The rebound count might be the wrong scoreboard to watch in Cairns–Brisbane. Cairns just beat Melbourne while losing the glass, and Brisbane lost to Tasmania while winning it. If Cairns keeps disrupting the ball, Brisbane’s extra rebounds may buy back possessions it already gave away; if Brisbane takes care of the ball, Cairns has to find another way to end defensive trips. I’m curious which team turns its stops into actual shots.
