Wemby wants his this year. He deserves it if OKC crashes out the next 2 weeks.

A season award does not get decided over two weeks. SGA is having one of the most hyper efficient offensive seasons we’ve seen. That doesn’t change even if he had two bad weeks (which he likely won’t anyways)

San Antonio is up there with OKC in the standing, Spurs won their games OKC this year, Wemby is the best defender by a wide margin and almost as dominant offensively as Shai with much less usage and minutes.

I get it though, yall want Shai to win one last MVP before it’s over, because Wemby already is the league’s best player.

If Wemby is scoring 30ppg and DPOY every year, good luck to anyone else who wants it. That’s only happened once before in NBA history: MJ in 1987-88.

Giannis also got a mvp/dpoy on 29.⁵⁄₁₃.⁶⁄₅.6

Prudent_Fish1358 | Spurs

2 | 8 hours ago

Yep, he’s the closest to do it since MJ. hard to fathom being a top 10 scorer in the league, DPOY, and not get the MVP.

Giannis was averaging 30/12/6 while anchoring his team’s entire defense and wasn’t even top 3, voter fatigue hits fast.

Prudent_Fish1358 | Spurs

5 | 9 hours ago

Giannis hasn’t finished higher than 5th in DPOY since winning it, so not the same thing at all. DPOY vs 5th in DPOY is a massive difference. And as good as Giannis is on D, he’s nowhere near Wemby on a nightly basis. I doubt Wemby will have enough voter fatigue not to win it every year if he meets 65GP.

He’ll probably have like 4 seasons out of the next 8 where he meets the 65 game threshold plus voter fatigue hits like a truck. LeBron isn’t immune to it why you think wemby will be?

Prudent_Fish1358 | Spurs

LeBron never won DPOY, so why is this comparison relevant?

He was still an amazing defender at his peak? do you think wemby will surpass peak lebron? i doubt it. thats why im saying voting fatigue will get him

Prudent_Fish1358 | Spurs

2 | 9 hours ago

If Wemby is doing something that only the other GOAT has done, and only did it once in his career? I think there’s certainly an argument to be made that Wemby’s peak could eclipse what LeBron did. Does that mean Wemby will have a better career? It would, frankly, be insane to think of anyone surpassing what LeBron has done considering he’s continuing to play at a high level well into his 40s. LeBron is the model of consistency along with Duncan and Kareem (surpassing them now), but he doesn’t have the most unassailable “peak” in NBA history. You could argue MJ, Hakeem, Shaq, and possibly Wemby are alongside or even exceeding him in peak performance, certainly MJ has that argument with 5x MVP/6x FMVP.

OTOH, I could be wrong, and maybe in 3-4 years the NBA media will be tired of what he does.

Wemby rarely shoot 15 attempts by halftime. He is definitely making a point about the criticisms about his “low” scoring output.

21 points on ⁸⁄₁₅ shooting so far. People has to understand Wemby can score more than his 24 ppg average, but he is simply an unselfish team player.

Give him 20+ shots a game for a whole season. We can find out and watch his efficiency.
