Mark Daigneault on Nurkic and matchups like him: “A lot of nights we lose the rebounding battle. And as long as the benefit continues to outweigh the cost, we’re going to continue to accept the trade offs. We’re not going to be a perfect team.
“At the end of the day, there’s more to the game than just rebounding. … If we try to solve every problem, then we’re gonna be trying to chase our shadow.”

He is right. If he tries to fix the rebounding problem with our current cast. We are going to lose in other areas we excel at.
This strategy works when we win the turnover battle. Protect the rock, and pick pockets ⚡️
guess i gotta restart my heart medications
Even though it is a glaring weakness for the playoffs, he is right. Even if team changes their gameplan for playoffs other teams can still abuse another weakness, in the end playoffs are a game of who can counter their opponent better. We are playing our own game and we are first in the west rn. We will see what adjustments Mark will make in playoffs.
And another thing to remember, our previous coaches were so awful that despite having superior teams, we didn’t make it out of 1st round for consecutive years because bum ass Billy Donovan didn’t know how to adjust in playoff series and only knew WB and PG hero ball. But on the opposite end of spectrum Mark managed to go to game 7 against Houston with far weaker team. I trust Mark to do what is best for the team in playoffs
I’ll type this: I thought Bismack was going to stop that bleeding yet Nurkic was still clowning. So shit, what is Bismack going to do that Kenny and Co can’t???
(I’d be lying if I stated I was familiar with Bismack’s game)
I still feel like we can continue to win the at turnovers and improve our rebounding by adding a legit power forward to the starting line up.
