Oddly enough it seems like it started when Rip Hamilton went out or i'm imagining things. Does Rip Hamilton really affect our rebounding?  |
I agree.
No, I don`t think Rip affects our rebounding. Not playing smart, not boxing out, not attacking the glass as agressively as they shoot 3`s sometimes, affects our rebounding.
If the Pistons don`t recognize and fix this by playoff time it could spell disaster. Between Flip, Cowens, Porter and Ron Harper, you mean to tell me nobody can address this problem? Tonight for example, Kidd grabbed his eight rebounds (his avg) and Tay pulled down eight rebounds (three above his avg). Our bigs C-Webb and Sheed
avg seven boards a game!!
When each possession is crucial,and offensive rebounding is a must to continue playing, we might be found wanting come May and June....
