exodus Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Rebounding has been a problem all year and it was highlited by tonight. The hawks were outrebounded by 25. Lebron had 12 rebounds while Smith and Horford combined for 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 The guys on their team know their roles and play them well. Can't say that for our team. Smoove plays way too much away from the basket. A well discussed issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankWhite Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 The team lacks in fundamentals. You can see when the ball is in the air, rarely if ever does anyone on the Hawks move. It's like they wait to see how the ball is going to go off the rim instead of putting a body on the other team's rebounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNorthCydeRises Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 The team lacks in fundamentals. You can see when the ball is in the air, rarely if ever does anyone on the Hawks move. It's like they wait to see how the ball is going to go off the rim instead of putting a body on the other team's rebounders. You can definitely see that if you're at a game live. I was there last night, and it was ridiculous the amount of rebounds we didn't get. - Horfort boxes out, most of the time - Zaza only does it, if a man is leaning up against him - Smoove and Marvin never do it, strictly relying on their jumping ability to get the rebound. - None of the guards do it, if they happen to be around the lane.

Dakin Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Josh smith has turned into the least physical player in the league. Is he trying to block shots or pat the guy on the back, I can't tell. And he couldn't box out my grandmother for a rebound. 'OMG, I'm open, I better shoot it, now!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankWhite Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 - Horfort boxes out, most of the time Al is our smartest player, by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 I'm really stunned that there have not been more guys who looked at how Rodman made millions by playing such an important role. He rebounded and did the other things that made his team better and other guys who aren't stars could take a page from his book and have a decent career.
