Rebounding at the elbows instead of the paint is the adjustment on long threes.

“There's a lot more threes, there's a lot more long bounces. So I think it's just about us training our minds to obviously just try to clean up some of those long boards. You know, I think that we're running into the paint a lot to go and rebound when we should be rebounding at the elbows, especially given the shot quality. So I think that there's a strategic thing to that, but it's also just willpower at the end of the day.”
