6 days a week training isnt over training if u follow the 3-1 week method. this method is very effective and is used by one of the most successful program in terms of gains, P90X. Basically your body can handle up to 3 weeks of intense training and require 1 week off. during that week u can still do low intensity work outs but the importnat thing to remember is that u must do at least 3 days of stretching on the fourth week.
Also, it depends onwhat u mean by "training." do u mean cardio? or 6 days of weights? or do u mean a combination of both? for cardio, 6 weeks a day is okay and isnt considered over training. for weights, it is. the maximum amount of days for weights is 4 days a week doing a split training methods. meaning u can do upperbody on monday, lower body on tuesday, take a 2 day break. then upperbody on friday, and lower body on saturday. that is the best way to train because it enables your body to get plenty of rest in between workouts. if you are dong a combination of both, which is what you are doing i am guessing, 6 days of training might be a little intense but also could be okay depending on your stamia and age. this is more of a personal question because only you can know whether you are over training or not.
for a combination of cardio (basketball training) and weights. for my school, bball trainign is pretty intense so i suggest u do no cardio whenever you have school practice or training. u should always make sure u have at least 1 day of rest in between weights workouts. cardio and plyometric based exercises you should get at least 2 days. during off seasons u can easily have 6 days trainign a week, which is what i am doing. i will give u a rough look at my schedule: this works very good for me and i take a full week off from weights on my fourth week.
Monday: 30min VJB/1 hour basketball workout
Tuesday: p90X [upperbody workout]
Wednsday: 1 hour basketball workout
Thursday: 30min VJB/1 hour basketball workout

Monday: School training/VJB
Tuesday P90X
Wednsday: OFF
Thursday: School training/VJB
Friday: OFF
Saturday: P90X/1 hour basketball workout

During normal bball season i got practice in morning and after school so i do almost no other weight training or its way too much for my body.
Hope this helps
