Soccer(pro) vs Basketball(con)

I am debating the point that soccer is in fact a better sport than basketball, why? First point: physical fitness - soccer (football) players are required to be able to endure two periods of non-stop forty-five minute halves plus extra time at the end (making up for injuries, fouls, etc.) - basketball players technically play total of forty-eight minutes with timeouts, fouls, quarters, etc. Thus saying it requires a better level of fitness/endurance to play forty-five minutes non-stop in soccer. Second point: skill level - humans are raised using their hands and have a natural ability and coordination with their hands. To play soccer, you must learn to use your feet, to be able to pass or shoot the ball with every side of your foot. Or to use any other part of the body excluding arms and hands. -The only person able to use their hands is the goalkeeper, who even then is better than the average basketball player, requiring gun shoot speed reflexes and strength to keep a ball out of their net. An example for this is that an average penalty kick (a set play, in which a ball is placed 12 yards from the goal line and a player goes face to face with the goalie with one shot. Resulting from getting fouled in the goal box.) can reach an average speed of around 125 mph in a quarter of a second. -Unlike basketball, in soccer the foot skill to hand skill ratio is much higher. Soccer players can perform endless amounts of tricks whether it be for a shot: header, scissor kick, bicycle kick, scorpion, etc. or a way to move the ball forward: scissors, maradona, elastico, robhino, rainbow, etc. These can be performed whenever and wherever. But in basketball, there is a much smaller list of tricks like what, an alley-oop, slam dunk, through the legs? -The ability to score a goal without using your hands (which like basketball is much easier) and to put it past a usually tall aggressive goalkeeper takes more skill and precision than to lob a ball with your hands into a basket. Many all-star soccer players can do this with their feet, I want to see a basketball player try to do score a basket with their feet, or even a goal at that. Third point: entertainment and popularity: -Soccer is the much popular sport in the world, likely because of its simplicity to set up a pick up game and excitement to watch. Though it isn't America's sport, it is vastly and fastly growing throughout. -Soccer is much easier to understand with less rules and more ability to play without stopping which is why fans love it. They get to watch endless soccer except for at half time. Basketball lasts technically 48 minutes of gameplay but can literally last for 2 and half hours making its fan sit through 132 minutes of non playtime. -In basketball when teams can start to score over 100 points it gets boring watching the same things over and over again when in soccer you have an anticipation and thrill in waiting for that one golden goal, and when it does come the excitement explodes with the fans and the players. But goals aren't the only thing people come to watch. They get to see beautiful passes, set plays, skill moves, goalkeeper saves, and many other exciting plays. Basket fans get excess amount of baskets to see made, occasionally a dribble trick and slam dunk every once in awhile. The really only exciting part in my, and many others opinions is in the final 5 minutes when you get to really see who might win. Who will accept this debate? Open with your response to my arguments.
