Voters don't care about advanced analytics that make Gobert look good. They care about stare and reputation.

There's no way Gobert gets the DPOY this year over Whiteside, not over Leonard(the obvious choice) or Green either.

Two years in a row? C'mon. This award is such a joke now. It only can go to a player on the top two teams? Gobert is better than kawhi and Draymond. If he was on either those teams there would be no discussion other than Gobert casting a shadow on those lesser defenders.
I personally declare Rudy Gobert the real and true DPOY. Opponent field goal % at the rim is virtually negative. You cannot argue against this. Declaration made. Gobert is now DPOY. I am contacting bbal-reference.com to make this finalized.
Haters, if Exum plays this year Gobert wins by a landslide. How do you argue white side over the best defense in the NBA?
That might be true but mostly because we would have been a better team all year which helps players win awards. But the fact is he didnt and we didnt make the playoffs. The 12th worst team doesnt deserve to have the DPOY. Next year is his year for that award or at least be close to winning.
Leonard is hands down the DPY. Easy and it's not really that close
What was your boy Leo's opp % shot at the rim? Was it close?
