Basketball is Here

Basketball season is officially in full swing, which marks my favorite time of the year.  The NBA season has begun, as well as the NCAA season.  High school basketball has started practice, and the games will be here soon.  A topic recently has been the debate about which is better, the NBA or NCAA. Personally, I enjoy watching college basketball much more than I like watching the NBA. In professional basketball, the players play for the money. At the collegiate level, the players play to win championships, which is much more respectable.  Everyone knows that it is not the best players that win, but the best teams.  This is much more important to the college players because they do not have the freedom to just be paid to do what they do best yet. Today in the NBA, the referees are so lenient because the superstars are so powerful and will complain without repercussions.  If the players in the NCAA complain, the coaches will simply bench them. This creates better chemistry on teams, which in turn creates more competitive and respectable teams and tournaments all together.
