Minutes played per game should have been included in the stats of the "defensive player of the year candidates." It will show that wemby did those numbers even though his play time were restricted most of the season.
Also important: playing games that matter against teams that arent treating the game like is the rest day of the week
for real. dude was playing 26-28mins a game for like 50%of the season!
@@Edd-zd5wb haters gone hate
@@ryanr2630 Well he made an argument you don't like, then YOU came out with hate calling him a hater. I disagree with the argument btw. But the "hater" thing, can't you do better ?
@@spray1531 its an internet comment section. A forum. Not a high stakes political debate. But I’m glad the comment police is on the prowl! Keep up the good work sir 👮♀️
He is clearly the best and most impacful defensive player of the year. Anyone else getting the award would just be fake
Stupid comment of the Year right Here. Congrats
Gobert deserves it too, but Wemby clearly deserving also
the truth hurts to the haters right
@@tristmas6458 You are emotional little girls when talking about your favorite players lol. Almost like Kobe fans, but not as bad
@@Edd-zd5wb 🤣
I think Wemby deserves DPOY, he isn’t just leading in BPG, he is dominating it by 50% more BPG than 2nd. He isn’t just dominating BPG in 2024, 3.6 BPG is the highest in last 7-8 seasons. We could see 4-5 BPG like real top defenders from 80s 90s if Wemby keeps growing, it’s his first season in NBA.
Manute Bol
He can get to 4-5 if he played 36 min
@@vlesmeries Agree, If Wemby played 20% more minutes, he should’ve 4+ BPG. He is top defender in all era and dominating everyone in BPG today.
He wont get to 4-5 unless he plays more minutes
Even if he gets better, players will also get used to him and just stop testing him. They are going to make certain "rules" when you meet him in the paint
@@bigt3995 He could get 4-5 BPG, he may not. But 3.6 BPG is dominating BPG chart now, “His presence on the court makes penetrating the paint nearly impossible for opponents, with a staggering 11% decrease in their shooting percentage at the rim.”
I watched a ton of bb games when Walton was at UCLA. Lived in an area that got midnight feeds of all the UCLA games and I was "there" most every game night. I loved Walton's style and the thing I most appreciated was his impeccable timing. I watched virtually no games for the next 50 years, but here I am again enjoying another player who's timing is incredible. Brings back a lot of fond memories and I'd watch Spurs games at 3 a.m. if they were available. Can't wait to see what the future brings for the Spurs and Wemby!
Simply the best defensive player, he’s a lot more versatile, impactful and consistent than most other players
Gobert does the same things he does, for more minutes, with better overall results.
@@Edd-zd5wb lol too bad he plays for the t-wolves. should move the team to Seattle. Gobert is average compared to wemby
@@Edd-zd5wb you hatin, bro. Almost Gobert burner status. you literally on every comment in this mf.
@@ryanr2630 T-Wolves also have like 4 other top 20 defenders in the league
@@ryanr2630 lol Gobert is Elite compared to Wemby.
U forgot to mention HE KEEPS THE BALL AFTER BLOCKS. Who cares if u get a block but they get it right back and score
Thats just a straight up lie. He SOMETIMES keeps the ball after blocks... like all the othrr shot blockers
@@Edd-zd5wb go look up his block comp of the season and count
@@skinnymon123 nah. You are saying.it. therefore y0u have the number, therefore you would be BSing your way to glazing Wemby, right? Share the number
@@Edd-zd5wb 58% he keeps it vs other shot blockers are under 50. I counter that mid march so may not be exact but pretty sure its still above 50
@@skinnymon123 So barely relevan then. Good.
Someone mentioned it here but it’s true that Wemby keeps the ball in play or gives it to the spurs almost everytime he blocks it, I swear about 90% of the time, the ball comes back to the spurs
Oh if you swear then its real
And those "Dad Blocks", the ones he just catches it or just takes it off their hands.
@@Edd-zd5wb Still going? You've been crying about this for days, get a hobby or something weirdo.
@@Edd-zd5wb Says the guy who said. Gobert is better individually than Wemby when stats doesn't reflect that
DPOY is an individual title. NOT a team award. Wemby, 2024 ROTY and DPOY!
What you all think Wemby is, Gobert actually is.
