Comments
The clear leader of this poll was the never miss shooter, though there were supporters of both players, as indicated by the comments sent by voters in this poll.
- Defense wins matches points decide by how many
- If the opposition can not score and you can just get one point you win. Also you can score from any where, but the other team can also score points.
- If you can block everything, then what good does it do to be able to shoot from everywhere. The blocker will surely score one goal, which is all need.
- Should have them both
- Just cause they can shoot from anywhere doesn't mean they can score from anywhere
- If he can block anything than the other team can't ever score.
- You have to score points in basketball to win.
- The other team wouldn't score any points
- If someone can shoot and score from anywhere then they can score past the good blocker dude.
- I admit it would be good to have a good defender on the team but it would be far more help if you could have a player who never missed from anywhere
- This is a hard 1! because if u have someone who can block nothing then another player might be able to shoot.
- A player that can shoot from anywhere is no big deal, he might be able to shoot from anywhere, but can he MAKE the shot
- A player that can block anywhere can block a player who can shoot anywhere
- I guess the ultimate team is the team who can play both defense and offense.
- Good offense is best defense
- I don't like my teammates who can shoot from anywhere shoot all the time ... I want to play basketball too you know.
- No shoot no points, no points no WIN
- You need a variety on your team but a player who can shoot from anywhere can do major damage- Val
- Cus ne1 that can defend well is wikid n u need em on ya team
- Cus they r more likely 2 get alot more points 4 the team some peeps say im like that a ha ha lol!!
- You will always have players who can score, but if the opposition cannot score, you will win even if its only by one basket
- Chances are most players you will play against would be good enough blockers or defenders
- If u have a player who can shoot and score u don't need a blocker
- If he can shoot from anywhere then he's the most dangerous player.
- Defense performances appear to depend on singular efforts from guards than offense performances that result from the talent of an entire team
- Most of the guys who can block also are able make some points; the shooters, shoot; give me some D guys!
- If you can shoot from anywhere a blocker can not block you because you should be able to get the blocker jumping than blow right by him
- I think shooting from anywhere is awesome! I mean, when you can block that's cool too but I mean from shooting anywhere.
- Remember Defense is everything no defense and the other team can score and beat you.
- Offense starts with defense. One man won't win a game with a his shooting unless you stop the other team from scoring
- A player who can block anything can block a player who can shoot from anywhere, which makes him useless.
- It's easier to teach defense than it is to teach athleticism
- Neither exist
- The score would be nil all because one can shoot from anywhere and one can block from anywhere it would end up nil all.
