jump shot. Or they train same skill, you mean?