Now, Wemby may be better eventually, well see when he gets better teammates and he plays the first game that matters in his career
@@Edd-zd5wb Individual title. Has nothing to do with the quality of your team. Or it should be called DTOY, with a T for Team. Sorry, Rudy is second.
@@vincentsouchaud6717 Again. All the things Wemby does, Gobert does them, but better, possession after possession.
Right now, Gobert is better INDIVIDUALLY
Put wemby on minnesota and they are as good defensively, put rudy on spurs and they suck
@@Edd-zd5wb Gobert is better INDIVIDUALLY? Learn to google
wembang should get rookie of the year, defensive player of the year, most improved player, best sixth man of the year, MVP and FMVP this year. he deserves it.
And the chip?
without injuries he's easily the future of nba and maybe the goat
There's a looong way to Hakeem, and Kareem, Bill, and finally Wilt the Stilt... let's hope he get its eggs raws from well fed chicks!!! Old school full size Obelix style roasted wild hogs and magic potion will take him there.
Wemby deserves easily to be the ROY as well the DPOY. His impact as an individual player is amazing !!
Thank you. Vic's DPoY case needed this, a tight case with statistical and video evidence. We know they'd never give him MVP because the Spurs aren't good enough and that one is highly political. RoY was contested at first, ups to Chet, Vasquez, Lively and others, but you're right that's now a lock for Victor. He does deserve DPoY. I'd like to see Victor get the DPoY ... from now through 2030.
Mvp is "highly political"?
We know they’re not gonna give him the MVP because hes not even a top 5 player in the league, what are you even talking about lmfao
rookie of the year and DPOY...
You know he is dominating, when players don't even attempt a challenge at the rim with him around.
Like you see a 2 on 1 fast break and the offense is like: "Nah, better wait for the whole squad." 😅
😁
He needs to gain like 20 lbs in muscle as he grows into full man these next 3 years are going to be nuts
Clearly DPOY
And the crazy thing is he's doing those blocks in this ERA where majority of NBA players now are so good and upgraded SKILLS unlike back in 80s and 90s.
You mean most blocks on little kids
@@Characterestic yep just like u🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
and he's doing this while playing under 30 minutes per game due to the spurs keeping him on minute restriction. but we all know the nba is just going to choose gobert because he's the best defensive player other than wemby while being on the best ranked defensive team
Great video and great takes! 👏🏻
If Dominique Wilkins was the Human Highlight Reel (and he was) Wemby is the Human Cheat Code. 😂
Every dpoy voter need to watch this video
Great analysis -- a professional, quality video.
Hell yeahhhh!!! Totally agree! thanks for this video =)
He is winning it for sure
He should win it for sure. I highly doubt he gets it though… 😞
Never seen anyone like him before... He's like Yao except slimmer, faster, more athletic, healthier, quicker, a better free throw shooter.
This is what it must've been like to see wilt & kareem for the first time
amazing point is that his playing time is short than other good defensive players
put him on any team and he is your #1 stopper right away. pick any team.
Stopper of what?
Long, tall, quick and good at anticipation... He may sweep everything.. MVP, ROY, DPOY
Literally 0% chances of mvp and if he wins DPOY then the award means nothing again. Like when MJ won it
@@Edd-zd5wbMJ is literally the best defensive guard… of all time. Have you ever said anything other than bullshit?
@@Peroriperora Only idiots would say that.
@@Edd-zd5wb No, only idiots would say DPOY means nothing just because MJ won it lmao.
MJ is one of the best defensive players ever, every single stat, advanced stat and accolade prove it. You’re just a delusional casual who hates the 🐐.
0:54 Security at the back with the nod of approval
crazy u got the biggest scariest guys in the nba getting rejected, luv it
absolutely!
He also deserves most improved
And 6th man
@@Edd-zd5wb 1st 2n 3rd 5th and 6th man lol
@@sidney1234usc I wonder if the people that exagerates the most is the people that actually never watches the games but compilations
@@Edd-zd5wb well that's a good question for sure. For me I know they give the most improved as a award that requires 2 or more seasons to receive but in wembys case you can argue that he's dramatically improved since being switched to center. Also idk if your statement was directed at me but I've literally watched every single one of his games this season so I've seen the improvements.
