1 0:38 14 — 21 T. Davis (A) fires an off-balance jumper from the wing under pressure from D. Vargas Peña (H). Shot blocked.
1 0:38 14 — 21 The ball bounces off the top of the backboard and goes out of bounds.
1 0:26 14 — 21 T. Faivre (H) goes up with the fade-away

Basically, Team A shoots the ball, it gets blocked, but goes off the backboard and out of bounds, meaning Team A should get the ball back since Team B touched it last. But Team B received the ball. Either that or the Shot Blocked was an error and it wasn't actually blocked.

The bit I bolded is just flavor text to say that nobody got a rebound. It's confusing, for certain, and I wouldn't mind seeing that particular line removed.

If, instead of that line, it had said "Both rebounders back off, but the referee rules that [XXX] touched the ball last", would you have thought it a bug?

But it is a bug since it does say who touched it last. It says the shot was blocked, meaning the other team touched it last before it went out of bounds, yet they still got the ball.

No, it's flavor text. Just because someone blocked a shot, doesn't mean he was the last to touch the ball before it went out of bounds.

Yes, it's confusing, and it shouldn't be that way, but a lot of these "nobody gets a rebound" lines are new still need to have their kinks ironed out a bit.

Ah, I see. Just pbp oddities instead of an actual change of possession bug.
