Basketball Statistics Referred Concepts:
Commentaries and Outcomes of our Research about the Rebounding Rating

We'll have a look to some interesting commentaries and outcomes of our research about the Rebounding Rating:

 • after missed three points shots from the left or right corners the ball returns to those zones in a figure of the 75%;

 • after missed two points or three points shot from the middle returns to the same area in a figure of the 85%;

 • "in the paint" ( A3 ) shots result in more undisputed rebounds ( B1 );

 • the highest offensive rebound rate occurs with three-pointers which rebound falls close to the basket;

 • a great percentage of the second chance points are from offensive rebounds after two-points jumpers from outside ( A2 );

 • three pointers, particularly from the corners and the center, lead to more intermediate ( D2 ) and open ( D1 ) rebounds;

 • the former examples give important information to statisticians and coaches when the outcomes establish probable directions of the ball after bouncing;

 • when in B1 we chart how many players are in the ball area, we must analyze of those players how many tried to dispute the rebound;

 • in general terms, we can say that 34% of the rebounds are undisputed ( B1 ), 32% are disputed ( B2 ), 21% are favorable ( B3 ) and 13% are unfavorable ( B4 );

 • we must include in our analysis the situations of the players posting up on the right side when the ball bounces to the left and the blocking out position;

 • when we analyze undisputed rebounds ( B1 ): help on defense and number of players the offense send to the glass are items to record;

 • any new analysis and added category to this research must take in account that rebounding involves a wide range of scenarios and is not just jumping and timing, but also positioning, blocking out, evaluating the flight of the ball and the credit to the received help from the teammates.

Julius Irving aka Dr. J speaks on NBA Lockout at ESPY's

Dr. J is no stranger when it comes to the business and politics of sports.
It wasn't that long ago when the best player in the ABA league (Dr. J) helped bring the "Above The Rim" style street ball onto the professional courts of the NBA.

It's safe to say that the Dr. himself helped to shape the NBA into the high flying and mind dazzling dunking highlight reel that it's become today.

If it wasn't for Dr. J, The Vince Carter's, Lebron James's, and even Michael Jordan's may never have had the chance to bedazzle the crowd with their over the top superman"esque" dunks that have made the NBA what it is today, a profitable business
