So it's pointless to have 2 good rebounders on the same team? What the hell is your logic here? Noah isn't clogging the lane to get boards. You're making it out like he's boxing Boozer out too. :lmao:
no but having noah in the lane constantly trying to get offensive boards makes it tougher to get boards for boozer...the fact that noah is the better rebounder attracts the defense to make sure he doesn't get on the glass
so technically, he does clog the lane
The majority of Boozer's offensive production is done 15-20ft away from the hoop. I'm too lazy to look up the advanced stats, but all you need to do is watch the Bulls play & you know I'm right.
not 100% sure on the bolded
while boozer does his damage offensively outside the post, is it to say that if another player were to take a shot boozer would be unable to be in adequate position for the offensive board?Is he always 15-20 feet away?
don't you think this is when noah could play a part in boozer not getting the rebound?
though i think the fact that boozer does play outside a bit does affect rebounding, i won't deny it in some aspect
the difference now is that,of course,he isn't the primary rebounder because noah is and the fact that noah does not take his man nearly as far out as okur did
however in light of my first point to this specific response, i think boozer COULD try to crash the offensive boards more knowing that he'd be the primary offensive rebounder, which means after another player takes a shot...as well as looking more to score inside..this is speculation though:shrug:
It's tougher to box out 2 good rebounders than 1. I fail to see how this proves your point.
my fault, i didn't think that one through lol
Yet the "other rebounding post" is "clogging the lane" to get these rebounds? You just contradicted your whole point.
he wouldn't necessarily be if boozer gets more defensive attention if he's the better rebounder
it's not just about what noah does directly...it's also about attracting defense
Boozer got more rebounds in Utah because he was the primary rebounder. He's not that on the Bulls because Noah is.
correct...that's definitely part of it..i never said noah clogging the lane was the absolute reason that boozer got less boards..there are multiple factors
And even Asik gives Noah a run for his money as the best overall rebounder on the team.
valid point, i think omer's ability could help alleviate losing noah, though he isn't technically a starter, that's where getting a guy like drummond would be nice as a starter
With that many good rebounders on 1 team, it's not a surprise that Boozer's numbers would dip, but it has nothing to do with "clogging the lane".
"clogging the lane" is part of it..there are multiple factors..i agree with your overall point
