    Since the Lock out is on. Would you watch International Basketball if it were offered?

    Or is College be the only way.

    What are some alternative Basketball to watch in this Lock Out season

    hell no. NBA can barely hold my interest since the Rockets suck so much.

    Depends on the quality of the broadcast, as well as the quality of the players. Every once in a while, I'll see what seems to be an intriguing matchup from the Euroleague on NBATV. More often than not, it's in poor quality SD, and I end up turning the channel in under a minute.

    I heard the fans are crazy overseas. I'd give it a shot. Better than half-empty lower bowl seats littered with people checking out their smartphones.

    European fans make US crowds look like total trash.

    The feeling with the European fans is just incredible, the games are intense as hell when the big clubs play. You don't need no superstars to get excited imo, Europe still shows the team spirit.
