Same restrictions? How about their location on the lane, defense inside, offense farther out. The "inside" position is always a big advantage in rebounding.

Of course he does, but not in rebounding. He gets to take a fifteen foot shot, taking up to ten seconds to release it, with no defenders in his face trying to block his shot. Of course, that didn't help me in high school. I had an easier time making a put back with a defender than making an uncontested free throw.
