Moses Malone got a lot of offensive "Rebounds" by "shooting" (often tipping) the ball of the glass to himself to gain better position.
I tried passing it off the glass on a 2-1 fastbreak to my teammate running up behind me. Hit it too hard and bounced straight into half court.
For me its a travel.. as it's counted as passing to yourself. I think that's the FIBA rules, such a killjoy rule (who doesn't enjoy a good glass pass)
That's not necessarily true... it may depend on the scorekeeper, but they definitely gave CP3 an assist on an off-the-backboard pass for a DeAndre Jordan dunk on a wide open fast break. Warriors @ Clippers on Jan 5. It was one of the following 3 plays from the 3rd quarter of that game. I remember specifically wondering at that moment how they would score it, so I looked it up right away and sure enough, it was an assist. 5:11 56-90 DeAndre Jordan makes two point shot (Chris Paul assists) 4:54 56-92 DeAndre Jordan makes two point shot (Chris Paul assists) 4:26 56-94 DeAndre Jordan makes two point shot (Chris Paul assists)
^^^ Didn't realize you may have been talking about self-passes off the glass... if so, then disregard the above.
