He didn't get the triple-double if I remember correctly. You can't get a rebound shooting at your own basket.
This was the only video I could find, the song is annoying. But does anyone remember Ricky Davis creating his triple double by doing this?

They went back and waived it because it was obviously intentional, but you can get a rebound shooting at your own basket. It's called an offensive rebound lol.
wtf is up with the end of the video?
defensive rebound
i remember that game
classic ricky
uh, no there, smart guy. A defensive rebound is when you get the ball off a missed shot at the -other- team's basket.
Offensive means you are on the OFFENSIVE when you get the rebound.
Just curious, newbie. Have you ever actually watched a game? Or do you just picture the men glistening in their muscled jerseys and rub one out?
Somebody needs to call NBA stats and have them remove about 1/3 of Moses Malone's rebounds then. His specialty was to intentionally snub the first shot off the bottom of the rim, directly back to himself, and then put the second one in. Definitely an easy way to get into the top 3-5 in rebounding every year.
I thought the basket a team is defending is considered "their" basket. Therefore, you can't be credited with a rebound if you secure a missed shot that you attempted at that basket. Which is what Ricky did.
seems appropriate
correct me if im wrong (i didnt watch the vid, but remember the watching the play live)
but didn't he bounce the ball off the basket his team is defending, thus making it a "defensive rebound"?
What? It's Corky Buchek's famous Bing Bang Song. Everyone knows it!
Classic move by Ricky
Bob Sura did the same thing a few years ago. I think the league then revoked his last rebound, making it a meager double double and nine rebound game.
Ricky Davis should be the first and only person to do it in the NBA. The reason he was not credited with the rebound was not because it was intentional and he was trying to get the triple double, it was because it was not a shot when he shot at his own basket.
A player shooting at his own basket is not a shot. If that shot happens to go in (ie, accidental tip-ins), the opponent closest to the basket gets credit for the FG.
What happened to Bob Sura was that he shot at an opponent's basket and "missed", the league simply said that wasn't even a shot and his sole intention is to grab the "rebound", much like how a player passing off the back board is credited with an assist rather than a missed shot.
move....and yes WTF was up with end of that vid....
best song ever!
anyone else remember anthony bowie doing this, and doug collins making his team stand in the corner? ing priceless.
Thanks Dr. Cox
the look on sloan's face is just priceless.
I don't know it's really weird
also, I think this missed shot was at the Jazz's basket not the Cavs'. Look at how they inbound it and the defense, that is how it looks. I was actually at the game and left early so I didn't see it
not an offensive or defensive rebound..who the shoots at an oppsing players basket.
Ricky Davis did, thats what makes it so funny
