How is Ibaka on the team, and not KG? smh
Amazing how DPOY doesn't get 1st team. NBA needs to fix the consistency on this. It's like winning the CotY with the worst regular season record.

Because Kori wouldn't approve their troll accounts.
Where's the great Dwight Howard? I thought he was >>>>>>>>> Duncan. You mean gaudy stats suddenly don't matter anymore?
He's a black Kevin Love you know.
Hey hey hey, now. I apologized a long time ago for that.
Kevin Love clearly didn't deserve that.
And it was the black Kevin Love.
Lebron coasted on D throughout the 1st half of the season, tbh..Miami struggled on D early on, which generated buzz/false hope from most NBA fans(idiots, tbh), because the entire team was coasting on D, focusing on out scoring opponents with running and gunning..
The Heat rely heavily on Lebron and Wade's defense, both guys turned it on in the 2nd half of the season..
KG's advanced defensive +/- numbers are unbelievable, tbh..his offense is horrible nowadays, but he's still an elite defender..the Celtics made the playoffs solely due to their defense, and KG was the anchor of that D..
That's two years in a row, and not surprising, considering the media votes for DPOY and the coaches vote for All D.the dpoy getting named to the 2nd team
The really funny thing is that if there hadn't been a tie for C on the first team, Gasol would have been left off altogether. One of Noah or CHandler would have dropped to the second team.

It's probably because he thinks that blocking a shot into row 20, instead of to a team mate, is a good thing. It just gives the other team another possession. If they tracked blocks that actually become turnovers, Ibaka wouldn't be nearly as high on the block list.Ibaka is 196th in the league in opponent points per possession.... somehow got First-Team All Defense
, if they had counted Sanders at his actual position (center) instead of as a forward, Gasol would have been left out entirely.... NBA trying to save face with that one, tbh
Marc Gasol only got 12 points (five 1st, two 2nd votes), Larry Sanders with more points. What a joke that he got DPOY, Timmy should be 2nd team center and Sanders in 2nd team with more votes than Gasol.
I like Gasol, but these teams show what a joke DPOY voting is. Sanders, Duncan, Ibaka, Chandler and Noah all with more All-D votes than Gasol.
all NBA defensive volleyball 1st team
Epic failure. CP3 doesn't defend - he goes for steals. How in the does the DPOY not be 1st team all defense?First Team: CP3, Tony Allen, LeBron, Ibaka
Second Team: Mike Conley, Avery Bradley, Paul George, Duncan, Marc Gasol
Timmy got robbed!
Congrats to Ibaka for being the best defensive PF in the league while being the 2nd best defensive PF on his team behind Collison
lol, spearchucker is a glorified Mutombo.
So what if he averages 3 bpg on a team whose best defenders are the Swiss 3 and D guy, the black Dirk, and Nick Collison?
the most overrated hack to ever play the game, he benefits so much playin on stack t eam, a bunch of idiots on his team dont even play a lick of defense, yet he gets credit for them advance stats, very misleading
NBAWOWY.com tracks block data to look at events post block: How often the blocker rebounds it, How often a team mate recovers it, how often out of bounds etc. I doubt the majority of NBA coaches looked at it in determining All Defensive teams though.
Point guards are typically the least impactful players on defense, and steals are probably the biggest way they can make an impact.... CP3 is the best in the league at getting steals though, he's very good at playing the passing lanes especially, tbh....
Kirby REALLY can't defend at all, but I'm sure you'd be riding his nuts per par if he got another undeserved spot on an All-Defensive Team, tbh
