Rebounds in the SF position DROP ??!!

Am I the only one surprised to see that Artest gets fewer rebounds than Peja?

He is strong, fast and tough, I'd expect more than 4.5 boards from him. I know he has (had ) JO on his team, so there is less "left overs" for the wing players, but still--- that was one of the biggest rips on peja around these parts.

As long as D and heart go up, I'll be alright with it. We can still score at a decent clip and offensively Peja and Artest are a wash. Defensively, Artest whoops Peja so badly. I don't know the dynamic with Artest, but I hope he plays and I hope he........................doesn't do anything stupid ^^.

That was on a team with actual good rebounders though (IE O'Neal, Foster)

Artest will average 6-7 a game for us.

But the Pacers also had JO and Foster. Two GREAT rebounders... Not much rebounding to go around after those two...

Bonzi and Artest will pull 15 to 20 boards a game for us

Provided Artest does not run AWAY from the ball look for his rebounding numbers to take a jump. It's not like he will have a lot of teammates in his way on the way to the ball.
