Rebounding

McD needs to hire me to teach this team how to rebound. This is just **** poor and has been for his tenure. I am 6ft and could rebound then our big men...

They are not physical at all. It doesnt look like they want to be.

This!

It makes me sick watching them LET rebounds get away.

What's the point of rebounding? As long as we score on 90% of our possessions we should be ok.

Aggreed, Brackins should be averaging like 12 rpg.

A lot of rebounding is effort and there is also some instinct. Which are we lacking? My thoughts are both...

I think our guys are worried about getting out and running.

They're not taking enough pride in defense and rebounding.

**cyclonenate** · 12-05-2009, 11:01 PM

Well, we are giving them to many ******* offensive rebounds

**Wesley** · 12-05-2009, 11:01 PM

Our little guys are worthless at rebounding also.

I'd say that this is it. They need to learn to treasure the ball and making stops, and then get out and run. Play defense and rebound, you can make some nice opportunities to run.

They really like to watch shots go up. Like watching pretty fireworks or something. Crash the frickin' board! Block out!

If I was GMac, I'd make all 5 on the floor hit the boards every time. Notice how they'll all gladly run down the floor when we go in transition, but when it's just a board, someone else will get it. They can hustle in transition, why not to the boards?

Shot goes up, you put your *** on somebody. I wouldn't care if we had all 5 guys boxing out the same guy. One more guy than is getting boxed out now.
