and he should be.
He got dpoy last year while missing a bunch of games. He's healthy this year and getting significantly more hype
If curry misses 15+ games and the spurs end up with the 1 seed Kawhi has a real possibility of winning DPOY/MVP/FMVP in the same year.
No question, no one even comes close to his tier.
Don't sleep on Raymond Green ... he does everything![]()
Not this year
Raymond Greenthe got that got raped by 'Moose' Monroe and Derrick Favors.
I'm tired of hearing this "He can guard 1-5" bull the media throws in for him and Lebron. I'd love to see them guard a PG and Center tbh
Every defender gets got by someone. I remember Rudy Gy getting Kawhi before. Draymond is a of a player on both ends. He's a legit DPOY candidate.
No doubt, but people are going overboard. They're saying he's a better defender than pippen because he can supposedly guard centers and power forwards and pippen didn't. The big men in pippen's day were vastly superior to the ty bigs saturating the league today.
This. Kawhi absolutely deserved his DPOY but Draymond made it close.
That has to be judged by how each player affected the league in which they played because neither will play guys from the other's era.
Green isn't close to Pippen in that regard but it doesn't mean he won't be eventually. People just have short memories and the latest one gets the most consideration.
Pippen was in the original top 50 all time. Green wouldn't be in the top 150 right now.
First, who gives a what Winer thinks? Second, Whiteside will get a least one vote, so I don't think Kawhi's getting the sweep.
He will get a vote, but he shouldn't (as you probably know). Green on the other hand deserves votes.
chinook agrees if ur talking about danny, tbh
, hey, I agree. I love Danny as much as anyone.
A lot can happen between now and the end of the season, but Kawhi is by far the best overall defensive player in the league.
Kawhi getting the DPOY awards in honor of Bowen who was robbed of probably 2 maybe 3 chances (damn you Ben Wallace...)
A girl can dream.
Timothy Duncan was the best defender in the spurs three championship run of 03-07.
You mean Tim Duncan?
And yeah, Kawhi will win it this year. He's the face of the best defense in basketball. Only thing that might change that is if Gobert returns and the Jazz go on a good win streak with a super historic DRtg. But I'd still lean towards Kawhi getting it.
Gobert shouldn't be fully discounted. Also, it's not like kawhi is having a year that is so beyond every other player's.
On the same segment, Rick Fox predicted the warriors to go 16-0 in the postseason tbh
