Not really.
Chocolate releases energy quickly, meaning you will have a short energy burst followed by a fatigued feeling. It is better to eat food which releases energy slower. Many athletes east pasta a couple of hours before the game, to release energy throughout the game.

Of course. Even better if it's Chocolate flavored ICE CREAM!!!
Basketball is a very intense and physical game. You need to load up on carbs and sugar and anything that will get you hyper. The more sugar the better because your have more carbs to burn later in the game. ;)

No - it i probably not helping you at all. When you eat something that high in sugar it causes insulin rebound... which leaves your body feeling tired and lacking in energy.
You are probably better off eating something like a bagle and peanutbutter right before the game (about 1 hr before would be even better)

Only if you want to deposit the chocolate on the floor during the game.

that may be true but you may run out of energy from all that suger, lowering your energy when it really matters in the end of the game.
