I actually agree with Lemon here. I don't think training is under powered and really enjoy that aspect of the game, even though it is pretty slow. (I've had my main trainee for almost 3 seasons and 8 or so months is a pretty long time in real life

But one thing training is not is flexible. Its very difficult to train a team to play how you want it to, since you can only really focus on one or two positions at a time and one or two skills a week. I don't really mind it but it is impossible to shape an entire team through through training.

So I think that if training is the focus going forward you need to allow people to train different kind of players simultaneously and you need to make it easier/more rewarding to train lower potential players, because, even if that's a misconception, lower potential players don't get enough love.


Tbh. potential less than All-Star is utter trash and its not worthwhile training those guys (one could make an argument for "Star"-SFs...). To me low-potential players are just junk data and could be removed from the game.

yeah I mean Star-Perennial All Star when I talk about 'lower' potential. I agree that starter is already quite low potential even for D4 teams. Perhaps make the difference a bit smaller between categories, in particular at lower levels?

Besides there are also illogical things like 19yo Announcers with high TSP who are born way beyond their cap limit.

Too logical.

Better that they continue to limit your ability to train to just one kind of player and to just one kind of skill, because that's how real basketball teams work, eh? No coach in his right mind would consider training all his players in the skills that they need.

(Sarcasm font off).

Now, there has been an interesting proposition around training this week in the Suggestions forum, it would have been nice to see you give your insight on it.

Sure ... which thread are you referring to?

I think star potential players are a bit underrated. I've trained a PF/C close to his cap (21038334) and he went for 396k. He is retired now, but IIRC he was good enough to play in D3 USA. I also trained this SG, (17743107) and he went for 400k. He is starter potential, but that's an argument for another day.

GM-hrudey is another manager that has utilized star potential players well. Before he started tanking, he had 2-3 star potential guys who contributed to his rise from D4 up to D2.

It is your opinion, however, and I respect that.
