Defensive rate .755

Anything over 1 is better then average. The knicks have been rebounding better recently but even early in the year they weren't nearly as bad as commentators (Barkley) were making them out to be. They have a positive TO differential - so they take more shots then there opponents - they take a lot of threes so they miss a higher percentage of there shots. The defense rebounding rate in the league is around 75%. If you have less turn overs then your opponent and take more threes then your opponent then your opponent is going to have more defensive rebound opportunities and you're going to get out rebounded most of the time. The important numbers are you defensive and offensive rebounding rates and the Knick's are good now and weren't terrible at any point this year.
