Love the Fans , so intense. The Tournament idea is a good one
BUT the Talent is a a ALL-Time Low , Along with it the Collective Basketball IQ of the Players is also at a All-Time Low
Just because some games are close , does not Mean it's a good contest. Don't let the Media Hype fool you .
The 35 second shot clock is a complete Joke . Teams are not running plays during this span . All they are doing is throwing the ball around the 3 point line wasting time until someone shoots up some horrible fade away Brick , or often just turning the ball over .
Where is the good team Defense ??? I don't see it .. Players Flop like Trout out of water , often giving the shooter a and 1. Just Man UP and Play some defense
Free Throws are supposed to be "FREE" ... The % of chokers is just sad .
Open jump Shot ??? yeah right these kids just wanna back it up and hang at the 3 point line and force bricks in the hopes of getting on Sportscenter.
The Refs are Middle school level . So Many stupid calls , or Idiot non-calls . Funny how they love to hand out ticky tack fouls to a player giving him 2 in the early first half which sends him to the bench for most of the contest.
ALL the timeouts . I can't imagine trying to play a game of basketball and having the game stop every 3 minutes so they can squueze in some more corp. greed or a coach can come his players down and tell them to hoist more bricks .
The talent Level is garbage . ALL the good players are long gone into the NBA . 99% of the ones here think they are one more rushed 3 pointer away from getting there ...
I am sure you disagree , but do you have any valid reasons ????

Compared to what? A bunch of blowouts every night in a league where 1/3 of the teams are terrible, another 1/3 average? Suns, Pistons, Kings, T Wolves, Cavs, Magic, Raptors, Hornets, etc. There's a reason why the NBA will be broke in a few years and striking again. All that "talent" they have yet it's a league where only 3-4 teams have a legitimate shot at winning a championship? Who really wants to watch the Eastern Conference playoffs this year?
I'd rather watch players with lesser talent and more passion than players with more talent with little passion.

if it's Passion you crave , Go down to a YMCA in the hood. Plenty of guys laying it on the line for hours , with no timeouts , bull garbage calls , free throws etc ....

Dwight Howard? DeAndre Jordan?

JR Smith?

CBB - In non-televised games each team gets 4-75 second and 2-30 second timeouts per game.In televised games each team gets 1-60 second and 4-30 second timeouts, with an unused 60 second and a maximum of 3 unused 30 second timeouts carrying over to the second half.
NBA - Each team has six timeouts for each game, four of which are mandatory and are used at specific times in each of the four quarters. Each team also has two 20-second timeouts which can be used (one in each half, and they cannot be carried over or saved). In overtime, each team receives three full timeouts.
The talent Level is garbage . ALL the good players are long gone into the NBA . 99% of the ones here think they are one more rushed 3 pointer away from getting there ...
Orlando Magic? Phoenix Suns? Awesome talent.
Of course the NBA is going to have more talent. You get the most talented players from college. In college you can only stay 4 years, where most players (mostly because of money) leave early for the NBA.

These guys are not THugs ??? what gang are they in >??? how many weapons charges ??? Maybe some have an atitude , but no real problem to society
DeMarcus Cousins consistently is near the top of the NBA in technical fouls. He's a cancer to his team. Metta World Peace ran into the crowd and punched several fans. You don't need to be in a gang to be a THUG.

and it was an empty cup. guy charges a skinny white fan after getting hit by a cup, which was the wrong fan anyways, yet he doesn't retaliate after being shoved in the face by Ben Wallace.

Doubleup4life I know you bet NCAA football alot, what's the difference when watching a team like Alabama crushing on a division 2 school. Or how the NCAA matches these powerhouse school against these small school that have no chance. Alot off college football players leave early to to NFL . Not common now for a player to stay 4 years.
I like watching NCAA bball in the tournament but not much during the season. I see these kids playing their heart out but sometime they do chuck up to many 3s. Should we make these kids stay another year like college football. College bball has gotten more exciting since they stop letting these kids go straight to nba from high school. I think they should make them stay till after their sophomore year to enter in nba draft .
