I don't even really hold that against bigs all the time, but when your whole bag is "traditional, big, physical center" I think rebounding kind of needs to be part of your package. He's a very good offensive rebounder, to be fair.
I started by asking Gemini if there was a correlation between blocked shots and defensive rebounds. Yep.
If a player is aggressively trying to block shots, he’s less likely to get the defensive rebound.
Do blocks matter?
Nice analysis:
