I’m not sure why that is, but that tends to be how things shake out.
Anyone who suggests narratives don’t play a role in how these things shake out isn’t paying attention.
That’s pathetic, especially when the candidate who won had a legitimate case.

Bam and Anthony Davis will simply not stop crying about their lack of DPOYs.
They can’t help themselves.
Does he think nobody is watching?

That we don’t have ample data that tells u that Wemby is very much the DPOY leader?
Their rebounding is pretty much equal and AD averages fewer blocks and steals.
When Wemby is on the court for the Spurs?
Their DRTG is 111.71, which would be 9th.
Yes, the rebuilding Spurs are better defensively with Wemby on the floor than the Lakers are with AD.
That’s not a narrative, that’s a fact.
If Wemby needs to guard the perimeter?
He can
If he needs to block shots, he does.
There have been 7 instances this season where an NBA player has recorded 7+ blocks in a game.
Wemby has 6 of them.
Sort of like what makes Gobert such a dominant rim protector.
I’m not sure why that’s a big deal, Wemby is an alien.
Maybe stop crying and get your team’s defense up?
They’re in the bottom 3rd!
Behind the guy he’s crying about!
