    is anyone watching penn st/providence?

    16-14 at halftime

    combined 11-43 shooting

    and yet ncaa got more votes as being more fun to watch than nba, when you watch a whole half of basketball and only see 11 shots go in

    Game two days ago 13-11 Fresno State at half but you're looking at shitty teams. Great thing is that there are so many teams vs NBA and nothing compares to March Madness

    worst nba game of the season and it still might double the points of this penn st/providence game if they don't foul at the end!

    Yea i def cherry picked the worst game of the year but they get an extra 8 minutes in the NBA so they better score more points. Give Penn State an extra 8 mins and see what they would do

    NBA is awful almost every night. Shooting like 40%

    12 mins Q's, 24-second clock and egos that can't be kept in check is the only reason why you see some points.

    i don't disagree with you often, but have to here k13

    defenses are better in the nba too

    nba has the best athletes in the world, lebron james is the best athlete i have ever seen in any sport and there's not even a close second

    Lebron, Duran, Kobe all have physical advantages over the rest. The rest of the league is just a bunch of clunkers shooting ~40%.

    Scoring is down, FG % is down, doubt it is because of defense, these guys are all lazy, blocks are down.
    NBA is a horrible product. No atmosphere.
    I was watching Duke play a few days ago then turn the channel to some NBA game and thought someone died in the building and it was marquee teams playing a close game.

    Have to agree that NBA regular season is garbage. Who really care about these meaningless games unless you have some cash on them. NBA Playoffs is entertaining, but overall college>NBA.

    college sports are always going to have a somewhat crazier atmosphere because the crowd is much younger and drunker.

    doesn't make the product better just because there are obnoxious dumbasses in the crowd
