Do you guys think Wemby was robbed of DPOY?!
Not if you go by the stats used to determine the defensive player ratings and not just blocks. If you go by that, Gobert was #1 and Wemby #2. If you aren't going to go by stats it becomes a popularity contest. If there is a rating process that uses all of the various individual defensive stats, how would anyone justify giving the award to anyone other than the top rated player?
I've heard one of the people in media voting saying Wemby was the best defender in the league, but he still voted Gobert because he said he couldn't vote for someone whose team is losing so much. So he voted purely based on Team results, and not the Player results... Which is a bit stupid, since the DPOY is supposed to be a Player's award, not a Team's one...
The problem is that blocks and steals are really the only way to statistically show an individuals defense, the stats where Gobert was #1 has a lot to do with his teams defense, which shows why multiple T. Wolves players where rated top 20 in those same stats, the only true way to determine an individuals impact on defense is their plus minus on/off court and if you look at the spurs their defense drastically changes when he’s off the floor from top 5 to bottom 5 on the other hand the wolves defense doesn’t change much, and like someone else commented there’s a reason why the only explanation I’ve heard from these media voters in why they chose Gobert is because of team record which is ridiculous DPOY should go to the best defensive player of the year and yes they’ve never given it to a player on a bad team but there’s also never been a player on a bad team who’s impacted his team on the defensive end like wemby there’s a first time for everything and this should’ve been a first
@@PedroHernandez-ie2cx Being the best defensive player on your team, as Wemby certainly was, doesn't make him the best defensive player in the league. The individual defensive player rating is calculated by using all of the defensive stats that are tracked for the players, not just blocks. Apparently you haven't bothered to look at both players plus/minus for the season. Golbert has a +411 for the season and Wemby had a -142 a difference of over 550 points separating them. How do you give the DPOY award to a player that allowed his opponents to score 142 more points when he was on the floor that what his team was able to score?
Yes.
Wemby went from overrated before the season to underrated at the end. Pretty insane
Facts fr
That’s what happens when people watch 2 games a season and only look at stats lmao
'''okay 7'1 guy who never led the league in blocks'' is CRAAAZY
To avoid confusion and chaos it would be appropriate to give the DPOY as an individual stat award and a Defensive Team of the year as a collective effort that is Team based . The definition should be accurate.
Gobert had the best individual defensive player rating for the season, Wemby was 2nd. That rating is determined by individual stats, not team stats.
How do you determine the best individual defender? Because it seems the reason why Gobert was ranked 1st had a lot to do with team defense.. how many blocks and steaks did Gobert have? How many deterred shots? What was the opponent’s shooting percentage on isolation plays against each? Plus minus numbers with them on/off the court the stat that shows how much impact a player has on his teams defense which wemby led by far.. Goberts a great defender but he wasn’t the best defender of this year he was the best defender on the best defensive team but not the best defender which is why the voters main explanation to why they voted for him instead of wemby is because of wemby’s team record
@@PedroHernandez-ie2cx No, defensive player ratings are based on individual stats, not team stats. All you have to do is look up "NBA defensive player ratings" and you will how it is determined.
EXACTLY 💯
@PedroHernandez-ie2cx yeah we know dude
There's a crazy "metric" to sort this all out. It's very simple. You watch a lot of basketball and see which player is superior defensively.
Not only was Wembenyama by-far the most impactful defensive player of 2024, he is one of - if not THE - most impactful defensive player I've ever seen. And I've seen Pippen, Ben Wallace, Mutombo etc.
This is a historically bad snub, but the voters couldn't grasp the right decision, because it's so unconventional (rookie on a bad team).
He didn't make the playoff tho... you probably have to be on a winning team for the. Maybe a all-star appearance
Timacree: I didn't know you had a vote? So I don't think your opinion matters.
@@kyliedadify oh man! I got pOwned !!
the only argument for not giving wemby defensive PLAYER of the year is how his team was doing. they need to change the award name because wemby got robbed. individually he was better then anyone in the league on defense and it wasnt even close.
