haha Yah your right if your in contract year you should be even going after your owns players rebounds. The bottom line is that Splitter is not very good and Diaw plays like a PG midget. To me I would roll the dice and try and do a trade and throw out everyone names excepts..Timmy/Manu/Kawhi/Tony. I would even trade Manu but he has done so much for us that we have to keep him and I understand that.
Raptors with 17 offense rebs
TD 41 minutes - 5rebs
Blair - 16 minutes - 4rebs
Bonner 6 minutes - 1 reb
Tiago 21 minutes - 5rebs
Diaw 34 minutes - 4 rebs
Props to the guards: Green with 9, Neal and Manu with 7, Tony with 6
duncans first 4 rebs came in the 1st quarter, the 5th reb came in the 3rd quarter...fkn pathetic team performance on the boards tonight, no fkn effort at all...guys just standing there hoping the ball would drop into their hands....
Yet they won, so you should move on and think about some more quality threads to start.
ur an idiot u dont think we have a rebounding problem
spurs trade for ed davis/amir johnson/john henson/epke udoh/darrel arthur/dontas montejuenas/pattrick patterson
id take any one of those
spurs all have assests those teams could use
specifically shooters like neal
seems like they dont bother jumping when going up against athletic teams
fkn ed davis destroyed us on the boards tonight....
w/o KL and Jax our rebounding issue is blatant... this is bad like really bad
You can't make lemonade without lemons and you can't rebound the basketball without rebounders. The bad news is the Spurs DON'T have rebounders. However, the good news is the Spurs have Nando De Colo.
Bump.
After 11 games, when this thread was made, Spurs were 23rd in defensive rebounding with 71.3%.
Right now, after 25 games played, Spurs are 10th in defensive rebounding with 74%.
Even if they have been likely a little helped by facing relatively poor offensive rebounding teams like the Celtics, it looks like Spurs defensive rebounding issues have been solved. Kawhi being back should help Spurs getting better in that area.
Good notice Bruno
Accept for injuries it seems like the spurs community have good news starting the season.
Of course the big problem will always be a personnel that can lead to a championship /lack of froncourt or killer player once manu was/
Hopefully with some healthy 3s we can get back to a Top 3 defensive rebounding team.
I wonder if any of the bigs have made a significant contribution to the rebounding increase... besides Bonner, of course. For a 3-4 game stretch there he was grabbing boards like crazy. Apparently his juevos have gone missing again, or maybe he's not getting any? Blair needs to throw one of his exes the Red Rockets way, but that'll add back some inches to his vertical.
Compared to their defensive rebounding rates in the first post:I wonder if any of the bigs have made a significant contribution to the rebounding increase... besides Bonner, of course.

Duncan and Diaw are about the same.
Blair has fallen off, and so have his minutes.
Splitter and Bonner have seen significant increases.
Here's a quick update. The first chart shows improvements for team rebounding percentage when the player is on the court. The second chart is individual improvements in terms of defensive rebounding per 40 minutes. The first column is the first 12 games (when this thread was originally made), with the second column being the subsequent 13 games.
As you suggested, Bonner has improved his rebounding tremendously. Splitter has also stepped it up. Another key has been big improvements from the guards. On the other end of the spectrum, it's discouraging that Diaw seems to have regressed even more.
