Message: [QUOTE="jordoo, post: 1205517, member: 569"] Its certainly a built in weakness of the zone but some of our teams do a better job than others do. Usually we have good rebounding guards when we have our better defensive rebounding teams. They can help out a lot by doing a couple of things. Pursuing the long rebounds that bounce over the back line, if they are weak side without anyone to guard drop down into the lane and help and finally be alert enough when a shot goes up to get in front of whoever is in your area to prevent a free runner into the action. Its just the very nature of the way the zone works and is played that makes defensive rebounding something that you have to work really hard at and still have a team effort to being alert to when shots go up just to avoid it being a real weakness.
