Tournament Preview - North Texas

[MeanGreen61]

Preview by Bird of Paradiso (ULL poster)

#5W--NORTH TEXAS MEAN GREEN

Tournament Titles: None

Coach: Johnny Jones (63-77) 5th

Tournament Record: 1-4

STRENGTHS: Very athletic team that goes 11 deep. Multiple scoring threats from the outside and PF Jeffrey Simpson can be tough to deal with inside.

Isaac Hines is a good ball handler. Several players are very good at creating their own shot.

WEAKNESSES: Offense plays way too much one-on-one basketball, making them less effective. This team doesn't play much defense at all....something that has unfortunately been a pattern with the Green. After starting 5-2 in conference play, team lost seven of their last eight.

OUTLOOK: Not good. They have enough weapons to beat you, but you have to be able to guard to win, and this team doesn't guard well. They might win a game, but if UALR gets the 4E seed, the game will feature (?) two teams playing the worst basketball in the league.

Sad but true. We don't guard anyone.

FYI only, Bird of Paradise is the voice of the Cajuns for the radio broadcasts; so he's seen a lot of BB this year. Yesterday he only had east teams posted, so guess I'll have to revisit the belt board.
