What do you guys think about this guy?

http://i.imgur.com/pTdpu4E.png

This is the first season where my training regime is going to be focused on him. Up until this season, he was getting trained with some guards, which is why he has such good passing. But I'm determined to play him at SF because I think his skillset is very promising for the position, except for the gaping hole at Inside Shot. Any advice on where I should start?

OD, then IS. Ideally you'd want 14 OD I think, but that may be tough now. 12-13 would be good.

Then pound IS as much as you can. Then I'd probably cap him by doing more JS, or RB.

I believe that a small forward should be versatile. The ideal SF should be able to play all positions at both ends of the floor. Maybe he won't have the right height to play C, but that doesn't mean that he shouldn't be able to play C, or PG for that matter. I won't suggest any skill sets because I'm too new to the game, and I'll leave you to your own definition of versatile.

Great player. I especially like you got ID out of the way.

I would train 1 on 1 for guards until HA reaches 13 and then OD to 17. You can always train passing later as it's very fast training and you will have a nice elastic effect set up. Even at 26 years PA will increase every two weeks, so no pressure. OD however is a very slow training, especially with negative elastic effect, so I'd advise to train OD before PA.

Upside to training PA now though is your team will benefit from it later when you train OD. Training OD on players with lousy passing can be quite detrimental to your team.

This is my SF who is still training. I'm planning for pops in IS (3), ID (1), JS (2) and RB (1), HA (1) and DR (1). 9 pops in next two seasons - not easy, but could make it, especially because he has high sublevels in IS, JS, HA and DR. I wanted to train OD or PA some more, but since he fits in PG formula that would make him reach his potential too quickly.

thanks, yeah that is my debate, i am thinking of focusing on training this season so OD might be a goer first. I have another 18y.o H.O.F big guy who will benefit from OD and Passing.

Whoa, got a real player here. Respectable in HA, PA and OD? Great trainee.

We have a 19y old with similar entry skills like this training for NT (HA and OD started at 6). First two seasons he is doing nothing else but 1 on 1 and OD, until OD gets to 12. Only then he starts with inside skills. I think this is the best course to go with all these crazy multiskill PFs populating best NTs. If some outside tactic like Motion emerges in a few seasons, we will also be set.

yeah i really like him, I paid a massive amount, way too much but really wanted to train someone from scratch.

I want passing and OD at 10-12 then hit inside skills.

If only he had JR also, he'd be even more perfect. But training those kinds of players is definitely fun!