It's a fucking INDIVIDUAL individual trophy the trophy is called the best defensive PLAYER of the year not TEAM
ALLO ALLO YOU EAR ME????
chet isn't in the same class as wemby. Litterly drafted a year before. He is a redshirt 2nd year player.
This is supposed to be an individual award, not a team award, Wemby should have won!!
Ask voters like Rachel Nichols. Have you heard her trying to defend her vote for Rudy. 😂
I'm a Spurs fan and i wouldn't say "robbed" although i do think he should've won..
The NBA doesnt need to explain why he didn't win ... they don't decide... it's decided by 100 media members by vote... so ... Wemby is the 1st rookie in NBA history to make 1st team all defense ...
Wemby would win it next season. And a few more after that
He's probably gonna win it every single year till he retires
@@theguywhoasked2957lol true
If he couldn't win it this season, how's he gonna win next? Voters gave it to Rudy cause the Timberwolves are contenders while the spurs are rebuilding. Spurs aren't contenders next season
@@saltysolution4127so if he leads the league in blocks next year and Is dominating on the defensive end he had to win it who else is gonna win it Rudy again?
I know I’m make a comparison in a different sport but Cortez Kennedy won DPOY on the hawks and they had a bad record I believe in 1992
defensive ratings were close 104.4 for Gobert and 105.8 for Wemby, i think what hurt Wemby statistically is that he averaged close to 4 turnovers (don't laugh nor be an ignoramus, go online and see that turnovers are factored in a player's defensive rating). having said that, their close defensive ratings were not reflected in the media votes where Rudy got 72 1st place votes vs Wemby's 19, and that I can't really understand. the only logical explanation i can offer is that there seems to be an unwritten rule for a rookie to win a major award other than the ROTY.
I really thought for a long time dpoy was an individual award for the best defense player ... But its a team award .. the wolves was the best defense , even when gobert didnt play ... So Gobert even though he didnt get as many blocks and steals or anything else then Wemby ,he lead the Best defensive and thats the most important... Forget every player is not scared of him... and look to dunk on him for highlights.... Forget that i seen him in more highlights on Shaqing a fool then anyother center .... So next year when rhe vest Defense has still Gobert . .. and wemby or anyone else leads the nba in blocks with as many strals and deflections as Wemby had ... Or more they wont have a chance when Wolves lead in defense for the next half a decade
Uh no its because he is a rookie. Duncan lead the Spurs to the 2nd best defensive rating in the league but Mutumbo won the award hell Duncan finished 5th he did not even finish top 3 and the Hawks, Jazz, Supersonics and Lakers had a wrose defensive rating than the Spurs but they got more votes than Duncan because he is a rookie. I bet you if this was next year no matter how bad the Spurs is the voters will pretty much have no choice but to give Wemby DPOY.
When all of the individual defensive stats were evaluated, Gobert had the best defensive player rating for the season, Wemby came in second. Team stats are not used to determine the ratings.
STOP IT, the DPOY is an individual award it doesn't take into account the team stats
That award name makes no sense. It should have been called best def team not player of the year. And it should be min twolves who won not Rudy. Give credit to the young man!
Gobert had the best defensive player rating for the season with a 104.4 rating, Wemby was second with a 105.8 rating. Those are based on individual stats, not team stats. So, if after they factor in all of the different defensive stats that are tracked, and not just blocks, and Gobert comes out on top, how does it make no sense? What would make no sense is if he lost. It's not a popularity contest.
Wemby never said, "I got robbed." Your misrepresentation is almost libelous. Change your thumbnail.
Early season lack of minutes. Per minute I don't think Gobert even comes in 2nd. I think Homgren from OKC played better overall defense as he had a bigger impact on the total defensive capabilities of OKC than Gobert did for Minnesota. Gobert had pretty much the best defensive starting five in the NBA (although Boston is a close 2nd there) around him when KAT was healthy. Wemby... well... yeah... nobody other than him was or is really a 'top shelf' defender in that starting five. Next year I think Wemby runs away with DPoY (assuming he stays healthy of course) and Holmgren gets the number 2 nod.
