Gotta work on rebounding.

Boxing out. A lost art. And also a great way to get in guys heads. Shot up, you find a body and back up against it. So foreign - players think they are fouled or go over the back. I have pissed off sooo many guys boxing out in pick up games.
they could have have drawn some needed early fouls in first half by bodying up.

Boxing out is the first responsibility. Getting the actual rebound is second
Did you have the old defensive rebounding drill where you had 4 players on defense and six on offense chasing intentionally missed shots?
The best rebound is one that bounces. Means everybody bodied up and you could collapse on the ball.
One guy boxes, advantage. Three or four get bodies on bodies then easy to sweep the board.
Our problem was other team had position because we didn’t secure the space under the basket.
No but similar was coach would throw up the ball with 3D 2O or 4D 3O. Intent was to find a body with shot up - and we did emphasize calling out the jump shot.
Few teams crash four to the O boards. If you don’t get that board, lots of easy fast breaks. And if we had more success, we could have run their bigs onto the bench or into tired foul trouble - kinda like we did in stretches of the second half. Those big guys running back and forth consecutively wear down fast.
