Chris Bosh leads the Heat in rebounding with 5.7 per game

[Micku]

To be fair guys, he's only playing 28.6 minutes a game. What do you expect for him to do with that type of minutes? Average 10 rebounds? He's not that type of player obviously, and he could average about 7-8 given 36 minutes (normal starter minutes).

[red1]

In any other system he is good for 9-11 rebounds. The heat place him away from the basket, of course you are going to have less rebounds that way

[kamil]

Riiiiiight.

Just like they weren't going to win back-to-back last year?

Just like they were supposed to win in 2010?

I'm not hating on Bosh. It's just remarkable that their leading rebounder is rebounding at a rate so low.

the Heat going to need someone to step up regardless.

what u said had nothing to do with the Heat being a poor defensive rebounding team.

[Young X]

Chris Paul currently averages 5.2 rebounds.

Westbrook averages 5.3.

Both under 6-3.

To be honest, the defensive system the Heat play is not good for defensive rebounding, as players are often out of position etc.

To be fair and to add to the truth of what red1 said, there's a certain someone on Bosh's team who lets say sometimes unnecessarily goes after rebounds that are already in perfect position to be handled by his team.

Which leads to a few less rebounds per game for Bosh even when he's in the right positions to grab them
