Predictable. Wemby robbed. You hate to see it.
He most definitely got robbed.
18 voters left wemby off altogether
2 left goober off
Minnesota top defensive team and close to no. 1 was tough to beat, narrative is strong. But many should take a hint with Gobert missing last game and his team not skipping a beat.
Yeah, it's always a good idea to base things on a one game sample size.
Minnesota has 3 other players on their team ranked in the Top-20 defensively this season. The fact that they looked absolutely dominant defensively against the defending champs last night without Gobert playing a single minute speaks volumes.
Meanwhile the Spurs drop from the 4th-ranked Defense with Wemby on the court to the 28th-ranked Defense when he’s off is insane. All while Wemby lead the league in Blocks & Stocks + Steals for a Center. Wemby most definitely robbed tbh.
Doesn't take one ounce away from Gobert's contributions, but yes, it's very tangible proof that he has an excellent defensive team around him and at the very least it dispells the notion that he should be the recipient of the award based on team's defensive performance, which is the main argument over Wemby for a lot of voters (best defensive player on the best defensive team rhetoric).
