Why Wemby is your 2024 DPOY: - Leads the league in blocks (by far) - Leads the league in stocks (by far) - #2 in steals league-wise in February… - Spurs defense is elite (#5) with him on the floor. Could have been higher had he played center full season… - Spurs defense is DEAD LAST when he’s off the floor. Not only dead last but also historically bad defensively. Competing for the “worst defensive team ever” title when he’s off the court. - Only player with 10 blocks in a game this season. - Only player with back to back 5steals 5blocks games since MJ. - And the number of shots the opposing team does not take because he’s there is probably his biggest argument that does not show up in the stat sheet. - Opposing teams are setting high screens, double screens, re-screens, just to make sure he’s out of the paint… for a rookie… That’s how impactful he is. He is the DPOY and it’s not even close. By - @Peroriperora

[@jiyghkjsduhjkbkb]

Not to mention he is the only rookie to get 40 points and 20 rebounds since shaq and shaq did it playing 11 more minutes, if you include the 7 assist total you have to go back to 1974 to see that stat line by a rookie.

[@nomorenonsense]

Shaq is a legend and a very nice guy but getting tired of him hating on any big man that puts up better numbers than him in certain areas. Wemby is a different type of player and should just enjoy watching him. Shaqs making himself look like the jealous old timer who always just says I remember in my day.

[@leecm]

Shaq trollin lol

[@realspitter2727]

*hating

[@enmokunay]

I think Shaq is just trolling at this point 😂

[@antoniotrivelloni8191]

I'd say the three guys with the best argument for DPOY are Wemby (Spurs are 29th defensively without him and *6th* with him, plus the bonkers rim protection and passable perimeter defense), Rudy (anchor of the best defense in the NBA and a titan at the rim in his own right), and Bam (low-key been putting CLAMPS on people all year). Personally, I'm partial to Wemby winning it, because a rookie winning DPOY would be nuts, but to act as if any of those three don't have a perfectly valid argument is simply incorrect

[@finaldestination5847]

If Wemby does not win the ROY as well the DPOY awards it will be the biggest disgrace in the NBA history awards !! Wemby is being by far the best on this two especially with a weak team. Imagine if he would play with Celtics? He probably would be in the MVP coversation !!

[@olivoil2002]

Wemby will win 8× MVP and 10× DPOY in his career.

[@BruceMichaelFilms]

How can he be DPOY when the team stands to have the same or worse record than they did before drafting him? As incredible as he is, he isn’t impacting winning.

[@Tehui1974]

If you ever watch Shaq's interview with Kareem, you'll know that he believes that all the top NBA centers have to go through a right of passage. I believe this is the main reason why he's not giving Wemby any praise yet. If Wemby continues to do this for the next 6 years, then you'll see Shaq come out and give his props.

@@franklinfisher497 Nah, I don't know Luka's rookie stats but I have seen comparisons between Wemby and LeBron's stats and Wemby's numbers are definitely better especially if you consider per 36 min numbers because a lot of people forget, Wemby played limited minutes for a huge chunk of the season. Be that as it may, it's different eras so take it with a grain of salt. Luka now is also better than LeBron's best seasons stats-wise but that doesn't mean Luka is better period. Once again, different eras.
