If we don't control the boards it's going to be tough to win. The Cavs are a very good rebounding team. The best thing to do is to keep Scal off the floor and play someone (Powe or Baby) that can rebound the damn ball. I don't like to hate on Scal, because he's a good teammate, but he's terrible and I can't stand watching him play.

Cavs were a better rebounding team then us somehow when we had KG.
Now that we have air ball Scal in the line-up offensive rebounds could be close.
Grampa Ray always does well after a 3 day rest though, so this one should be competitive.
I hope Doc realizes the rebounding issue and plays Baby+ Powe and not Posey at PF.
Is there ever a game that were going to play where we can actually expect Pollard to play? We could use his size at the C spot ohhh every game but he seems to always be injured.

Please explain to me how we could be a better offensive rebounding team with Scal as opposed to KG?

The last time these two teams played it was one of the most exciting games of the season.
Big Baby!
The last time we played them, they were with out LBJ and the Celtics played like they took sleeping pills. I was at the game. It sucked. but a w's a w.
