The Los Angeles Lakers face a challenge in the NBA playoffs against the Houston Rockets, who excelled in rebounding during the regular season. The Rockets ranked first in total rebounding percentage and offensive rebounding percentage, allowing them to score third-most second-chance points. The Lakers, who ranked 12th in total rebounding percentage, must improve in this area to compete. Coach JJ Redick and LeBron James have stressed the importance of rebounding, with James calling on his teammates to 'get their ass in there, box out and rebound.' To succeed, the Lakers must limit the Rockets to one shot per possession and potentially speed up their tempo to counter the Rockets' slow pace.