The defensive Player of the Year isn't determined by who blocked the most shots, there are many other things factored in and when you factor in all of those other things, Gobert finished the season with a 104.4 rating, best in the NBA, and Wemby came in second with a rating of 105.8. If they are using statistics to make the determination, then it's laid out why Gobert won. If you aren't going to use stats then it becomes a popularity contest and is going to be subjective. Wemby had a great season and there is no shame in coming in 2nd as DPOP.
The team is a handful of points worse when Gobert sits. Wemby has a significantly greater impact on his teams numbers. It's an individual award. Wemby has a greater impact so it's reasonable to say he is the better defensive player.
@@GetmemyWemby No, statistics are kept to identify a players individual performance for each defensive category. Statistics are factual data and are not subjective. If Wemby's measurable stats are not as good as Golbert's, then he is not "better". You can wish it and want it, but it's not going to go that way. You are literally saying that even though Golbert had better stats, that Wemby is better just because you say so. 😂
Rudy is the best defensive player anchoring the best defense in the league, which has translated directly to wins. Wemby is absolutely amazing individually, but the spurs suck right now.
💯
Uh no he is not. It is actually easier to play defense on a good defensive team and it is alot hard to play defense on a bad defensive team. Gobert have teammates that has his back defensively he do not have to do everything. Wemby is basically the Spurs defense. He have to defend 2-3 players at 1 because his teammates miss defensive assignments never seen Gobert do that.
@@Fawnswine true, it's easier to get big stats on a team where nobody else plays defense. Unlike the wolves who have perimeter defenders who often prevent the ball from even getting to Gobert.
Remind me which team had the best defense all year and into the playoffs?
@@rpharrison2007 Uh no it is not. Show me a clip where Gobert is guarding 2-3 players at 1 or their is a 3 on 1 fast break and NBA players are too scared to even shoot the ball which is the case with Victor not Gobert. The so called DPOY they had to put KAT on Jokic because Gobert cant guard him what a joke. If anyone should be DPOY on the wolves it should of been KAT not Gobert. I can see you have a biased opinion since you are a wolve fan but anybody with any logic knows Victor is milies better than Gobert and it is not even close.
@@Fawnswine Wemby is amazing and probably has many DPOTY in his future.
I'm just saying two things.. first.. in my opinion DPOTY should be the best defender of a top defense, and wins should matter. Right now, the wolves have both. Just like MVP is different than the scoring leader.
If the spurs had, Ant, NAW and Jaden on the perimeter, Wemby's numbers would be less because he wouldn't be the only line of defense.
Also, Joker is just a monster for anyone to defend. Kat's defense has gotten much better, but the bar was pretty low to start with.
If you think that DPOTY should go to the best raw stats regardless of record or team defense.. that's a solid argument, I just disagree with it.
Okay this vid was way better than what I had anticipated. 👍
Thanks for watching! More 🔥 coming!
Rudy's defense is exposed every single playoff series. But i guess the regular season games mean more.
Defense is not all about blocks. Blocks are just a part of defense. You also need to look at the individual defensive rating of the player bro. That gives you the overall picture.
That’s just a stupid stat to judge someone’s defensive ability
Steph curry out here looking like a good defender in 2016 if you use bs stats like that
(He literally had a better defensive rating than rookie wemby lol)
same case as in 1988 hakeem got robbed
DPOY is an individual award. That is why its called Defensive PLAYER of the year. Aside from stats you should look for the impact of the player when he is IN and OFF the court. Wemby can guard 1-5 even 3 in 1 fast breaks. Show me every stats and metrics thats shows Gobert is better than Wemby then lets talk. If you argue that stats should not matter now tell me what is you basis for the award. If you tell me its the total team success then change the award to Defensive Team of the year.
Imagine spurs having almost being best defensive team every year also having best record. But they can't give the award to Duncan.
