Holger was huge in our debut.

He's an agressive attacker and defender but also shoots the 3 while look to distribute.

LOL I am doing the same thing right now. The endurance training looks like its going to be a pain though. i think once you get around 17 or 18 it requires about 8 hours of training. And you still have to use the rest of your points on other things.

We still need two players. Jes12, YDM, Sosa, everyone else I didn't name, cmon and join as soon as possible.

It would be cool to get other boards to join as well including the db.com board and other teams on this board and challenge them the rest of the summer.

Endurance Train as the last thing you do that day since it takes the longest.

queue up everything else first (shooting, rebounding, etc.)
and save training credit(s) for endurance
then when you're leaving work at 5p train in endurance
that way you're using the shorter training periods to your advantage of when you can passively still train
but you don't need to be there during the endurance training
and games aren't until 4AM so unless it takes you over 11 hours to endurance train you'll be finished before the game...

I'm sure you guys aren't retards like me but i will warn you guys not to do the accelerated training if you don't have to. It costs three credits for only one point.

Captain Obvious,
is the premium account worth it?
I know it is "only" $5 per month, but do you get anything worthwhile?
I saw where you have to buy player credits separately...

Why do you think i have premium? I have not! Im cheap lol

Premium has some upside, the biggest thing IMO is that you can queue up to 5 items and all cost the time at the moment you queue them.
I mean, 5 times endurance take 5 hours with premium, for free it takes 2*1hour+2*2hour+3hour.
=> you max out on endurance much much faster and can train the other skills much earlier and higher
That is big as a season is only 1 1/2 months long before players get reset

Maybe i do it if we all stay for the next season, i have some online money on pokersites

I'm going to be training dunking, speed, and passing to create a drive and dish PF. Training credits are allocated at 10pm Dallas time I believe. I set up endurance training before I go to bed and again when I leave for work (no internet there).
Its also worth noting that we have our own team board on the forum viewable only by us.

edit: I miss read that its 11pm Dallas time. I also went for the premium account. I'll let you know if its worthwhile.

I had also set my guy to not take 3's, shoot all of the time...since at the moment he is a terrible passer, attack the basket all the time....so he can shoot from closer in, crash the boards and a little more chance taking on D but not much.

I have trained my FT shooting some since it sucked. Dunking, Rebounding and Shot Blocking were my highest ranks already.
