i find it funny most of the people who are so sure about this have never played both sports competitively.
I have.
Its two different types of conditioning but i assure you both are equally taxing on the body.
Most of you are claiming athleticism is just straight cardio. Its a big part no doubt...but not everything.
I think you would be amazed at say someone like Lebron James is 6'8? like 240 i think? Dude could keep up with most professional soccer players in a foot race and probably last just as long on the field(as in cardio, not actually being good at the sport)...then afterwards he could bench press each player.
Then go to a shoot around for 2 hours
Basketball is VERY similar to soccer/footy in strategy...and also flopping

Anyways, some of my coworkers and I were talking about this. Who is the most athletic athlete in the world? The funniest one was how LeBron is the most athletic man on earth and because of this he would dominate every sport in the world.
