    I get it the 1st round, didn’t help his case. However outside of Bam, DeLon, Jaime and Niko nobody seemed like they wanted to win or help Bam.

  2. Sucks, but Wemby probably has Dpoy locked down for the next decade. Hes quite good already thanks to Duncan and RobinsonšŸ˜‚

    Shoutout to those 3 brave people that voted 1st.

    Whoever voted for Sabonis should be stripped their voting rights ngl

    Bam is a DPOY level defender itā€™s just unfortunate heā€™s in the same generation as multiple generational level defensive players like gobert draymond AD

    It’s never going to happen. He just doesn’t get enough of the box score attributes.

    Bam is the best 1-5 defender in the league. Unfortunately that doesnā€™t show up on the box score every night and these voters donā€™t watch every game.

  8. Im bodl enough to say that Wemby wasnt the 2nd best this year at all and if you actually watched you could tell. Wemby just gets more blocks to increase his defensive rtg. Yet the Spirs are #16 in the league on defense and the Heat are #5 and really at #5 because of the defense Bam does that can be counted. Once again all that matters are the stats to the voters.

    Bam’s best chance was 2022 but the voters had an agenda and last year JJJ was getting so many fake ass blocks. With Wemby in the league, Bam will never win one.

  10. Letā€™s face it brothers. Bam is never winning DPOTY and Spo is never winning COTY. Greats at their positions but voters just some old coots that only care about blocks and win loss difference from last year respectively.

    Heā€™s playing out of position and he doesnā€™t have sexy numbers. You have to watch games to see his worths. Jimmy doesnā€™t play the voters donā€™t watch. For bam to win we need more splash plays and more blocks . Itā€™s simple . If weā€™re able to get a truer big bam can be a big sfwe need to get away from four 6ā€™5 guys and bam . I think we can do it we have to get younger and jovic has to be our 5 or a player like him bam plays too much at the top of the key and doesnā€™t get enough rebounds on offense. And doesnā€™t get a chance to protect the rim truly because of all the switching that happens. He is the tallest guy on the court but didnā€™t play like a big. The team has to work too hard on offense Bam has to work too hard on offense to truly be great on defense.
    He has just been really good and never great.

    Individual stats matter more.Ā 

    They didnā€™t matter when Whiteside was dominating them. He didnā€™t finish higher than 3rd either. Plans change you know.Ā
