We cannot isolate rebounding and ignore that it comes in a package that simply cannot stay on the floor in the modern NBA. That´s the logic that lead to the McGee signing. Mavs lack rim protection. Lets add a shot blocker.
Like somebody that averaged 1.3 BPG in 12 MPG last season. His on/off over his last 1000 NBA minutes is around + 4.5.
I also know that the solution to our defensive problems is to sign Jarrett Allen, Jaylen Brown and Evan Mobley, but maybe those players are not available and you work with what is available. One aspect of defense is physical fitness, speed and effort. Something you usually do not get from 37 years old that have been retired from basketball for the last 12 months.
