Back in the day, Rebounding was exemplified by a Bill Russell or Dave Cowens snatching a ball well above the rim and the crowd. Wily workers of the offensive backboard like a Silas or Rodman would grind their way to optimal position for follow-ups. The “work” took place in and around what we now call the “restricted area” (not to be confused with Hubie Brown’s “painted area”).
Nowadays, when about one in three FG attempts is being launched from what they then called the “hinterlands,” a missed shot is just as likely to initiate a scramble rather than a scrum … and this team that Danny re-built is proving to be rather proficient at that little component of play.