💀💀💀
DPOY, not TeamDPOY. Wemby should get DPOY and there should be no question about it. A -12 when he's on the court is huge. The worst defensive team is 7th best when he's on the court. That's massive.
Let me explain what you are saying.
You put a bunch of normies that arent in the NBA plus Wemby.
He plays 30' a.night. The other 18 another random normie 5-11' replaces him.
His plus Minus is insane. The best ever. When he plays, the team sucks. When he doesnt the team sucks WAAAAAY MORE. Number its like -175 per possession.
Therefore, Wemby MVP.
Its soooooo stupid
@@Edd-zd5wb You make a very popular error. A bench warmer in NBA is still in ~top 500 basketball players at the moment. Brian Scalabrini case and quote "I am closer to Kobe than you are to me".
And another example of your error: you do not place Wemby on the floor when taking guard out. Spurs have 3 more players 6'10"+ tall. So you replace a forward/center with him.
So there is a huge difference with Victor on/off the court. And this stat alone is not enough, but all defensive stats shows player shoot worse when he is around. Blocks are good, I like blocks, but they don't tell the whole story. Blocks + deflections + difference in efficiency when guarded by X player and guarded by others say a lot. And in this category Victory is an A class defender.
@@bartomiej9807 1 Im.not saying he isnt good or great.
2 The logic is the logic. It.cant fail. You can correct it the way you want it and its still the same thing. If your replacement sucks, your +/- will look better
3 Again. The award was never, isnt, shouldnt be just about the individual stats. If you believe they should be, fine it would be changing the significance of the award and a before and after 2024
@@Edd-zd5wb
1. OK.
2. Then term "faulty logic" should not exist. Yet it does. Your logical error is that you think a bench player in NBA suck, which is wrong. They are elite athletes, significantly worse than top of the league, but skies above Average Joe. If someone is staying in NBA (not some random 10day contract dude, fresh rookie or Thanasis Antetokoumpo :) ) then he is representing at least some level od decency.
3. This is dPoy - PLAYER award. if individual stats show huge difference why shouldn't it be taken into consideration? And this stat in 80's and 90's was often based on basic stats and eye test, which promoted individual accomplishments. Not sure it affected significance of the award then..
@@bartomiej9807 2 NO,IDIOT. I DIDNT SAY THAT.
If you replacement sucks, compared to the average replacemente in the League, and your bench sucks, xompared to the average of the League... You get better +/-
Maybe now you can "get it"
2k25 badges for him gonna be insane thx u Wemby now them boys at take two gonna have to make sure 2k respect interior defense 😅
He’s averaging under 30 mins of play too!
Time on the floor is both the pros and cons for Wemby's case of DPOY. It's an adventage sine he is so efficient to create the statistics with so little time. But, it's also a disadvantage since the other contenders have provide their defense much more minutes per game than Wemby have had in a year. And this is probably the only but minor fair issue for his case.
Future DPOAT ! 4 sure ! 🌌🪐🛸👽🌎🏀🔥😯😲😳🌋🤩😍🇫🇷👍
DPOY for sure
Even as a guard, getting this guy to defend you isn't a mismatch at all, I don't see any weakness or flaw in his game it's just scary to look at his plays considering he didn't get the ball as much and this was his rookie year
Play. With everyone game and respect your self. Bwat games khit bata dhil ang enjury ay di maiiwasan. Ang gusto ko lng every team may sisikat every years. Nkakagana manood tga fans any time bwat players... Thanks
Bro is tall and fast..one minute I thought player lost him but then boom he blocks 😅😅
Wilt has done this before, minus the 3pt shot which wasn't allowed yet.
Wilt could run for one hour straight without ever tiring, whilst doing Triathlon on the days off, high jump, 400mt obstacles, triple jump, and weight throw... Wemby has to take Wilt seriously if he wants to get there with him... ( I suspect he knows all of that already :)
Doesnt matter, he'll break like a twig at some point. Just a matter of time.
Also, notice the determination & fun in his face while playing like that? Exactly, me either.
Might arguably be one of the best 2 way players ngl
5:54 James and Wemby giving a high high-five is cute
Wembanyama collecting a trophy of bruised egos
Very good for the NBA and fans.
What's the parameters for a deflection stat ?
