I glanced over the box score, last night and I think Kurt Thomas at the time had maybe 13pt's and 2 Reb's in 24 minutes? While I would love to see Kurt's scoring in that ballpark, I cannot say I'm happy with the rebounding effort. We will need 2 bigs dominating all aspects of the paint when if we will face Phx, or LA in the post season (ESPECIALLY if Bynum is back and healthy). I do like the prospect of having KT defend Amare and Gasol to take some of the pressure off of Timmah.

^ Nah it wasn't that bad actually, TD was a monster on the boards last night and ripped a bunch from Kurt. Kurt was only ever in with Duncan so it hurt his rebounding alot, however his offense was really solid, especially at the start of the game. He had 8 points in like 5 minutes.

Kurt also did alot of tapping out or hustling to knock loose balls away from Denvers bigs and got into foul trouble by doing so. I'm sure if he got alot of those boards he would of had 10+ easily.

Well they may of thought it was getting chippy so decided to call it closer.

Yeah, I'm definitely not worried about KT's rebounding. Easily the best big man on the boards we've had since Admiral.
