The Cowboys need to recruit a couple of bigs that have no problem playing under the basket. Seems every team we play has at least one kid who loves contact and will fight for boards. I miss the likes of Leckner, Garnett, Slater, Theo, etc.

It isn’t just a Shyatt/Edwards thing:

In the age of advanced analytics, the trend has been that, statistically, the benefits transition defense trump the benefits of offensive rebounds.

I’m sure that differs from team to team. If I had to guess, I’d guess that if we crashed boards with our not-so-bully personnel, we wouldn’t come up with many anyway and would end up in a bad spot defensively more often than not.

With Shyatt’s teams, the offensive rebounding would probably have had more success than this squad, but he still emphasized getting back.

Insane! Our next coach better preach that. Absolutely mind blowing we don’t crash the boards

...none of our guys on the blocks during OPPONENT free throws?

You sure about that?

I think if that happened, it would've gone viral.
