Do we even have anybody that rebounds anymore?

Not that we ever had a really good specialist in that area to begin with (Danny, do something!) but at least we had something going with Sully.  The guy was great for us on boards.  Rondo was also a very good rebounder.  Rondo went down and we was still riding high with Sully and now he's gone too (for the season). 

Bass has done somewhat a decent job the past two games but I can't rely on someone that's been atrocious all season just because he had two decent rebounding games. 

Remember when we beat the Heat, we had Sully.  How much impact would that have when we face them on Monday. 

PS:  The Heat is going to be coming off of back-to-back games but this is a team that has Lebron and will be on 22 games winning streak when we meet.  So it doesn't matter if they're coming off of B2B, they can still hand us our behind on anyday.  Man, I hope we show up.

Are you actually worried about rebounds or are you more scared of the heat beating us?

We've been terrible at rebounding for quite a while now. It's a result of the system that doc implements and also our personnel. Sully was amazing for that before he went down, and that was really unfortunate. Now doc has really been forced to go small anyway.

There isn't much that can be done at this point but enjoy the speed of the smallball.

It was hugely unfortunate to loose our two best rebounders in back to back games but we haven't been a good rebounding team for many years.
