 Gone Bradley. Best Rebounding season ever. Rozier will basically cover what we lost with Bradley as  far as rebounding, that is currently his best NBA Skill
. Kelly soft as pudding Olynyk was never a great rebounder, neither is Morris so that's a wash.

 Tatum is a 7rpg type talent when he does get the minutes he will be a very good rebounder. Great length, excellent hands and a knack for positioning. Brown also figures to get a spike in minutes and Production. Expect 5rpg from Jaylen this year.

 Zizic is slow and has not looked great. You know what he has not looked like? Small. Dude is huge and the one skill he brings right now is rebounding. He will be a 10  rebounds per 36 guy. If he can get 18 mpg that should be another 5rpg.

 This team is stacked with guys in the 6'7" height range. Hayward and Yabu are two more guys that figure into the rebounding solution as well. 5rpg for Hayward and though Yabu won't get many minutes, he will help when he does play.

 Here is Ainge talking about how it's great to have an awesome center but you don't need one and centers come with a different set of problems.

 They’re both young and from foreign countries and don’t even speak the language perfectly,” Ainge said, “but, yeah, I think they have a chance to add to our rebounding.

“But so do I think, Jaylen (Brown) and Jayson Tatum. I think both of those guys are outstanding rebounders. You know, everyone just assumes rebounding is you go get a center who can rebound and then all your problems are solved. That certainly can help, but a lot of times that creates problems on the other end, unless that guy is really, really skilled. Then you have Shaquille O’Neal or Wilt Chamberlain.

“I like what I saw in Jaylen the second half of last year, and I like what I see in Jayson Tatum. I like what I saw of Jayson even in college, how well he rebounds. Same with Jaylen.”

I really like how Tatum uses his length to cover space on long rebounds. He may not be a banger inside, but he should help out on the boards a little. With so many threes in the game today, there are more long(er) rebounds, so good perimeter rebounders are an asset.

Is Marshall Plumlee worth a look on a training camp contract. I don't remember seeing him...  I saw him in collage and he was pretty good. I haven't heard a thing about him in the NBA... He is 7 foot tall and looks fairly mobile...

Olynyk actually had a very good rebounding rate last year. He's not as soft as people make him out to be

Looks like you nailed it.

Nice call on the player but I am not sure about the good rebounder... Still he is big and should be able to eat up minutes and he is 260.

I think Baynes D may surprise people

Considering his defensive performance, it shouldn’t come as much surprise that he had the second-best on-court defensive rating on the team. The Pistons allowed just 98.5 points per 100 possessions when Baynes was on the floor, but yielded 108.1 points per 100 when he was on the bench.

Baynes was also the best rim protector the Pistons had among all rotational players. Inside 6′, opponents shot 10.7 percent worse than their season average when he was the primary defender.

Per36 he gets over 10, so the rate at which he rebounds is really good, it's just that he never got enough minutes behind Duncan/Drummond.

SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
