I am setting up my practice plan for a new team, and I am trying to remember what the minutes cutoff was for keeping a rating at its current level. The numbers I seem to recall are 7 minutes, except for Perimeter and Low Post which only require 4 minutes. Could someone please confirm these numbers, or let me know if I am wrong? Thanks.

Once they reach their full potential you can safely lower the minutes to zero, they shouldn't drop at all, maybe -1 but just put some more minutes back in to get it back up.

3 is generally enough to maintain LOW and PER

rowle, I am referring to just maintaining a rating that hasn't reached its full potential. I have several guys with ratings that I consider good enough, e.g. an 81 Perimeter, but they are very lacking in other areas, e.g. 20 in defense. I would like to just maintain the "good enough" areas, that way I have enough extra minutes to put into the categories that really need improvement.

I've always used 7 and 3 (LP/Per) and had no problems.
