That is certainly a compelling argument. He did it in 47:47 too- that's a night's work.

Lets look at the history of Rookies that have lead their classes in rebounding, and see how they have turned out.
Disclaimer: There was no website that I could find that compiled these stats, so I had to do this research myself. As a result, I could be wrong on a few players. If so, please let me know
2011: Blake Griffin
2010: Taj Gibson (could be incorrect)
2009: Kevin Love
2008: Al Horford
2007: Paul Millsap....??? Did not know this. Could be incorrect
2006: Danny Granger/Andrew Bogut
2005: Emeka Okafor (Dwight in 2nd place)
2004: Chris Bosh
2003: Amare
2002: Pau Gasol
2001: Kenyon Martin
2000: Elton Brand
From this trend, Enes Kanter has the basement of Taj Gibson, a player who has only been in the league for a couple of years. So really, if Kanter secures the Rookie Rebounding Crown this season, I would say that it is without a doubt a sign of good things to come. Wouldn't trade him for Rondo.

Is this per minute or average? I think Fareid (however it's spelled) from Denver will overtake Enes in RPG because he has been getting extended minutes and playing well.
Never mind, Faried already has Enes out-rebounded on average. 6.6 vs 5.0.
Faried averages 17.8 minutes to Kanter's 14.5 minutes, so I think Kanter still has an edge in rebounds per minute (maybe, too lazy to do math).
Actually, I think Faried has more per minute also (if the ****ty math in my head is right).

Its all per game, Cy. Per minute woulda taken a helluva lot longer to research for 12 draft classes.
Either way, its time for the Menace to rack up some boards. Id hate to have him lose to Faried.

I couldn't care less, at this point .. but those folks that ignore his outstanding scoring, rebounding, and assist numbers, as throw away, because he has a good team, are, well, not worth responding to.
