Although I haven't watched much of the Spurs this year, I am going to guess it's based on a couple of things. When you only have two guys running the offense while everyone else stands and watch, the guys who don't get any touches will be much less interested in playing defense. Also, Spurs have always employed having one post player(Duncan) and 4 wing players to spread the floor, it worked in the past because they were one of the best 3 point shooting team, but with roster changes and everyone getting a year older, they can't rely on the 3 ball to bulldoze the opposing defense, and that in turn makes it more apparent the Spurs doesn't have enough size outside of Duncan. Houston has the same problem where no one outside of Yao could pull double digit rebounds.
As Riley said, no rebounds, no rings.
