Looking at NBA boxscores I notice there is a stat called team rebounds. It usually sits below the team's total number of rebounds and most teams seem to have about 9 or 10 per game. Can someone please explain exactly what this is?

It's where they all go up and tip it and a couple of people get their hands to it and it ends up sprawling to someone off a bounce or something, its a rebound but you can't really call it one specific players' rebound, so its a team rebound.

3 - this is in a situation where a shot goes up, no one player controls the ball, and goes out of court. The team that gets possession (the computer recognises this by the next entry, either a shot or turnover or foul etc), get the team rebound. More common than one would think.
If you would the definition of either the assist, or team rebound, let me know, and i'll post some extracts from the protocol.
ELG - close, you were half right. A rebound goes to the first player to control the ball after a shot.
Can someone explain assists-when is an assist not an assist?
