I like to watch both. But streetballin' looks hella cool and you can tell they're playin' for fun and for the love of the game. You can't really tell with the high-paid NBA players. So I like streeball better.

MJ is the only player that ever liked playing basketball because everyone else on the court was insignificant to him.  Street ball is about attitude and playing real B-ball, the NBA is for wussies  And most tricks they do on street ball, maybe all would be considered travel or walking or something...their entertainers, not sell-outs. I wonder if there's a street hockey league?

Uhm, I know nothing about nba. But streetballers are cool to watch. They do tricks like the Harlem Globetrotters (or the ones that are my cousin's friends anyway.)

The nba player now aren't as good as those from like the 80's early 90's, but I bet they would wipe the floor with streetball players in a regulation game. And remember, you cant do all those tricks in a regulation game. |

I think NBA is better because it's based on the actual rules of the sport. Sure And 1's cool and Sauce handles the ball pretty well, but when it comes to playing within the rules, he's nothing more than a guy who can dribble with mediocre shooting.
