Lol Tatum has been by far our best defensive player, just like Rob was last year

Giannis gets all the credit that Lopez deserves

Tatum will be up there next year after he gains a bunch of praise as a defender this year and makes All-Defense. This award specifically always seems to be lagging behind. Smart won it last year because of all the work he’d done in previous years being a great defender, not to say that he wasn’t great last year.

Narrative award. Smart has no business being up there

Surprised Smart is that high, OG should be top 2/3. Brook Lopez deserves some love as well. SGA honorable mention.

Why does this list exist? Who is voting on this? It’s such an arbitrary random list. They’re all great defenders but it’s silly to do this on a weekly basis.
