NBA Free Agency: Why College Basketball is better

Today, is the first official day of NBA Free Agency and also the day where the NBA's biggest stars (LeBron, D'Wayne Wade, etc.) can officially begin their negotiations with NBA teams. The hype is incomparable to any free agent class in any sport. Even though no body has official sign, which would be actual news, coverage of the free agent process is all over shown ESPN. One of the reasons why I'm not the biggest NBA fan, is because it is such a star-driven league. For any team that LeBron joins(if he leaves the Cleveland Cavaliers, LeBron is all of the sudden bigger than the franchise. The NBA teams are so dependent on their superstars that without them, they lose instant credibility. Remember the Bulls when MJ left? No one cared about them anymore. The NBA is even more picky; you can't just have a star, but one that appeals to a global audience and controls the destiny of the league. At least with college basketball, people can root for a team year in and year out.
