[Pre Draft Rankings]
*NOTE- These rankings don't mean too much, it's basically from the outcome of scrimmages and the performances i've seen.
1- Marquette Golden Eagles- Marquette averages more points than any team so far. As a team, they rarely miss un-contested shots. Big man Zim347 gives the Golden Eagles an outrageous rebounding advantage. Their fastbreak has seemed un-stoppable throughout these past weeks. And unless teams can contain PG ADFreBlast from diming, this team will be very difficult to contain.
2- Miami Hurricanes- Miami has been rather inconsistent. Their first scrimmage vs. Gonzaga they were struggling to stop them at all. Gonzaga built up an early 20 point lead. They eventually battled back to win by 3 pts. Their chemistry is a little low but the reason they are still ranked high is they proved later in games they can have a really hot shot, and also play shutdown defense. If their star players dapunisherboss, and kingstan8321 can manage to shoot well all game rather than late in the game, they could be just as deadly as any other team.
3- Gonzaga Bulldogs- Gonzaga, in my mind in the most under-rated team in NCAAB. Coach sidthesniper87 picked up a rather talented squad. They have colinator1999 crashing the boards, and tarheel438 rarely missing shots. Sid is also developing as a effective PG. Then there's Cheezwheel who has shown he can force multiple turnovers per game. Gonzaga's teamwork and chemistry is some of the best in the league. This team has beat Marquette once out of a few times, and given Miami a scare. Besides those elite squads Gonzaga has demolished their other opponents.
4- Kentucky Wildcats- Despite some harsh roster organizing early, Owner Fadedhard has put together a pretty good team. They have good ball movement, but need to stop forcing so many passes. This team has the ability to shoot 3s from anywhere on the court. Lejalajames is great from the corner, and new pickup Lilboychristian shot over 75% in their previous scrimmage. If Kentucky is able to get a legit big man to give them an inside game, they can pose a threat to this league.
5- North Carolina Tarheels- North Carolina has had a lot of struggles lately. Star SF Sounded has been having trouble making shots as he usually does. This team turns the ball over many times a game. Their roster however, is very good. If North Carolina could boost their team chemistry, and their star players (Woodall, sounded) can consistently make shots they would possible be a top 3 team. They have also added an amazing shooter in neonballer8, who rarely misses his 3s. Lastly, their big man and coach, Lowcountrylightning is evolving into a great rebounder.
6- NC State Wolfpack- NC State hasn't really had much in-game action but they have been able to pick up some talented players. Lildeezy500 can shoot the ball from anywhere on the court under any situation. LordUnion will be PGing for this team. He has arguably the best passing in the league, and on occasion can shoot well. If they are able to put all this talent together in the future, they may be an elite team.
7- Kansas Jayhawks- Kansas has a semi-good roster, but has not got any scrimmages, and also has not had many practices. This gives them a large dis-advantage on this hoop. As of now Kansas doesn't threaten any team in this league. If they do get some practices in and become more experienced they may be able to have some success.
8- Wake Forest Demon Deacons- This team has done absolutely nothing to help them get better. They dont practice, they dont get games, and they dont even talk to each other. If Wake Forest wants to do anything in this league they will have to hit the court and start to learn the hoop, build chemistry, practice shooting, etc. |
