Camby's 0 Pts/20 Reb Line Odd, Not Unique

The Nuggets and Lakers certainly produced an odd box score. Beyond Allen Iverson's explosion (as described by our Brett Edwards last night), there's the matter of Marcus Camby, who recorded a brilliant 20 rebounds... but no points. Seems odd? It is -- this would be only the second occurrence of the 'feat' since 1997, as Reggie Evans pulled it off two seasons ago.

If I told you it happened seven times between 1993 and 1997, I bet you could guess the culprit in one try: Dennis Rodman. The peak of The Worm's skewed box scores came in 1993 with the Spurs, when Rodman went for 28 rebounds -- including ten on offense -- without a point. Ten putback opportunities, zero baskets. Camby recorded four offensive boards last night, and went 0-3.

The difference between Camby and Rodman? Denver expects Marcus score; the Spurs and Bulls of the 90s had no such aspirations for Rodman. In one of those 20-rebound, 0-point games, Rodman didn't even record a field goal attempt or free throw try.
