i've been to see quite a few college games (university of virginia) although i've never been to see a professional game. I've watched pro games on tv of course.

The best basketball you can watch is high school basketball.

There's something about it that seperates it from all the rest.

the spurs are doing good. The bulls are doing better then normal(im suspicious) and the nba seems to have a lot of european players now. im from salt lake but dont like the jazz.
sorry, but i never could get into high school just because i like the idea of my team being known nationwide.

I'm from Boston, and have been a diehard Celtics fan for over 40 years. Even went to Celtics-76ers games at The Spectrum in Philadelphia back in the 60's, proudly waving my Celtics pennant!

Also like college - March Madness is but days away!

Impressive! One of the most impressive things to me about the Celtics in the late 60's was how they bounced back quite well, remember in 67 when Philly defeated Boston in the playoffs and everyone was chanting "Boston's dead!" "Boston's dead!" And that that had been the first year since 58 they failed to win the championship, and their team was really starting to show their age. Then the next year in the playoffs they meet again I think in the conference finals, again Philly holds down a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. But Boston rallies to win this series and ends up winning it all! And then repeats in 69 with their historice game 7 victory at The Forum in LA. What a perfect way for Bill Russell to retire, still on top :D

That 66-67 Philly team was the best in the league's history up to that time.

Once Wilt Chamberlain learned that he was much more valuable getting assists than points, and "Chamberlain out to Greer" became the winning slogan, they were practically unbeatable. The addition of 6th man Billy Cunningham was the clincher.