Gobert is patrolling only inside the paint. The video is right, his stats are elevated by his teammates. You can give them the Defensive Team not player. He even got cooked by Luka lol. Maybe Dancing player of the Year
Don't fool yourselves, you all always pick wemby over gobert on your team defensively and offensively
Rudy is better defensively this season just Accept it and stats don’t lie, and blocking shots is impressive but just blocking and sending the ball out of bounds is useless that’s why For example Bam Adebayo Actually defends the rim not just blocks shots same like Rudy
Rudy and Minnesota got exposed by #6 Seed Mavs for game 2 last night, it never fails Rudy Gobert always chokes some point in da playoffs... Rudy Gobert and Minnesota are in jeopardy of being swept by the Mavs😂😂😂
Wemby gave Jokic and Giannis a hard time, no one is better at purely defending as Wemby, Shaq is one big salty baby.
Yes, VW was robbed. The players know who should have won DPOY and that was VW.
I knew he was going to get robbed because he was a Rookie! Now look at Rudy in the playoffs, getting bbq chicken 🍗!
The whole team helped rudy G. VICTOR DID IT ALONE
Sorry to say this but this video is a click bait.
Because he got sooooooooooooooo many L's...... W's actually mean something vs paper.... Harden would be considered the best player to ever play if we have wemby the DPOY
Hope this helps the kids
Yes yes
AFTER WATCHIG GAME 3 OF WESTERN CONFERENCE WEMBY WILL WINDPOIY NEXT 10 Y2A
Wemby got robbed on DPOY. Just like Luka got robbed on MVP.
WEMBY DPOY 2024, SND TEAM ALL- NBA. 2025 1ST TEAM ALL-NBA
Wemby said it himself. Rudy deserved the DPOY.
If Wemby was in a team with 35 wins, then why not but 21 wins means he had no impact in the performance of the team
No, Wembanyama was asked if he can win DPOY this year, he said no, because Rudy Gobert is miles ahead of him but someday hes gonna get his own.
...we all know wemby is the best defender in the league...
You can think that, but the defensive stats used to determine a players individual player rating showed him to be second in the league for the season, behind Gobert.
Robbed
If Gobert had the best defensive player rating for the season with a 104.4 rating, how was Wemby robbed when he only had the 2nd best rating with a 105.8 rating for the season?
@@vanhattfield8292because wemby is obviously better
Edit - Luka had the DPOY on skates for that game winner too, that ain't no DPOY
Gobert is garbage and he's a dirty player. So far I'm the playoffs he has looked washed and his team is better without him
Wemby is already the best defensive player in the league. PERIOD!
Not based on defensive statistics he isn't, he is second for the 2023-24 season, right behind Golbert, who had the best stats and best defensive player rating in the league.
Meanwhile Gobert got cooked for a game winner.
If rudy played for the spurs he would average 3.7 blocks per game. The difference is Timberwolves have other players getting blocks.
Uh Gobert never avraged over 3 BPG and he did played for the Jazz which was god awful defensively without him. His peak at BPG was 2.6 so your comment makes 0 sense.
@@Fawnswine +1
It is a "defensive" award, not "most blocks" award. When all of the defensive stats are combined, Rudy had a defensive player rating of 104.4, which is the beast in the league for this season, and Wemby had a rating of 105.8, which was second in the league.
@@vanhattfield8292 Uh do you realize defensive rating is an overrated stat. If you play on a good defensive team everyone have have a good defensive rating than if you play on a bad defensive team. It is more impressive that Wemby was able to have the 2nd best defensive rating in the league playing on a bad defensive team.
@@Fawnswine You realize that a players defensive rating is not a stat, right? Individual defensive statistics are evaluated and a numerical value given to each category. The values for each category are added together and the sum is the players defensive rating. No one is saying that Wemby's performance isn't impressive and praise worthy, but his performance, as determined by the NBA's process for tracking individual defensive performance, was not better than Golbert's.
