If they somehow could have kept him it would have been HUGE imo. Rebounder and inside scorer. Seems to be one of their weaknesses, rebounding

I'm not sure yet if rebounding is a weakness or if it is, how much.

Last night, they were outrebounded 54-46. They were outrebounded on the offensive glass 14-8.

Some of the discrepancy on the offensive boards came from the fact that the Lakers shot almost 50% compared to the Blazers almost 45%. So there were fewer offensive rebounding opportunities. They were also only outrebounded by 2 on the defensive glass.

Having said that, there were also a few times where it was obvious that their lack of size was hurting them. So I can see where rebounding could become a problem down the road.
