    Now this record will be very difficult to break, it's difficult to get 30 rebounds in a game and then you gotta try to double that

    is there any actuall footage of this guy he has a lot of records but i have never seen him play. That is crazy I can't even get 50 rebound in a video game.

    That's a tough one, perhaps one day when all the players of both teams have a tremendous hangover, and the sober player(designated driver) lol gets 56 rebounds to break it!

    haha no but really, that would be extremely hard, you never know, but I say most likely not....unless a series of unexplainable events happen in a game.

    NO

    I voted no as well...we get all hyped up and excited when Dwight Howard has a 20+ rebound night...he'd need 2.5x or more to match Wilt...so could it happen? Sure...and Ndubi Ebi could be the next Michael Jordan...so, in all likelihood, I don't think it will happen.

    No. Back in Wilt's day, not only did teams take more shots, but the field percentages were lower as well. The style of the game has changed too much for this to happen. Again, it would take drastic rule changes for this to be broken. The game as it is currently played does not allow for these kinds of rebounding numbers now.
