Is pro basketball violence worse and more frequent than pro hockey violence?

Worse, sometimes, yes; more frequent, no. You don't see players like Ron Artest jumping into the stands, or Dennis Rodman kicking some cameraman in the groin too often, especially in hockey. After two hockey players fight, the score is settled and they move on. That's the worst violence in modern pro hockey. With basketball players, I get the feeling that they hold their grudges, especially with guys like Iverson. They may not fight on the court again, but the animosity is there.

Is pro basketball violence worse and more frequent than pro hockey violence?nba updates

Fan and player violence is what makes basketball worse than hockey but really the only thing that prevents a hockey player from swinging his stick on to the head of an offending fan is the glass cages.

Violence in hockey games are more frequent and theoretically as worse as basketball.

But if you really want sport violence, look no further than football (soccer) matches.

Well while fighting is part of hockey and it happens more often than in basketball. BUT, basketball violence is definitely way worse. Think of the Indiana Pacer/Detroit Pistons game with the huge brawl. And there is a lot more fights in basketball where the benches clear and all hell breaks loose. The Pacers/Pistons thing though will take the cake for the worst, for a long time to come, but the frequency is definitely hockey.
no way. remember "i went to a fight and a hockey game broke out" since it doesn't happen as often in the NBA the media tends to overglorify it.
