I think the idea is to use the game to simulate the league games, not to see who's better at twitching the joystick. The commissioner would only set the lineups and substitutions and let the game play against itself.

Hey, if you want to get a sim going, how about we sign up @ XO Hoops? It's by far the best sim and it uses the actual players stats rather than ratings. It's suppose to be going public within a month or two and I know the owner. I'm sure I could talk to him about helping us set up the league with the players we take.
A well run sim takes a fair amount of customizing of the game settings. As an example, chemistry ratings are very important to winning in the sim and they need to accurately reflect who the coach of the team is, playing time, personalities and how often trades are made. Also need to adjust rating if players are played out of position. It takes a lot of work to run one properly.

Like 6th man, bench warmer, starter etc.

There are tons of aspects that go to each part, like DREB%, BLK%, STL%, Foul%, etc. It's more advance than all these sims that have ratings because it uses actual stats from players, and when you have too much usage (aka ballhandlers), it increases the teams' shooting percentage but it also increases turnovers. Trust me though, I've been in sims b4, and they have nothing on XO Hoops. I've been a beta tester for this site for 3 years now with Shapecity & Run BJM, and we tried to get a beta league @ old JBB but it didn't work cuz the owner went out of the country.
