The preview is completed with 110 teams featured. There will
likely be mistakes, typos, and all sorts of issues. If you see
a glaring one let me know. Some of the previews will seem a
bit redundant, but it is because basketball is basketball and
there are only so many ways you can slice the bread.
Some coaches send me more information than others. So some teams
get more written about them in this preview.
It has been a long couple of weeks but it is something I enjoy
doing.
I hope you enjoy reading this preview.
Now for the real fun.
