March Madness fans: Homes for hoops lovers

(MoneyWatch) Spring is right around the corner, and that means one thing to college sports fans: "March Madness." In fact, a new survey from MSN and Impulse Research found that nearly one-third of workers will spend at least three hours each day following the tournament during work hours.

Home court advantage goes a long way in the finals. So in that spirit we wanted to look at these baller-themed homes (photos and listings provided by Coldwell Banker.)
