What's worse: Missing Layups or Missing tackles?

Disclaimer: Ion watch Futbòl or Baseball so whatever the equivalent is y'all can educate me and I'll edit the poll

I'm in a workplace discussion about which is more infuriating....

When you're watching (or playing for) a basketball team consistently get to the basket and just miss layup after layup after layup. I'm talmbout missing off the front iron, toilet bowls that roll back out, air balling the putbacks, like "the rim is on some bullshyt today" status

Or

Watching (or playing for) a football team that just can't tackle to save their lives. The other team averages 7 ypc with 6.5 of those yards being yac Basic ass screen passes go for 45 yards (and only b/c they pushed the ball carrier out of bounds) Slant routes go for 80 yard TD's etc etc

If you're sitting watching your favorite team....which one gives you that permanent

Trying to take an athletic 190-300lb man to the ground is waaay harder than putting a ball in a hoop from inches away

Missing layups.

In baseball, there isn't really an equivalent. Even if a pitcher throws a meatball, the batter still has to time it right and he could even crush it, but the ball could go right at a defender.
In soccer (and probably hockey), it would be missing an open net. It would take a mistake to see an open net in soccer. It would probably mean the goalie was pulled for it to happen in hockey (like in the last 60 seconds of a game you're losing)

Missing tackles
Watching a play go from a two yard loss or gain to a twenty plus yard play or TD is disgusting. A blown layup is just two points. Missing tackles changes momentum or potentially gives up points

Layups easily thats 100% your fault unless you get hacked.

 

[mozichrome]

when you can see the other football team heart being taken away and they no longer got the will to tackle....that shiit frustrating watching

Missing tackles. I've been watching raiders defense let 2 yard plays go for big gains 10+ years.

Missing layups don’t have tiers like tackles do. You should be rested the next game if you play over 20 mins per after missing a layup.

Can I really blame Josh Norman for gettin stiff armed by Derrick Henry?

I can def blame B Knight for blowing a wide open layup to lose the game doe

Missing freethrows >>>>>>>>>


Pitiful

 

[KingJay]

Missing a fast break layup with no one around

 

[THE K-MAN]

Missing layups around my way will almost guarantee yo ass not getting back on the court.

Dropping a routine fly is crazy
