Ultimately, it depends on your taste. College basketball brings out nationalism from each college, with the fans more raucous than any other professional team. The rivalries are present in each division, and when the rivals come to town, the games get very intense. The teams treat each game as though the season is on the line, and thus give 100% every game. They are also younger and more eager to play. Overseas, these guys are professionals. They have (for the most part) been to college and understand the game. The games will be less sloppy (fewer turnovers) with players having a a greater sense of how to play. Fantastic passes and alley-oops will be present, along with a tenacity synonymous with the international teams.
Probably yes. SEC teams have won the last 6 BC national championship games. Big east teams have't been nearly as dominant in the NCAA tournament. Last 6 winners have included ACC (Duke, UNC), Big 12 (Kansas), and SEC (Florida). I'd agree that Big East is the best in college basketball though.
A new basketball team has not been created for many years, but new teams are crafted with different players all the time. Coaches are able to essentially create a new team by making trades with players and signing free agents to their team.
