yes you do factor in rebounding....thats why there exists a "defensive rebounding" statistic...of which wallace ranks 3rd. ball-handling and shooting dont factor in, defensively.
and mojo, how can you say that wallace "pads his stats"? its his job to lurk in the paint, grab boards and knock down some shots. you dont accuse a player like peja of "padding his stats" because he hangs around the perimeter taking jumpers do you?
