Although i red the game manual, I did not completely understand the training system:

How can I choose how many minutes every player will get?
If I want to train PF's only,can i do that without training the C's?


Also,i got in the draft an 18 years old PF with 9 potential:

Jump Shot: respectable Jump Range: pitiful
Outside Def.: mediocre Handling: mediocre
Driving: atrocious Passing: average
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: average Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: inept

What should i train him?Also because i dont have a good coach someone advised me to sell him-should i do that?

Sorry for all the questions-please help me.

Yes train him. And could you post his height? If you want to train him, make sure that you have an at least level 4 trainer. They are very cheap.

You can't choose how many minutes a player gets in general. However, you can estimate how many minutes a player will get per game. Basically, a starter gets between 30 and 40 minutes, and a backup 8-18 minutes accordingly. If you want to get a trainee 48 full minutes, either play him in two games a week as a starter, or make sure you have only 9 (for single-position training) or 8 (for double-position training) players in your active roster. Put your trainee not only as a starter, but also as backup and reserve at his training position. If he doesn't get injured or fouled out, he'll get his 48 minutes.

If you want to train PFs, you have to play them on the C position for most training purposes.

This guy should get Inside defense and rebounding for now. Try to get him to triple proficient at the end of the season in ID, IS and Rebounding. Then you can either go on pushing his inside skills, or switch to training forwards in Jump Shot and 1 on 1.

Thank you for your help(his height: 6'8" / 203 cm)

Sorry but I'm new and I'm still kind of confused like starting a new thread, I don't see what to click but anyway could someone tell me what experience means when it comes to a player, obviously I know what the definition of it is but what does it effect and is it worth using my free "pop" in attributes on it.

What free pop are you talking about? The April Fool's Day joke?

experience means better decision-making by a player. An experienced player is much less prone to stupid mistakes.

The free pop was an april fools joke.

If you want to make him a small forward,
I would do something like this.

2 weeks of ID
2 weeks of OD
2 weeks of IS
1 week of Rebounding
2 weeks of One on one.
2 weeks of passing
Over and over again.

If you want a PF,

Just do this swich rebounding IS and ID every week.


I would just do PF though because its easier.
