" Two of the NBA's top rebounding teams from last season (Lakers and Thunder) did not have a player who averaged double-figures in rebounding. In fact, there wasn't even one player on any of those teams in the top 10 in rebounding in the NBA."

Exactly, when you have a team rebounding focus, you can be a solid rebounding team without a David Lee. David Lee got 13 rebounds per game, because nobody else was bothering to rebound. We have guys on this team that can rebound. I don't think rebounding will be a problem next year.

We don't have dominant rebounders although AR and Amare aren't far off. But the none of guys who will play up front are weak rebounders. So, it will work out.

Turiaf is not a great rebounder, but he is not a bad rebounder either. Between him and Amare, along with solid rebounders for their position in Chandler and Felton, we should be fine.
I agree. I think Lee benefitted from D'Antoni's choosing to go with a small line up and being the big that set the pick for the pick and roll offense/system. I think Amare, Turiaf, Randolph will more than make up for Lee's rebounding.
