How about this...ALL pro sports suck in 2017 because it has become all about Billionaires paying Millionaires and Political Correctness. The NBA just happens to be the worst of all the pro sports!

I feel that way but it is because I'm from a state with no pro team so I grew up without any allegiance to any team.

Our college teams are good, though.

There is nothing in the college game more exciting (to me), than the 7th game in a hard-fought NBA playoffs series. Especially if it's an NBA Finals game 7.

Love watching college basketball. Atmosphere is much better. NBA is just incredibly boring to me.

there are a ton of people that prefer college football to the nfl. the college football product, at its highest level, is just as good, if not better, than the nfl.

not nearly as many people prefer college bball over the nba, as the nba product is light years better than college ball. the ncaa tournament might be the most exciting postseason in sports, but the quality of play isn't close to the quality of the nba.

I have no issue with someone preferring CBB over the NBA. Just don't come in here telling me the NBA is one on one iso ball. That's not even close to accurate.

How would you know? You still think there is a ton of one on one ISO ball being played.

There is a ridiculous amount of talent in the NBA right now

ETA: if the season ended today, 33 players would have finished the season averaging 20+ points per game. I believe the previous record was 27.

I enjoy watching college basketball, not so much NBA. I don't hate it, it's just not as entertaining to me I guess.
