Personally, a great game goes to OT and I feel like it's a great thing. But not all OT games are created equal -- I had a varsity girls game a few years back where the score was 24-24 after regulation and we called more fouls than that, including technicals on both head coaches. I'd rather have had painful dental work than sit through 4 more minutes of that.

In one season I had the experience of both a great and a horrible OT game. Varsity boys, home was down big early, climbed back the entire 2nd half and sent it to OT with a layup with just a few seconds left. Great game.
JV girls, small school, score tied at 18 with 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter. After the first OT, the score was tied at 18.
