How sure are you about that? If they are broadcasting games this season, whoever's in charge of updating their NBA page deserves to be canned:

The NBA sucks. The players dont even try until the playoffs and its marketed along the lines of pro wrestlling.
True hoops fans know its all about the NCAA.

I agree, I barely follow the NBA until after the NCAA tournament. My disinterest now is so bad I'm laying out of fantasy hoops. Also the style isn't that great now IMHO, too much of an indivdual game

Its why football is so great, a 16 week NFL schedule, every game matters, it doesnt drag out the season. Yeah college football needs a playoff but what can beat the atmosphere and the matchups

I agree...


You're both on drugs. The NCAA is better than the NBA like the electric chair is better than a booster shot.

NBA rocks....

Considering i don't come from North America I couldn't give two tosses about NCAA basketball.....i can understand your loyalties to your school but to say that NCAA is better than NBA is pretty inacurate

Im not talking about the skill level of the players. Obviously the NBA is higher. Im not even talking about the school rivalries, although that is cool.
Night to night NCAA basketball is more exciting and interesting to watch than the NBA. Big upsets, crazy fans, young good looking yet unslutty cheerleaders. So many games come down to the wire. And the kids play hard whereas NBA players dont. When is the last time you saw NBA teams full court press early in the game?

Nothing compares to the drama that is marchmadness.

The last time I saw a lot of sloppy, uncoordinated basketball, that's when.

A full court press early on is the equivalent of drinking heavily prior to going to a club. What's the point? You're only wasting energy that can be used when it really matters.

If you went to college in the US- at a basketball school- then you know NCAA basketball is awesome. I got to enjoy four wonderful years of Bob Knight at TTU.

NBA players would never press because they are toolazy. So uch for 48 minutes of hell.
NCAA is better because the actual competetiveness is superior. NBA needs stars, so people like Kobi and Lebron get favorable treatment by the refs. Utterly ridiculous. The NBA regular season means nothing.
