Change in the starting lineup.. Tyler Zeller replaces amir . In hopes of getting more rebounds.. Yes rebounds matter now the season starts.. But we let our best rebounder go to a division rival.

We didn't let him go so much as they were the only ones interested in him which is why all he got was a 1 year 6 mil deal and is now out for 3 months..I don't really see how he'd have helped. He wasn't exactly a double digit rebounder. I don't think we should view this based on one stat and its too early to make rash judgments. Last thing we need is to make a bad trade that kills off our future. Plus meaningless rebounding stats is the equivalent of having a David Lee or Enes Kanter or Kevin Love...great rebound stats but poor defense.

If you think Zeller is an upgrade over Amir on the boards (as far as fighting for rebounds in traffic), then I think we're watching different players. What I think we'll start seeing is Avery Bradley and IT crashing the boards more. Rebounding help will need to come from the guards.

Having Marcus back will help as he is a good rebounder for a guard, as is Terry Rozier. The bottom line is that much of rebounding is about effort and desire. Every player needs to be more aggressive going after rebounds and needs to box out to keep the opponents off the boards.

Zeller is terrible on the boards. Really bad. I would like to see Mickey get those minutes. Amir might be hurt already, he was a different player in game 1 and only got 16 minutes.

REBOUNDING IS DEFENSE! Amir maybe hurt.. I am not a fan of his.. And I think I have stated my disdain for Zeller.. lol..
Management created a soft team....They chose to draft a abundance of tweener guards. That's the issue
