I see that for the Spurs as well. There is plenty of teams out there in the NBA. Nobody glorifies the good teams, just the Kobes and Lebrons. I understand what you're saying. In my post, my point was that college basketball can be very boring at times when compared to the NBA. It is playoff time now, and we can see the real teams win and compete against each other.

College allows me to watch people hit 3 pointers that I could hit consistently and people pass it around for 30 seconds. One play doesn’t give you a good shot? Try a different one. The next play didn’t work? Well, let us try one more and see if we can still get a shot off before the buzzer. Talk about a boring game! Those are my main two problems: 3 point arc needs to back up and the shot clock is too long." - Spoken like a typical fan who has never played competitive basketball and can't appreciate the true beauty of the sport. Sure it's exciting to watch some ridiculously athletic guy do things nobody else can, but this is no way equals "better basketball." This is anti-better basketball. What a real fan of the SPORT of basketball wants to see is a TEAM of five guys on floor operating and executing as a single unit on both ends of the floor. Basically, I totally disagree with you. “The NBA is able to show me some good basketball.
