90% of the time I prefer NCAA. The playoffs I prefer over March after the first weekend. The NBA regular season is a disease that doesn't the least bit interest me. The fact I have no real NBA team is not real helpful either. Was tempted to be a 76ers fan, but meh.

CBB by a country mile. I say this while acknowledging that the play in the NBA is far superior (obviously). I also think CBB needs to clean up their product and make the game more free-flowing.

Yeah, but the first weekend is what makes March Madness great. The first weekend of the NCAA's >>>>> anything the NBA has to offer

Should be on the general board.

Having this poll on the CBB board will lean towards CBB. Just like if this same poll was posted on the NBA forum.

I prefer NBA

CBB to me is a team game, the nba is a bunch of guys running 1 on 1's

I don't really buy that. There are certainly a few superstars guilty of this in recent years and teams. At the same time, I don't think the Spurs and Warriors are super ISO reliant. There were a few Lebron teams that definitely felt ISO constipated.

NBA = Not Basketball Anymore. Dudes pick up their dribble at half court and then dunk the ball, but somehow it's not traveling. Your fingertip touched his fingernail on his follow hrough after the ball has left his hand and it's hard enough to knock the dude to the MF ground. Then they actually call it a foul instead of calling the dude on the ground a bitch.

This crap is filtering down to college ball mire and more every year. But it's always worse in the NBA.

I love CBB.

But it's an inferior product. And it's dirty.

Yep the NBA is a much better product.

Even though the first weekend of March Madness is crazy in terms of upsets and Cinderella teams, the basketball is so bad.

I watch both.

But I prefer college. There have been years past where I watched more NBA though. I'm just a hoops fan. I could watch high school kids playing summer ball and its fun.

Villanova has been really good lately and that has coincided with the Nets just being not only absolutely terrible, but doing everything imaginable to kill their own fanbase.

I never imagined Villanova could ever be this good. Coincidentally, the period where they really sucked was the only time in history that the Nets were good.

The tournament has always been and will always be my favorite sporting event, and its not even close.

But yea, I love hoops period.

NCAA and it's not even close for me!

NBA has no defense, no plays and bunch of whining cry babies that think everything is a foul and they never commit one!

It is a better product and every time I see an NCAA team blow a 3 on 1 fastbreak, I'm reminded that almost never happens in the NBA.

However, the games mean more in college. That Duke/Virginia game was huge.

The NBA feels like its on cruise control a lot of time.

Also, superteams have killed it a little bit for me. I'm from the era of Bird, Magic, and Jordan.

I like both and watch both but going to a Thunder game is head and shoulders better than going to an OU basketball game.
