@LucidityGD I really hope you're joking..... baseball is literally 90% standing around in a field or in the pen. Players literally eat ice cream. basketball requires constant running back and forth, so stamina

Good points of view. In my opinion If we talk only about sport without talking about the leagues (NBA or MLB), baseball is more difficult because it has more rules, more variables, more players and more ways to score or avoid scoring, in short it is more complex. A person who does not know any sport would understand more quickly playing basketball instead of baseball. Although playing well and reaching the highest level in both sports I would say that it is equally difficult, you have to be an elite athlete to be an average player and a prodigy to be a superstar.

Heres one thing I think you didn't consider. where drafted players start, A first round pick from college in the NBA will start in the NBA a good amount of the time. In MLB? The first overall pick is in AA right now and historically some of the best players of all time still had to play through the minor league's before they even cracked the majors. it takes so much more practice to be even be the bare minimum MLB player.

I think you also missed how much of the physical endurance is another thing. In baseball you gotta go out there every day for almost an entire year, while basketballs schedule is a lot more relaxed, but then you can also argue that baseball games are a lot less stressful on the body than basketball games

@DJones1048 10 ай бұрын

Honestly depends on what you consider "hard." If you find more physically demanding work harder, then it would probably go to basketball just cuz of the cardio and they actually do push and bump each other around for position on the court. Not to mention, you kinda have to be lucky genetically to even really have a solid chance in basketball. But baseball, while it may not have as much cardio and physicality, the hand eye coordination and agility it takes to hit, field or even pitch is next level. However there is no like "body type" for baseball. You can be fat, throw gas and hit tanks like bartolo or you can be skinny and quick like ricky henderson and anywhere in between. I'll probably say baseball is harder just cuz the way you score points seems harder than it does in basketball. However i dont think theres a wrong answer to this question. It just depends on how you judge it.

Basketball is more taxing physically. Baseball is more difficult to make a comeback in. There's no turnover for baseball so they can score quicker. You just hope your pitcher can record 3 outs.

No, I’ve played both, and baseball is much harder, I’m ok at basketball and it is easier to score, baseball you mess up, you get destroyed. Anyone try hitting a baseball over 80 mph without practice and let me know how easy it is, try pitching without any practice. Now Try making a 3 pointer without any practice, or a close shot, blocking, bouncing the ball, I can tell you that it is WAY easier to make a 3 point shot than hitting that 80+ mph baseball, or pitching accurately and fast.

Basketball is more physically demanding of course. Baseball skill wise is significantly more demanding. It takes more years to be great at baseball than basketball. Baseball is more technical and takes more years to get good. There isnt a pro-baseball player who took up baseball at 18 and made it to the MLB. If you get a super athlete like Giannis or Erling Haaland to pick up baseball at 18 and have them train hard they wouldnt even make the Taiwanese or Mexican pro-league. In NBA while its not super common its not that rare either. Hakeem Olajuwan was 18 and Dikembe Motombo was already 20 when they started playing, not only that Hakeem despite starting at a later age he became a HOFer and considered one of the most skilled centers of all-time. That Dutch guy for the Pacers like it said in the video didnt start basketball until 22. Your as likely to find a camel with wings than you are to find a MLB player who started baseball at 18.

Cause the pitcher throws at 90mph 🤦‍♂️ Man in baseball every player has a role in basketball yes they do but all have to guard score drible rebound and run Even if u fat u can play baseball and be a hitter or something in basketball if u arent a freak or tall u have to be good or u cooked and fat people cant play a quarter 🤷‍♂️
