For weekdays, it'll always be around 530pm - 930pm pst. If that changes for some reason, I'll let you guys know.

For weekends, it's unpredictable. But generally Saturday I can probably do it in the morning / afternoon. And Sundays, probably in the evening.

I'll probably do 5 day sims, unless I miss a day, then I'll do 10.

If something changes I'll try to post and let you guys know though.

You're team can't score because you have no scorers. You have 4 scoring (inside and outside) categories with B- or higher. That might be the worst in the league. And you're bad at rebounding because your starting PF has C rebounding and SF has C- rebounding. Sure the good defense helps, but if you don't have anyone who can score, then it won't help your offense.

Everything matters in the end, but there's little things that FBB favors then others. For example, having good shot blockers is a big boost for trying to have a well rounded team.
Yeah I'm definitely not a very good offensive team. I should have clarified better though, I was wondering about my defensive PPG and why it was so bad even with good defensive statistics and individual player ratings.
You guys are forcing lots of turnovers, but you are getting out rebounded 50-43. But beyond that, teams are shooting VERY high FG and 3point percentages on you. Not exactly sure why.

You said that players drafted within the first 5 rounds have automatic bird years right?

This is correct. By the time they expire, they should all have at least 3 bird years. If not, let me know.

General Discussion is already a nested forum, so having a sims subforum would be an additional level. If people are fine with that then sure. Personally, I find it easier just to post each sim thread in the general discussion area (as opposed to a subforum).

Yes, as long as the 115% trade rule is true.

Yes. Be sure to be specific however. If you say 1995 top 10 protected pick, it is assumed it's only protected for one year. So make sure it says top 10 protected forever, or top 10 in 95, top 8 in 96, top 3 in 97 etc.

Correct. Too many people were complaining about it (which is understandable since this is a Ducks forum). I apologize for the convenience.
