Just looking at numbers, heading back to last season we have allowed to have monster games to the leagues top big man's.
Capela had 23+16 game against us,
Rudy Gobert 19+15 game,
Steven Adams with 20+23 game,
LaMarcus Aldridge with 15+18 game,
Hassan Whiteside with 16+24+6 game,
DeAndre Jordan 8+23 game,
Anthony Davis 26+17 game,
Karl Anthony Towns 39+19 game.
And now Nurkic with 20+20 game
The stat is we are 12-4 when we outrebounded our opponents, so that means 7-14 when we are getting outrebounded.
Does it hurts us that Bagley has been out? Absolutely, but still it kinda gives us a big picture that if we are outrebounded in a game, the chances of winning the game is getting slimmer, and the sample size is not that small the trends in the record are slowly showing it.
