HaMu🇵🇸2 years ago

@TheShopUN It’s facts though, how u DPOY but not on 1st all defense 😭 don’t even make sense

@CJtheUNathletic @TheShopUN Maybe Marc Gasol got robbed of being all defensive 1st team.

Apex Jones2 years ago

@TheShopUN Gasol literally smoked a Lebron pack on defense that year. Mr. "Earned, not given" is crying about something he didn't earn. Shocker.

Per Sources2 years ago

@TheShopUN They gave it to Marc Gasol the year he deserved it. Ever since then players stated campaigning for themselves cause Bron didn't campaign

@TheShopUN The Same Reason it makes no sense for people saying Lebron is better than Kobe 🤷🏽‍♂️.. I go by Eye Test n Kobe Is Better

LeBron James says never winning Defensive Player of the Year is the one award that still stings “Defensive Player of the Year. That’s the only award that I don’t have in my house that kind of stings.” “The year I finished second in Defensive Player of the Year, the guy who won Defensive Player of the Year didn’t even make First Team All-Defense. That doesn’t make sense.” “I also had an opportunity to be the first unanimous MVP.” “I got one vote… it was a writer from Boston.” “The media votes on these awards, and I don’t know if it’s a perfect way to do it because humans have bias.” “Why they voting if you’re not watching the game, you’re not studying the game, you’re not listening to the peers of the game too?”

LeBron James says never winning Defensive Player of the Year still bothers him “That's the only award that I don't have in my house, that kind of stings. It don't make sense. The year I finished second in Defensive Player of the Year, the guy who won didn't even make First Team All-Defense” “I also had an opportunity to be the first unanimous MVP, where I got all 120 votes, but I got 119. It was the one vote and he voted for Carmelo. It was a writer from Boston, of course. I know his name too, but I ain't going to give him that light just yet” “Why are they voting. That doesn't make sense. I don't know the answer, but why are they voting if you're not watching the game, you're not studying the game, and you're not listening to the peers in the game who are telling you, he's the best player”

Nick Wright thinks LeBron was robbed of unanimous MVP and DPOY in 2013: “Every time we have unanimous awards and defensive player awards come out, I’m reminding of what was stolen from LeBron James. Because LeBron James one year got a 100 out of 101 first place MVP votes and the reason he didn’t win it unanimously was because Gary Washburn decided someone needed to recognize Carmelo Anthony season even though nobody thought Carmelo Anthony was MVP. He was like, I’ll do it. LeBron would have been the first ever unanimous MVP but it was denied by Gary Washburn and that same year LeBron should have won Defensive player of the year for the only time of his career he would have won it, but somehow Marc Gasol won the award despite not being first-team all defense. So, that 2013 season really kinda a tough one.” (Via What’s Wright? with Nick Wright)

Anthony Edwards on winning defensive player of the year, and MVP “I don’t really think I’m going to be able to win Defensive Player of the year, I got two of the best defenders on my team, so it’s gonna be hard for me to win… as long as my impact is there every night I should be okay. As long as I make the all defensive team that means something… MVP and championship that’s the goal”

2009 Revis was the best performance for a defensive player I’ve ever seen. Near perfect. Charles Woodson (who had a fantastic year) only won DPOY because of “better stats”

Asked Jaylen Brown about Derrick White’s defense — and he said he could see D-White being Defensive Player of the Year: “I think Derrick White has been playing at an All-Star level l, because he plays both sides of the ball. And that's no disrespect to some of those other guys that are maybe in All-Star contention — but it's a clear difference. “I think Derrick is a First Team All-Defense type of ballot, or maybe even Defensive Player of the Year.”
