basketball requires alot of stamina (to get up and down the court but you need to be quick for hockey at the top levels of sport i would say they are both equal but at amateur level basketballers are fitter coz they get more time to play not just in slots in the evenings!

THE BEST ICE HOCKEY PLAYER RIGHT NOW HAS TO BE JAROMIR JAGR. BUT WATCH OUT FOR ALEXANDER OVECHKIN AND SID 'THE KID' CROSBY.JAROMIR HAS FOUND HIS PASSION FOR THE GAME AGAIN. HE'S INSPIRED TO PLAY EVERY NIGHT AS OPPOSED TO TAKING GAMES OFF EVERY NOW AND THEN LOKE HE DID IN THE PAST. LET'S HOPE HIS SHOULDER INJURY DOES NOT PROVE TO BE A HINDERANCE IN THE FUTURE.

Micheal Jordan no doubt.\n\nIn Jordan's 15 year career he averages 30.12 points per game. Went to six NBA Finals and won six titles.\n\nWhile Kobe only has 23.9 points per game in ten seasons. In those ten seasons he has played four NBA finals and won only three.\n\nPlus Jordan is a better role model to children than Kobe.

Don't really understand your question. If your asking who is better, that questionis unanswerable. They are completely different players. Nash is a point guard. His job is to dish the ball and to be the leader on the floor, almost like an extension of his coach. TMac is a scorer. His job, basically, is to score and rebound. If you like at their track records, it is arguable that Nash is a greater asset to his team. He has taken his team furtehr into the playoffs than TMac. Also, TMac always seems to get hurt. Nash is always reliable, and he's white.

Junior hockey is very exciting and more wide open than the NHL.\n\nMany of the future stars come from the OHL and it is nice to see them play on the way up and of course it is a lot cheaper to go to the junior games.

The word 'best' is not a very descriptive one. It all depends on your defintion of best. If your definition is a fast, physical, endurance game, then the answer would be basketball. If you defintion is a short burst, strength and energy, thinking game, the baseball would be the answer. The best all around basketball player is Kevin Garnett and the best all around baseball player is Alex Rodriguez.

I don't see a problem.  It's not like you're saying "all black athletes are better than white athletes" or "all white students are better than black students."  However, the conclusions you draw by looking at a small sample of athletes or a pile of numbers are somewhat faulty.  Here's why:  Yes, there are a lot more black athletes in the NBA than white athletes, but how many black hockey players do you know?  They are some of the strongest, fastest, toughest guys on the planet.  Also, it may be true that statistics show blacks as not scoring as high on aptitude tests than whites, but we have charter schools in Detroit that are 95% black students (or better) and these kids are scoring higher on the SAT/ACT than their white counterparts in the suburban Christian academies.  My point is this:  Be careful about making general comments about any given race, and try to look at the whole picture when using "evidence" to back up your claims.

nope.......   Nowitzki is much better, Tim Duncan, etc.....\n\nwhen was the last time you saw KG hit a big shot??????

A bit of both but slightly more ballhog. You know he's a ballhog because just look at his stats from his "amazing" game 81 POINTS & 2 ASSISTS pretty big contrast huh? But you can't deny that he's slightly unstoppable because, as you can see by watching him, he's such a shooter that no matter what type of shot he has to take, chances are he'll make it if it's a bit of a distance inside the arc.

Hockey, by a mile!  It's fast.  It's exciting.  It makes me jump on my couch and scream: Let's go Rangers!!!\n\nWhy do I love hockey?  Here are a few reasons:\n\nJagr, Lundqvist, Prucha, Malik, Kasparitis, Sykora, Nylander, Ward, Moore, Ortmeyer, Hollweg, Straka, Rucinsky, Ruccin ... and so on.

I like (and ref) hockey and soccer for mostly the same reasons:\n\nConstant action - it might sound conical, but I love it when you see 2 guys running on empty in front of a goal... who's gonna dig deeper, who wants it more.  Football you can run out of bounds, baseball you can step off/out, basketball you can call a timeout.\n\nAge of players - it's not uncommon to see a player in their late 30's.  They might not have the endurance of the younger players, but sometimes brains beat brawn.\n\nPenalty kicks/shots - who DOESN'T like them.\n\nBig saves - watching a goalie/keeper lay out and sacrifice his body is one of the ballsiest (if that's a word) things in sports.  And when the crowd "aaaaahhh"'s afterward is pretty cool too.\n\nThose are just a few common reasons.  But for hockey in particular, I like the speed and hitting.  Fights are a bonus, but they're rare.  I grew up in Minnesota, so hockey is in my blood.

Wade i think is better. He just puts the ball in the net, he doesn't try to show off that much, that is why i think he is better.
