Or do they?

In my game today (10309583)

I had 32 rebounds and 8 turnovers more than my opponent. That makes me to have 24 more ball possessions compared to my opponent.

Still I only managed to shot twice more from the field and had only 4 more free throws.

In my opinion something doesn't add up?

There are plenty of ways to have possessions uncounted for: 24-second violations are not individual turnovers, so they don't go in the box score

I have 9 individual TOs in the boxscore, but my team has total of 11 TOs?? You sure about that?

and you can't calculate extra possessions using rebounds, because that obviously depends on whether the shot was made or not.

Actually yeah, that's my mistake. You can calculate that from the offensive rebounds though (right?) and that would make me have 5 more possessions which would actually go pretty well hand-in-hand with the shot attempts... Such a rookie mistake.

There's no such thing in BB, as far as I recall.


I think I've seen a 3 second violation.

I meant that there is no situation where there is a 3-second violation which is not counted as an individual turnover, zone defense or no zone defense.


Well then.

Ismael Grubbs is awesome.

Who is Ismael Scrubbs?!


Ismael Grubbs would lose a one-on-one game to 21 against Larry Bird something like 21-17
