    o wow ever heard of buzzer beaters? last second shots? the last 2 minutes of a NBA basketball game are the most suspenseful and exciting 2 minutes in sports, no other sport comes down to the last second (and sometimes even fractions of a second) like basketball ... and playing basketball requires more skill than soccer Wink

    So just 2 seconds a game is suspensful...that's hardly anything...and no soccer requires more skills.

    The whole game is, its just that the last 2 minutes (not seconds) are climax .... basketball comes down to the last seconds ... in soccer the first team to score usually wins, really suspenseful Rolling Eyes

    ROTFL @ soccer requires more skill to play than basketball, kicking a ball around is really tougher than performing a crossover and making a reverse layup through traffic?

    BTW that reminds me, basketball players are MUCH better athletes than soccer players, its not even close lol Laughing

    Basket ball is boring as hell and if only the last 2 min are good then why watch them game when you can record it and just watch the 2 min? Soccer is much harder to play and is fun to watch for the entire game. btw any game can come up to a last sec shot not only basketball

    lol u guys are crazy, soccer is boring as hell, all u do is kick a ball around and get kicked in the shins all day, and like I said, basketball is entertaining for the entire game, its just that the last 2 minutes are the climax (improve your reading comprehension skills or somethin Rolling Eyes)

    and its not much harder to play, look lol:

    LOL

    Face it, basketball players are twice the athletes that soccer players are, I mean its not even close, they're bigger, faster, stronger, jump higher and have every physical advantage over soccer players .... and how much skill does it take to kick a ball? Even infants can kick objects ... and you probably can't even make a simple layup or make 3 shots in a row Laughing

    what? soccer player have to run around for 90 mins on a 100 yard pitch, they can jump pretty high for headers. the best thing about soccer is its such an easy game to play and understand, you dont need hoops or tall genes, you just need a ball and a wall. and that is why its so popular

    You act as if they run around full speed the whole game, whenever I watch soccer they're just jogging along and kicking lol and the truth is that pro soccer players can't jump higher or run faster than basketball players. Basketball is the second most popular game in the world and is catching right up to soccer ...

    BTW you just contradicted what pried said earlier about soccer being a difficult game to play Rolling Eyes

    thats the best thing about it, it can be difficult like any other sport played in the right conditions but the idea of it is so simple.

    Basketball is the second most popular game in the world and is catching right up to soccer ...
    ok thats a valid point.... Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. Ouch i guess my point is better Razz

    yeah well soccer is about a million years older than basketball Rolling Eyes

    if its so easy then you really don't need much skill to play lol, some great self defeating arguments here .... and you really only need to concentrate on one skill in soccer depending on your position, for example, if you're a defender all you do is defend butall 5 positions in basketball require you to play defense and offense ...

    well it depends on the type of team you play for, some like to play "run and gun" style which is a fast paced, high scoring up tempo game ... but there are plenty of fastbreaks in basketball games regardless .... and just cuz the dimensions of the court are smaller dosen't mean you run less often, it just means you go back and forth more often ...
