If I wasn’t the GOAT in basketball, what other sport I would be the GOAT in? Lacrosse. And I’d be a beast out on the field… I got pretty good accuracy when it comes to things.

There are also two types of Lacrosse: field and box.
Americans don’t play box, but generally speaking box lacrosse takes way more skill. It’s easy to transition from box to field and not vice versa. The best box players in history are guys you’ve probably never heard of.
That’s said, box lacrosse and basketball do actually share a lot in common. More than field at least.
Americans most certainly do play box. 100000X more fun than playing on a field.
Really? I enjoyed playing field more but played both for just under 8 years
I played mainly field all of my life. When I played box the first time it just felt so cool. Almost had a hockey feel to it. felt professional. living in the south, playing in AC is always a plus too.
Fair :) I played some travel ball for field and loved all the tournaments on the east coast with the real lax players.
Box lacrosse was super fun but I’m a tall skinny guy, I was good at attack in field but didn’t have the body to stop a big middie so when I went to box I was getting smoked until I got the weight on me. Both are so much fun though, I truly think it’s the greatest sport to play/watch but it’s harder to watch as it’s a smaller league
Are you talking about John Tavares, uncle of John Tavares?
Saying Box LaCrosse take more skill than field seems a poor take. It’s more fast paced for sure. I prefer field because I grew up playing field and don’t like playing on turf. I think it’s a personal preference.
An accurate comparison to is futsal vs football.
When you say “skill” are you referring to stick skills or overall athleticism?
Indoor definitley takes more skill than outdoor where outdoor your athleticism gets you pretty far.
That Chris hogan dude from the patriots found himself on a PLL roster after not playing lacrosse since college. That dude doesn’t survive on the bench in indoor.
Probably never heard of?
