Young Players/Development
Mon Jan 07, 2008 9:16 am
How does player development work in Live 08? I've heard some people talking about just training the heck out of them with your assistants. Other than that, how much do they grow after each season, on average? Are there any young players I should try to grab before they get really good?

Oh man this is my kind of question, the best way to train like someone elese here told me is to train one player for 4 weeks in offense, defense, and athletics. Try to have an a in all three abilities, and i've found that when i did this the players' overall would change almost every time. Sometimes you have to train the players 2 or 3 times with bad assistants. My team, i'm did a fantasy draft just tonight with the toronto raptors, my starting five are these players.
Andrew bogut-77-haven't trained him yet
Danny granger-79
Adam morrison-75
Brandon roy-75
Reymond felton-77-I trained him twice
----------
Bench players
----------
Gerald green-74
Martell webster-71
Rodney corney-66
Kendrick perkins-66
Daniel gibson-63
Cedrick simmons-62
Andrew bynum-62
----------------------
As you can see some of the starting five have improved a bit, because i trained them for 4 weeks and i maxed out all three abilities. I'm building a team, this team is not bad either so far they're 26-30 and this is all simulation, i didn't play one game or intervene. Those are just a few players in this game with excellent potential, but the rookies i stay away from because most of them decline after a year. One dynasty i have i trained daniel gibson and he's now 72 or 73 and bynum is at least 70 and cedrick simmons is around 68-70 something. These players and several others can improve 3 points a season.
