Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4319203, member: 5798"] Coco, I’m beginning to think some foks don’t really understand or embrace the importance of rebounding. I’ll remind our Boneyard (BY) brethren once again what former Laker head coach Pat Riley said during the LA Lakers’ “showtime era” run of winning championships. He said: “no rebounds, no rings.” Each rebound your opponent gets is another chance to score, and a possible chance that you don't. NO TEAM can continuously allow an opponent to out rebound them by a wide margin and expect or hope to win. :confused: Same thing with free throws. You can’t send your opponent to the line 10-12 times more than they send you and except to win. Especially in close games. When you play teams like South Carolina (Aliyah Boston) or DePaul (Aneesah Morrow) that have rebounding machines on their roster, you’d better have a plan to neutralize them, or slow them down. ;) [/QUOTE]
