You lead leage in blocked shots, you get DPOY.
Almost every year, that is the stat that wins it.
Fair? No, but that is the way it goes.
According to article in Express News.
Bowen got jobbed

Camby's time to shine: Denver's Marcus Camby is expected to be named the Defensive Player of the Year on Friday.
The league typically times announcements so the winner can receive the award at home.
That's bull . Camby is a decent defender, but Duncan and Bowen deserved it more. Well, at least Bowen is used to being robbed of this award.
Why is it that the stupid idiots who vote can't process that being a good defender when you're on the wings and guarding guards and forwards is 10 times more difficult than being 7 feet tall and blocking shots in the paint? Idiots.
I'm sorry for Duncan. Every year we've got the second best defender. First Bowen, now TD.
bowen deserves it more then duncan
bowen D has taken a real setback. He's not what he was.
Not true at all
Perimeter players need a substantial amount of hype during the season in order to challenge for the DPOY. There really wasn't any DPOY hype at all this year, so it's no surprise that the voters looked at the stat sheet to make their selection.
But at least it wasn't Ben Wallace again.
Big suprise. It doesn't look like Bowen will ever get one which is a travesty.
Dumb ass voters.
Really??
Oh my...
I hate Camby
It doesn't matter...
Go spurs Go
It's hard to ac ulate any stats on what Bruce does night in and night out.
Like a poster said early, a blocked shot is something you can tally.
And yet, you would all love having Camby on your team next to Duncan.![]()
I would not mind a cheap camby if healthy
Well, duh.
Well. It won't matter much when we beat his team in a five game play-off series.
thats such bull
bowen got boned
Time for Timmy to make him his , Hakeem-style.
Camby Named DPOY.
and you say that bowen deserves it more then duncan.
. U R
no , man.
Let's see if Bowen can lock up AI tonight.
like it would matter....if he does he'll b hailed dirty...if he don't he'll be hailed old....if he complains....a whiner....... ho hummmmm...![]()

If Bowen was a better rebounder, he would win the award. I am sorry but Tim's defense was not all that good for long stretches of this season. Also, it is no surprise given the way Camby ended the season.
