Are the Celtics the worst rebounding team in the history of basketball in general. They dont even box out. Its pathetic really.

When are you "too old" to box out?

Down 13 but it may as well be 25. Nuggets barely broke a sweat.

"No show Rondo" has 10 assists at the half though.

Kiorrick, don't you know Rondo has to have 20,20,20 for this team to win.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I got it. You are too old after the trade deadline.

All Rondo could've done was play a bit more D and try to rebound. I doubt, however, that it would've made a dent. The biggest problem is their scoring inside. 13 of their 20 buckets came inside the paint, or rather, at the rim.

We need him to score more, hes the only guy on our team young enough to penetrate and blow by people to get a shot off.

The tnea with the fewest rebounds per game that I can find is the 1995-1996 Cleveland Cavaliers, who went 47-35 with 35.6 rebounds per game with a starting lineup of Terrell Brandon, Chris Mills, Bobby Phills, Danny Ferry, and Michael Cage.  The current Celtics are averaging 38.3 rebounds per game.  The most wins by a team averaging less than 39 rebounds per game were the 97-98 Sonics, with 61 wins and an offense that led the league in 3p%.  They started Vin Baker, Gary Payton, Detlef Schrempf, Hersey Hawkins, and Jim McIlvane, with Dale Ellis, Sam Perkins, Jerome Kersey, and Greg Anthony as their key bench players.

He's 2 of 6. That's 1 miss away from a decent shot percentage, and second on the team in shots taken. I really doubt his alleged passiveness is what makes us lose.

We need bigs. We've lost too many of 'm.

Gallinari flops well.
