Yeah, no kidding. Had a good feeling about this one, but then they come out and pull a repeat of the Knicks performance, minus the offense in the 1st half. Why can't they rebound? Kedrick 2 rebs. in 20 min., Baker 5 in 36 (only 3 defensive), Blount zero(!) in 17. How do you not get a single rebound at 7 feet tall? They just have no idea how to box out and control an area. Their idea of rebounding is outjumping the other guy(s). With smart, experienced big guys like PJ, Kurt Thomas, and Magloire that doesn't work. The defense and the fronting doesn't help the cause, and the energy expended on defense goes to waste anyway with all the second-, third-, and fourth chances that the other team is getting.
Oh well, at least Banks is looking better these days, but otherwise the offense is as constipated as ever. Pierce showed better decision-making, but no one else stepped up on offense. I don't know why Baker took so few shots.
We're missing LaFrentz's skill and rebounding, too. I wish they'd put the useless Waltuh on the IL, activate Hunter, and tell him to go get every rebound. Maybe he could teach the BBBB boys a thing or two about rebounding.
