How can anyone like the NBA over Mens College Basketball?

Mens college basketball is so much more exciting then the NBA ever will be. Everyone in the college game is playing with so much more heart and determination to win then u will ever see in the NBA which makes it so much more exciting to watch.

1. NBA is better.
2. i agree with you. the nba is all about the stars and getting them all the points. College is a team sport and also the 3 point line is way to close so you can have someone take over easily.
3. ncaa ball is played with more intensity, but many of them are still kids. nba players are at the top of their game... ed: all the good players go to the nba, too... nba players don't have heart and determination? have you seen, say for example, lebron and kobe play?
4. For me, it's about quality. Some high school games have way more heart than college, but it doesn't make me want to watch them. Does anyone in ANY college game play at Kobe's level? The NBA players are so good, that even a bad NBA team is great with great players. So, for me, the greatness of the NBA players is more fun for me to watch than the heart of the college guys. Nothing against them, but the best college team could not touch the Miami heat if they played. The Heat would win by like 50 or more points. The levels are just so different that college is super exciting, but lacks the expertise. I hear your argument and it's a good one, I just don't agree for my personal tastes but lots of people feel the way you do. I do disagree with you saying that the college players play with more heart and determination than any NBA team. I see lots of heart and determination in the NBA, but just not as much as in the college level.
5. No doubt college has that intensity that you can't feel unless you are there. There is nothing like going to a college game, intensity is off the richter scale. But this year is different...believe me!! Lakers are back and hated and loved more than ever...Celtics are back and better than ever...CP3 could BE MVP////NBA is the best it's been since a guy buy the name fo Mike was in da house.
6. You are 100% correct. The NBA regular season is a joke. Anyone who thinks NBA players give their all every night is kidding themselves. The first 3 quarters of the game are pointless. It makes no difference what the score is. Might as well just start watching at the start of the 4th. Those that like the NBA better usually didn't grow up with good college basketball around locally. If you never had a team to root for growing up but did have an NBA team, your fanship was entrenched early for the NBA. Also, a certain demographic likes the "look at me and what I can do to you' individual performances of guys dogging other guys. Dunks in people's faces and such. The college game doesn't offer that as much egocentric showiness that the NBA does, so for those people who like that the NBA is more entertaining. Certainly, the NBA has more talent, and there is something to be said for watching guys for many years on your team instead of a constantly rotating roster. After that, the NBA doesn't offer much. College basketball is a sport. The NBA is entertainment.
7. college basketball games are better because of the emotion envolved. players are more pationate as they play for pride, and possibly be a first round pick in the NBA the talent level in the NBA is much higher but its also plagued with players who just think about money. so the quality of game is less sometimes because some players take extra care not to get injured and lose their chances on bigger contracts.
