That was not even close, by the way. That was a terrible guess.
I googled, has Caleb Houston ever dunked? In the AI overview, I googled He says, yes, he has dunked the ball. On July 10th, 2023, Bleacher Report posted a video of Houston performing a dunk. So that was in the summer. When the only recollection of you dunking a basketball is in July, that's bad news. It's a big problem.
So I, I've been covering the team since 2012, 2013 and, I don't know if anybody that I've covered has ever averaged double-digit rebounds.
Al Horford probably hasn't. He's never been a super high rebound total guy. Yeah. These are going to be long answers for me because I've got to properly do this. I've got to beat the cheat is what I have to do. Beat the cheat.
The one who might have had a chance is Jared Sullinger, who was an absolute rebound machine when he was playing a lot. Yeah. They had Chris Humphreys, too, but he probably didn't play enough. He was a rebound destroyer. Chris Humphreys! I definitely don't think Kelly Olenek ever did it. Couldn't have. The bigs lately, like Chris Stapps didn't get there last year.
I'm going to go Kevin Garnett was the last one to do it.
9.2 in the first season. Wow. So close.
I'm going to go five.
So the obvious answer is LeBron, but I feel like nine might have been like a little too high there. Yeah. Like he was always like 27, eight and eight. Right. Yeah. It could be. But who else would average numbers like that? Nobody. Maybe Russ. Russ or LeBron? I have to lean LeBron. I know this is going to be wrong, but maybe it's right, but also it's probably wrong.
Okay, so that's your final answer. LeBron is my answer.
I knew it. He never got to nine. He didn't get to nine enough.
Jokic would have been my third guess. Giannis. What was I thinking?
LeBron never got to nine. Why would I say LeBron if he didn't get to nine?
LeBron, by the way, has never gotten to nine rebounds.
Not once has he done that. I guess a guy who has literally averaged right below 27-9-5 every year of his life, but has never done it. Let's see.
Yeah, a lot of the time he didn't have the points. Wow. That's surprising.
It's absolutely not transition defense. I mean, transition offense. Absolutely not transition offense because they are bad at transition offense and have typically been pretty bad at transition offense lately. I'm going to go. So my two answers left are transition defense and what?
And I will tell you, it is one of those... I'm going to go... Well, I know it's one of those. I'm going to go with half-court defense is their biggest improvement.
But transition defense is their biggest improvement.
That makes sense because Chris Sass missed a lot of time. Transition defense might be better without the 7'3 guy. But Joe was complaining about their transition defense the other day, and that stuck with me. How do I not know that? How do I not know that? Andrew, the board is yours.
