re: I wish people who say "I don't like NBA, but I like college" would say what they mean

I prefer CBB to NBA basketball just like I prefer CFB over the NFL.
I love CBB/CFB, I enjoy NBA/NFL.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

I like college sports in general better than professional sports due to my affiliation with a university that competes at a high level.
This although I think the NBA is a better product that CBB. I just don't get to follow the NBA as closely as I'd like.
Personally, I'm fine with both.

I have no problem admitting it. The Weather channel is more entertaining to me than an NBA game.

Was your last NBA game 1995?

Every time I turn on an NBA game they're playing an organ in the middle of the game. That's how shitty that league is.
And I'm a 22 year old that breathes basketball, so don't give me that old person bullshite.

"Old" is the worst thing you can be called on TD. So many think it's really hurtful, and if you dislike the present state of affairs on the given topic, that it somehow marginalizes your perspective and stated opinion.

Do you only happen to watch the Hawks or the Lakers?
Aside from that, THAT'S your example for disliking the NBA? Good grief. quote:

You're a Kansas basketball fan. OF COURSE you prefer college basketball. At least own that you just breath college basketball, though. Because if you truly loved the game itself, there's no question which league exhibits the best play.

NBA basketball is boring to watch & they don't care until playoffs.
And the top talent doesn't relate to fans as much as older stars did.

What a joke. You probably dominate at the rec too? TBird is spot on.

Well duh the NBA is better basketball. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought this thread was about which we preferred. Not the same thing. I prefer watching MLS over European leagues too and that sure as hell isn't because the quality of play is better.

Sony if you "breathe basketball," it would stand to reason that you are a fan of the NBA game, as well.

I'm not saying they're the same thing. Hell, I admit I'm biased towards the NBA, but I'm not up in here talmbout how shitty the college game is because they have pep bands or some silly shite
I was more taking issue with you saying the NBA was a shitty league, then turning around and saying you breathe basketball. That made literally zero sense Posted on 3/18/17 at 3:09 pm to TheDeathValley

I have no problem admitting the talent of NBA is better and teams are better. I just don't care a ton for the NBA game
Love college game though.
I love seeing 18-22 YOs break apart or light up in crunch time
I love seeing the trade off of 1YR one and done talent teams (UK) vs wel coached veteran teams w no NBA talent
I love seeing every game truly count for NCAA seeding
NCAA is set up better and just more fun. I mean it makes sense to bench superstars in NBA

The talent in the NBA is so elite and its played at such a high level it makes lower levels look like it isn't the same game.
Atleast college football looks reasonably similar to the same game as the NFL.
Outside if of just suppoeting my school I am going to watch the NBA for competitive basketball.

You're not serious with this?

The college game just gave us the type of excitement you never see in the NBA.
