The Warriors are currently the third-best rebounding team in the league despite a constant size disparity and no league leaders in the category. “If you watch tape, Andre Iguodala boxes out every single possession,” Kerr said. “Otto Porter boxes out every single possession.

I just think we have a veteran group who understands if you plug all the leaks, you can keep that shell tight defensively and don’t worry about who is going to get the rebound. You can do it as a team, collectively.”
