We are playing tomorrow? I did not know you moved to Canada. I just hope it is some kind of swap with jbmcrock or oeuftete, as adding a third unbeatable team would not be nice.

Anyhow, although playing my SFs at PG is not the ideal situation, Ngakame and Vacirca do quite well there. The trick will be what I will do with my new trainee (when I pick one up). I just hope to get a lot of easy Cup games this season!

If I see one, I will go after him. But to be honest, I am being pretty picky at the moment. So the player pool I am looking at is pretty small.

We are both playing but of course not versus each other - just saying that following your kind comments I've called time on my 6'10 guy.....

About OD training, I have trained 6'6'' player OD in 2 seasons. In first season I trained OD 7 weeks(48+ min, PG, 21y/o). It took him 3 weeks to pop in OD. In second season I trained OD 4 weeks(3w 48+ min, 1w 39 min, PG, 22y/o) and he popped once in last week.

Yeah but what about his other skills? As stated in the manual, skills pop faster when other skills are high.

"For the other training types, players will improve more quickly not only with additional playing time, but also a more skilled player will improve more quickly. For example, a great inside defender and rebounder will find it easier to improve his shot blocking than a poor inside defender and poor rebounder would. This encourages you to develop players with a combination of skills, but there are many combinations of skills which work well together -- you can develop players who will be a good fit for your team's needs."

So I guess there's no point benchmarking OD training for a whole season to see how fast it will pop, because it will slow down a lot as it gets further away from other guard skills such as handling, JS and passing. If all those skills are of similar level, I'm sure you'd see faster pops.

good points.... forgot about these.... the guy Im talking about is playing catchup with OD vs his other skills so it might be a touch faster I guess but the figures kindly posted can be used as worse case scenarios.

His OD was and is at similar level with other skills, I haven't trained only OD.

In conclusion, which skills should be in short a priority order for you?From your experience, not by the rules.
For ex: 1. js. 2. od etc
