Toppin had 5 boards in 21 minutes. With exception to Spicey-P, our frontcourt has to rebound better!

I’m repeating this statement on a few threads, but this is due to Brunson and the difficulty in guarding him 1:1. He bullies his way to the paint, the big comes up and screens causing a switch, Brunson does a step back jumper, defenders are in a poor position to rebound now and if he misses their big is in the best position to get the offensive rebound due to his soft touch. They do it most possessions down the court and nearly always when they need a basket. It is what it is. Need to be better at defending him and fighting through screens.
