Thrilled that the Cavs split without Love and JR. Hope Shump is good to go.


Come home tied 2-2 and we're in great shape.

TT is the best offensive rebounder in the league and is getting more minutes than usual. That combined with the softness of pau and the lack of health for Noah.. I'm not surprised.

It's weird to think Noah was #3 in MVP voting a couple of years ago. Dude has been a non factor

IT was last year lol. He'll be fine next season. The recovery from knee surgery didn't go well before the season began and everyone inside the Bulls organization expected this type of season from him.

It's a known fact man. Dude is top 5 in the league in offensive rebounding (stats wise).

The other guys in the top 5 are all centers and are starters.

TT doesn't start. Plays less minutes then the 4 other guys above him and is only 6'9.

I guess I'll change my statement for you. He's a top 5 offensive rebounder in the league and the best offensive rebounding PF and off the bench

Right now he's 3rd in Offensive rebounds per game in the playoffs while playing less minutes than the guys above him.

He is. But it helps to have no offensive load. He isn't even trying to get open. He's just trying to get in rebounding position. And your best post defenders are usually the best rebounders. He is rarely guarded by the best defensive rebounder on the floor.

Just for the record, Griffin was 3rd last year.

Noah without Thibs next year-I'll be interested to see how he is utilized under The Mayor.

His MVP standing last season was possibly the most overrated MVP ranking I've ever seen.

True that. Dude averaged like 12\10\5

I guess it was just a nice little pat on the back for caring a D Rose-less team to a playoff birth and being a good defender.

Apologies. Thompson is the best offensive rebounder on a playoff team. I love Drummond. The Rockets tried to trade up for him. And clearly, it would have been a good decision.

I can't believe the butthurt that occurred in this thread over a simple comment lol.

Sorry a guy coming off the bench for a playoff team is only top 5 offensive rebounder in the league and not #1

Hopefully the basketball gods can forgive me!
