Perhaps this moment wouldn't exist if you didn't waste a page arguing that passing a ball forward is a "completely different" in soccer than basketball because it's a "completely different sport". Jesus **** christ.

It is different and it's obvious for anyone watching both sports.

A lion hunting an antelope is different than a carnivorous plant waiting for a bug. Does that change it increases the likelihood of getting nutrients when you are closer to your quarry?

No?

Then my analogy doesn't break just because ball-progression in one sport isn't exactly the same as ball-progression in another. This is now the second time you've implied I don't watch the sport to

A. Avoid acknowledging your mistake
or
B. Broadcast you don't know how analogies works

Incredibly productive. Have you considered, not clicking threads titled "lebron vs jordan"? My "agenda" is not an excuse to derail a thread because you didn't realize "progressive pass" meant "a pass that takes the ball closer to the goal"
its my last message in this thread, but I just admit, that all the people, casual and analytical minds, more or less have consencus who has the weight of a rubberized duck. And its not JaivLLLL
