show me a guy, a single guy, getting 5 consecutive Orebs in a game, then show me it happening in even the same league on another guy the same season. I have never seen it. 2 or 3 in a row sure. 5 in a row?
I never argued that they were by the same guy...you argued for it. In fact, before I edited I expressly said ORs by different players. And yes, 4-5 ORs happen at least once or twice a season. 3 in a row happen every single week.

Oh my, nitpick we shall, uh? Count how many inside shots there were in that Miami sequence...do you want me to qualify that in BB you get 5 ORs mostly on inside shots or mid range jumpers where given the low of physics a rebound is not going to bounce 15 feet away from the basket? Ok...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nVpqmOElxQ...I think as a team that counts up like 7 or 8 Orebs and 5 or so in a row for good old Pau. All in a VERY short span of time.
And you'd be wrong: by any reasonable standard that's 5 ORs for Gasol and the final good one, you should know how box scores work. That happened in the span of 10-13 seconds.
What happens unrealistically in BB is that in the span of a minute the same team keeps the ball attempting several shots out of a set, mostly at the rim or inside the 3pt line and rebounds all of them with various players. Those are not putbacks. Maybe I should have I clarified that what REGULARLY happens (not once in several thousand games) in this game is a mix of the Heat crashing the boards and the Lakers missing shots from under the basket? Ok I hope we're all on the same page now.
Saying guards can't Oreb FTs is an indication you are about on par with the original devs in your understanding of the game.
Here is an amazing one-
Nice try. Yao missed on purpose and regarding the other kid, it was a 1 and 1 FT, a rule that you have pretty much only in the NCAA and whose call was probably misunderstood by both teams. So that we're clear, 1 and 1 means that you don't shoot 2 FTs by default until you're in double bonus, otherwise you shoot the second only if you make the first shot. I have no idea what team foul that was and if the teams (both teams, since Oklahoma's guys did not move either) thought that Fields had 2 FTs. At any rate that's a situation that cannot happen anywhere in the world except for the NCAA and I'd be very surprised if in Japan you don't play by FIBA rules.
I have no idea what kind of kungfu rebounding techniques you teach your kids nor which rule book you use, since the rules in all competitive leagues clearly state that 5 players (and the FT shooter) have allocated places during a FT and the 4 players who are not in the FT slots outside the restricted area must stay behind the 3pt line and behind the extended FT line itself...so coming to Jordan (and Iverson) and those few others who did it:
a) they did not rebound their own misses (of course, since the shooter can't go past the FT line until the ball hits the rim)
b) several of those rebounds were actually violations as they entered the 3pt line before the ball was shot or were under the "extended" FT line (that's not Jordan's case obviously, but there are Harper's videos out there)t
In any case good luck teaching those Jordans and Iversons, when the role of the 3rd defensive player on the rebounding slots area is exactly to block the middle of the lane.
There are over 5,500 games in the NCAA every season and there are 1200 in NBA. You found 1 example of a PG rebounding a FT he intended to make (with NCAA wonky rules) in how many years? 10? So one in 65,000 games? Chance of 0.000015? In BB there are ca 177-195 games per team per season. I've seen it happen twice already this season, one on my English team (the opponent PG rebounded) and one on my Utopia team (my guard did). You do the math. Then if you want to nitpick that 2 in 80 is the same as 1 in 65000 and that 1 in 65000 is statistically different than
