- Werner- Has a nice combination of three point shooting (Pang and Werner) and the best big man in the league (Wirta). Should also be solid defensively with Straw and Buzan’s athleticism and Dingle’s size. The major question mark surrounding this team is how neither Wirta nor Dingle can dunk, despite being able to touch the rim without jumping.
- Saraceno- With the surprise late addition of Jack Allen, Saraceno is poised for another deep playoff run. Keast and Styskal should supply solid wing play. However, Saraceno has yet to win a single game without Nick Freiter.
- Forbes- Once again Team Forbes finds themselves near the top of the Pre-Season Power Rankings and once again they will find themselves near the bottom by the end of the season. Led by the wing play of Billy Mitchell and Quintin’s brother, along with the solid contributions from Hoey and Krikorian, this team should certainly compete. **Beware** of bringing sisters and girlfriends to games as this team has Tim Hilbrunner aka “Mista steal yo girl”.
- Tornaritis- See team name for explanation of rank.
- Dawson- This team has many weapons: Varsity caliber play of Shane Dawson, athleticism of Keenan Kimetto and Pre-Season rookie of the year favorite Mark De Binder. But will they be able to score when Dawson in on the bench? Expect a significant decrease in production if Kimetto loses the mohawk.
- Yanchenko- Led by Pre-Season co-MVP favorites Nick Freiter and Eric Yanchenko, this team combines shut-down defending with excellent coaching. Their only weakness is the suspect commitment to the team from Riley Rainville’s beau.
- Tranfaglia- Has a complement of inside and outside presence with Zach Cotoni, Justin Watt and Jimmy Tranfaglia. With the confusing situation of having only one Poitras, this team could benefit from more headbands and technical fouls.
- Barnes- The St. Pierre duo will certainly have to carry the load for this team. But when they are off the floor, expect scoring to be a struggle.
- Dorff- Led by the lone dunker in the league (or so he says), Dorff will have to rely on Jordan’s athleticism and Jack Wadden’s scoring to compete. This team may struggle though because of their lack of team chemistry.
- Bonnett- The unproven backcourt of Matt Naughton and Kevin Connerty could prove to work well but the uncertainty makes them fall in the rankings. But if this team does win it will have to rely on old man Brendan Meyers showing the young bloods the ropes.
- Kidger- Back to back years Kidger starts at the bottom of the Power Rankings. Despite expecting strong play of Geoff and Carl Zimmon, this team may have difficulties overcoming the technical fouls amassed by Tim Colantuoni and Tyler Poitras.
- Gingras- Coming into the draft with an entire starting line up, this team was limited to begin with. While they may have solid defense led by Jack Battles, their unproven scores may keep their point total low during the year. The only way this team will find success is if Torgerson plays out of his mind.

Tornaritis/Hallock
First off werner as 1 is unnecessarily bold 1 and 2 should be Tornaritis and Dawson followed by dorff having waddens ball handling and shooting with dorffs inside presence then Barnes because of the st Pierre's as last year Andrew was easily the impact player of the year and with the addition of his brother even if they're off the court their time on should give them cushion for when they're off
