the code that averages rebounds is incorrect

the problem with the rebounds is that the math in the code isnt correct.
the total number of rebounds at the end of the game in the box score will differ from when you look at the team comparison box score once you leave the game. look at the box score of your game from the calendar. they will be different.
the rebound numbers its usually off by what ever number of offensive rebound a team has.

so i think the offensive rebounds is being added to the equation twice.

for instance:
box score at the end of the game says defensive rebound 40, offensive rebound 8 giving you a total of 48

now when you go look at the box score from the calendar the rebounds number will be 56. or it could be adding 10 the number.
so who ever coded the game did the average wrong for total rebounds.
I think the offensive rebound variable is in the team comparison variable twice.
the team comparison totals variable is what I believe they use for all the stats in the team stats variable.
I believe that's where the error is. the code that averages rebounds is incorrect.

if you all want you can take a look and try to confirm or refute this.

Re: the code that averages rebounds is incorrect

Youre definitely right. I noticed this too....it looks to be a combo of this and maybe the 4 or 5 balls that normally get tipped out of bounds on reb attempts per team irl not being accounted for. I think someone mentioned the latter in another thread somewhere

Shots that end up out of bounds, without either team controlling, go on the stat sheet as "Team Rebounds" in real life. I believe a missed technical free throw also goes into the stat sheet as a Team Rebound, but I'd have to check on that. I've never looked closely, but I don't believe 2K displays this stat in the game. If the game is actually keeping track of these team rebounds, but just not displaying it, that may account for the rebound discrepancies the OP is seeing.

This would be my guess, but I've never looked that close. I may keep track of team rebounds myself for a few games and see if that accounts for the rebounding total differences.

Yes, they get recorded as a 'team rebound' in the play-by-play and recorded in the box score as a separate statistic, but if you're looking at a team's total stats for a season, the rebounds we see are always equal to the total of the players' rebounds, it's been that way for several decades. Explanation within: Stat Questions: Why Do Pre-1970s Team Rebound Totals Not Match the Sums of Individual Players?

If the Team Comparison screen is counting Team rebounds in the rebound totals, then that is incorrect and should be changed.

P.S. Not only are missed technical free throws counted as team rebounds, but also a missed first of a pair of free throws as well. Where it gets really tricky are so called 'dead ball rebounds' which are rebounds counted following a missed shot when the game clock expires.

Re: the code that averages rebounds is incorrect

I wonder if this has something to do with the commentators always getting my rebounds and assists wrong. Lets say I get my 5th rebound or assist and the commentators will say I have 4

Re: the code that averages rebounds is incorrect

Might be unrelated but I noticed in 2K, they count a recovered block as a rebound. Do they do this in real life?
