Love the new avatar BTW.

IMHO...College Basketball is by far the best televised Team Sport there is....March Madness is THE greatest tournament in the land...
Mostly follow the Big East teams...especially the Orangemen of Syracuse....but the ACC ain't bad to watch either...

Yep, it is unbelievable. To me there is nothing better then cheering for a midmajor team like SIU. They really aren't a mid major anymore because we have a better recruiting class then DUKE coming in, pretty amazing.

That freshman for 'Cuse is pretty serious

I am in the minority, but college b-ball is horrible. They have no clue how to move the ball, rotate on defense, spread the floor, exposing the weakness of the opponent, you touch the player with the ball and it is a foul, the shooting is horendous. I prefer the NBA much better. They know how to move the ball around the arc, rotate on defense, expose a weakness on the other team and the talent is so much better.

One would hope the talent is better, considering the NBA is a PRO league...

If you want to watch the NBA, just tune in for the last 10 minutes. I am unable to watch the NBA, I do like College Basketball, kids playing their hearts out.

This is my point....I don't understand why anyone would want to watch lesser talent. It would be like watching a $10k maiden race for three year olds instead of watching the Derby. Why watch a bunch of semi-talented college b-ball players instead of some of the best athletes in the world. There have been a handful of college teams that I really enjoyed watching the past 20 years. I liked the Florida team the past 2 years, Kentucky when Pitino was there and UNLV in the early 90's.

i wouldn't watch an nba game if the were playing in my front yard.
the college game has even gone downhill since the 3 point line was installed. the college players today don't shoot or handle the ball well at all. the game has no flow anymore. the days of the old unlv "runnin" rebs are long gone.

The NBA is important because I'm gonna kick some tail in the DT fantasy BBall league

Considering Tyler had 0 points in the second half and Ty had 5 points and 1 assist for the entire game...yea, I will take the win.
