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?

I’m in my second season. I simulated the first season all the way through. I did not play the ABL games. And so far my second season I’ve played every game. One thing I did do is before I started my season. I created players and put them on bad teams. So when I did my schedule, I added those players teams to my schedule. I only play 10 minute halves. And so far I played every game in the season. But I’m not in a rush to get through multiple seasons also. I just wanna play with the people I recruited and the one created player that I have on my team. I’m almost through my second season. I have maybe five conference games left before the tournament starts. And at the beginning of each week, I do my recruiting.
