I never understood this. Basketball is more cramped on a smaller court with a smaller net but they get goals like every 10 seconds. In soccer there is way, way more room but maybe 3 goals the entiee game. How?

Easy to score in basketball but harder in soccer?

Probably because possession in soccer is more difficult to maintain while each time you get the ball in basketball you almost always get a shot in
This is the answer you're looking for OP. This is a major rule that dictates when and how a shot at the basket can be blocked.
The guy has a history of trolling, just yesterday he successfully conned people into a discussion about whether or not Travis goddamn Scott was known for more than "dating a Kardashian"
Yeah, I imagine soccer scores would be quite a lot higher without goalies.
lol that makes more sense then, this feels like trolling.
I'd like to see official changes or a version of soccer that promoted more goals per game. Far more watchable and lower the risk of a tie or 0 - 0 score.
Have you noticed that Basketball doesn't have goalies or anyone that can fly around at goal height? Also you can use your hands.
Did I wake up in bizzaro-land today? There are tons of answers to this question, many of them already in this thread. But you literally partially answer the question in the first eight words of the second sentence of the OP. Yes, having a smaller field of play results in more scoring opportunities. Ever watch NFL versus arena football and notice which games have higher scores?
In a more serious tone.
Ποδοσφαιρο has goalkeepers, καλαθοσφαιριση has not.

Is there really? Mathematically it should be easier on a bigger court.
Short of making the pitch smaller... what changes could you implement to "promote more goals"?
Offsides only occurs at the 18 yard line rather than furthest player back, similar to the blue line in hockey.
