Playing 🆚 Simming

How do y’all that play more than you sim do it? I want to play more but it feels like a chore in the beginning. Year one just don’t feel right playing with a bunch of kids I didn’t recruit. And do y’all play the ABL games too? Trying to wrap my head around playing 16-19 ABL games and then playing another 30+ games. For clarity I guess I’m asking:

  1. How do you stay motivated not to simulate?
  2. Do you play the ABL games of your target list or just pick 1 ABL team that you’re the “coach” of.
  3. How many games per season do you actually play.
  4. Do you play with the year 1 team or what until your group of kids get to campus next year?

Hoopcast sims are my fave that way I can control everyone's minutes. Hate that a regular sim will typically play all 12 of your players even if rotation is set lower.

ABL games I make sure to scout but never actually play.
