[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2827536, member: 73370"] over the past 2-3 years i have found college basketball as a whole harder and harder to watch and it mirrors the nba offensive model of one player trying to break down a defense with the drive and kicking the ball out to shooters positioned around the 3 point line. i don't find that very enjoyable at the nba level where they actually make a good percentage of those shots and the individual skill level is fairly high. the disinterest gets multiplied with college games where the ball handling is sloppier and the shooting is mediocre for most teams. best analogy for me is when you have kids taking ballet and for 6 months working on their routines for their annual christmas recital which of course is the nutcracker. you can watch your 8-year old stumble through their 2 2-minute routines because you love them and that feeling overrides you ability to discern any real degree of skill, but when you are watching every other routine you see just how unskilled and unprepared the dancers are for groups that have spent 6 months supposedly practicing their routines [/QUOTE]
