Congratulations, sort of. You've created a world class shooting guard out of a once-in-a-lifetime all-around point guard prospect. Are you going to put his passing and defense to use in training, or are you just content to have another cookie-cutter sniper?

(Don't get me wrong, Joly is one tasty cookie.)

Actually I just changed the training schedule. His handling will be increased from here on. Will train PG only so that will go faster, hopefully

Do you think it would go better with passing rather than handling at this moment in his career?

If it was me, I'd rotate defense and passing, until those skills were close to where his shooting skills are. There would be a few driving and handling pops along the way.

That might mean he never gets trained in shooting again, I realize.

Hmm, passing might make sense.

and if defense, which kind of defense would make most sense for him?

Not a fan of defense, eh? Offense gives you a nice feeling when you look at the boxscore, but you need defense too, especially at the higher levels. You only need to look at our last NT game (1320) to see how exploitable shooters are when their defense hasn't been keeping up.

Anyway, this is the last I have to say about it. I don't want to undermine my own competitive advantage too much.

For Joly, outside only.

How do you train outside defense? I can't seem to find that option in drop down menu
