Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Virginia | Best D team in country(packline), you cant win agnst their pace and they force their pace on you. may struggle with press teams alla WVU. |
2 | Villanova | Efficient offense, fundamentally sound, wish their defense was as good as 2016. tough guards, complete offensive team, can play various ways |
3 | Xavier | really good offensively, can score multiple ways, legit guard, wish they were tougher defensively. |
4 | Michigan State | I thought they would have had a better performance this season overall, but they still performed. super balanced with a STUD on their team |
5 | Duke | LENGHTY team i like their ZONE, can score with anybody in the country, as has been duek teams of last couple seasons can lose focus instretc |
6 | Kansas | Selfs DHO motion is 180 from his H-L but they are underrated off imo. devonte is legit. can defend in stretches too |
7 | Purdue | motion O team, if they hit 3s they can make afinal 4 if they cant, they have to rely on their def and rebounding |
8 | Michigan | LOVE the 2 guard O, really like the pace they play, atheltic guards which makes their d the best its been in awhile. tough to play at mi pac |
9 | Cincinnati | Cronins team alwyas defend and play super hard, offensively they got some more versatility than in other years, well see if it helps |
10 | North Carolina | can absolutely run on anyone in the tourney, great transiiton O team and reb team,. can they play in grind it out games in march |
11 | Texas Tech | pure old school motion O, streakky from perimeter can take some inefficient shots, their defense at times this year is NO JOKE, can switch |
12 | West Virginia | kinda same as TTU but with their motion sets and off spacing at times can still leave them indrought in the hc, good def, press is good |
13 | Gonzaga | not as high as some, i think they are slightly overrated due to schedule. they do have some versatility on O and a solid E8 worhty def |
14 | Arizona | if they were locked in on the def end as in years past, HOLYYY. still a very good balanced team, good on O, have playmakers. can make a run |
15 | Kentucky | Cal always sacks wins early to play slower than they should to prepare for march. inconsistent team shooting but really good d |
16 | Tennessee | wish they were more poised down the strtch in their sec tourney game, v good defensive team, balanced defensively, need to run more |
17 | Ohio State | wish they were a bit more spry in their halfcourt, still run some good hc sets, if they can stay confident they will b dngerous |
18 | Auburn | i dont care if they are short if they play with heart wich AU has, sucks with the injuries but still a good team. need to be intense def |
19 | Houston | underrated guard play, sampson can coach, not an easy out |
20 | Clemson | sucks with injuries, can they get their grit defensively and hold for an entire week |
21 | Wichita State | should play more zone, very suscpetible this team but funamentally sound and well coached, shamet is a stud, a tough out for anyone |
22 | Nevada | might be overratign them, they can score they got players with some versatility on O.. i think poor defensively in a lot of stretches |
23 | TCU | surrpised a dixon team isnt consistently focused on the def end, their motion is no slouch, got guards that can get hott |
24 | Florida State | up and down team, if they show up, their length and versitlity defesnively can get punish. need to get out in transition more, |
25 | Kansas State | webber can COACH. very balanced offensive and defensive team, wouldn't sleep on them. have shown toughness |
