Henry Ellenson, when he does get rebounds, often seems to get the "easier" ones, which may stem from a combination of his role on the court and his skillset. He's generally a stretch big with solid offensive potential but isn't typically known for being a bruiser in the paint. Here are a few reasons why he might be getting more of the easier rebounds:

Positioning: Ellenson may be more adept at positioning himself to grab uncontested rebounds rather than battling in the crowded, more physical areas around the rim. This could be a result of awareness or simply not being asked to fight for every rebound.
Shot Selection and Misses: Often, when a player like Ellenson is involved in stretch-forward or center roles, their teammates might be taking shots that don't miss in the way that puts the ball in the mix for aggressive, contested boards. He could be getting the ones that are more predictable in terms of angle or trajectory.
Defensive Responsibilities: Ellenson's defensive focus may not always be on grabbing every board; his attention might be on guarding out on the perimeter or covering a larger offensive role, meaning he's in a position to get the simpler rebounds, rather than contesting every missed shot.
Lack of Physicality: He's not the most physically imposing player in terms of size or strength compared to other bigs. This could mean that in more crowded rebounding situations, he might not be able to muscle his way in for contested boards, and instead, gets the ones that come his way in less contested scenarios.
Overall, his role and the specific demands of his position might explain why he often gets the easier rebounds. When you're not a primary rim protector or dominant rebounder, you might not have to fight for every board, and that can create a perception of him grabbing easier rebounds.

Quote from: rocky_warrior on January 05, 2025, 09:02:37 PMAlright, I'm done. This forum is officially the worst. I came here looking for some decent conversation, maybe a few laughs, and instead, I've been subjected to an endless barrage of negativity, toxicity, and frankly, just plain stupidity.

Every thread is a dumpster fire of whining, complaining, and people desperately seeking validation for their mediocre opinions. The "humor" here consists of tired memes, inside jokes that nobody else understands, and an unhealthy obsession with grammar Nazis. I swear, if I see one more comment about someone's misplaced apostrophy, I'm going to lose my mind.

So, I'm officially quitting. I'm going to go find a forum where people can actually have a civil conversation without resorting to personal attacks and passive-aggressive insults. I'll be back tomorrow, though. Maybe by then, the collective IQ of this place will have miraculously risen by at least 10 points.

(That's AI written based on "Can you write up a funny 3 paragraph rage quite of a internet forum, refusing to ever come back, until the next day?".  I'll be damned if they didn't nail the meat stick ball licker knower complaints.  They are a living meme!)

Are you quitting because of the AI generated Cavalier/Dayton images?

Quote from: TallTitan34 on January 06, 2025, 09:43:38 AMI actually discovered the place I use to host muoverload.com has a forum add-on I was playing around with for a few minutes.

muoverload.com/forum

I have no desire to moderate a forum, nor do I have the knowledge of how to maintain one.


Don't worry, this place still exists after 20 years with similar maintenance  ;D