People, don´t let the Hype Blind you. If you check the last ten years of DPOY award, they winners are always Top3 (rarely Top5) Defensive Rating. Gobert has the Best defensive Rating, Wemby being the second. Minnesota has the Best Defensive Rating, San Antonio is 22th. You can argue the 30 min restriction, but in Defensive Rating in 100 possessions the values are the same (RG 1st, VW 2nd). You are saying that defensive player of the year is not related with the Team overall defensive performance, but the Data says the opposite.
Exactly the same happens with the MVP. Only 3 players won it in teams with less than 50 victories in 48 seasons (one being Mr Triple Double Westbrook, Moses Malone X2 and Nikola Jokic).
Young blood is a menace 😂
Wemby is like the last train stop
Is Wilt is watching Wemby from Hightown? Looks like the Avatar of the Chamberlain has just laid down on Earth again!!! Go Wemby Go!!!
DPOY
concordo
🥶🥶🥶
True dpoy
Defensive PLAYER of the year, not, defensive TEAM of the year.
Same argument can be made for the MVP, but it doesn’t work that way.
You have to WIN to show that your defense actually translates to winning games and being important.
This "Edd-zd5wb" guy just kept replying and hating, just shut up and take it my dude. Wemby is good, respect the kid
The NBA better give that DPOY to wemby!
I have been saying he is DPOY for months now.
if i was him i'd get my rebounds up
The long arm of the law, if you will…..
Bros stats is already an MVP caliber. he needs to stay in spurs along with the spurs current line up.the spurs dynasty might be alive again if coach Gregg keeps developing wembanyama
The rules have changed so much, it´s a bit strange to compare stats to the past
Taking Wemby over Gobert all day
Easily wemby wins this year, he the best defender in the world.
numbers don't lie but people can lie about numbers. but yeh he's pretty amazing at only 20yrs old - but spurs needed something since the lost pop and timmy d.
Don't you love how the spurs just give up a hole season to get another 1st round pick
yeah bolbol not doing ts😭
Wemby if is just transformational in the way that Wilt or Kareem was. His length simply changes the dimension of the court. If he doesn't win DPOY this year he might not ever win one, that's just how it goes but with that being said, he definitely does to be the DPOY and if he doesn't win the award loses major credibility from here on out.
so team record trumps ALL defensive stats?? it's politics if he doesn't win dpoy
quadruple double is inevitable for wembenyama...soon
Imagine being a rookie and also the DPOY.
I thought it was a clear runaway for him and the DPOY award. Until they tried to slide in Gobert at the end of the season. Wemby DPOY
they should let him play 4. If spurs get a real center he'll shine more.
What happened to Spurs playoff hopes,? Freeman.
Wemby for DPOY
So basically Wemby is the CLEAR ROTY, AND DPOY??
REFS WERE NOT CALLING NO DUMB FOULS. NO FT FESTIVAL PLAY BASKETBALL
Imagine if curry join the spurs, offense and defense would be great.
These awards' qualifications are purposely vague in order to cause discussions / engagement
Wembi is a cheat code xD
If his defensive impact was so huge, how did the Spurs end up with 60 losses?
because it is still the same piss chuggers intentionally assembled to tank for Wemby in the first place.
Kyrie plays in another team...
Clearly on stats davis is runner up but how come he was not on the list of nba final candidates😂😂😂
Why is everyone talking about Wembeyama in the comments?
The NBA has to break this cycle of the same players winning the awards every year. This is no fun, and why vote. Let players vote for the awards 👏🏾.. Not box office.
He clearly was DPOY, head and shoulders above Gobert.
Nba all star next
The best part: is only a rookie, probably this is the 'worst' version we seen
defensive player of the year easily. But we all know it’s going to gobert
If Paul Pierce is the truth Wemby is a unicorn 🦄🌈😁🔥
Bol Bol
The biggest mistake of lakers becoz they remove kcp very good on defense and offense
isnt this "DPOY" 230ish in overall defensive rating? Outside of main stats he has minus +/- and overall let points be made over his defense
Replace gobert wid wemby on the timbs and gobert on spurs and watch gobert do sht. Wemby on timbs easily can get to the finals.
It's so weird to see that Wemby is definitely a hell of a defensive player yet some of the elite players playing against him have scored alot against him/Spurs and he's such a good all around player yet they have only 20 or so wins in the season. It's like he didn't shut anyone down points wise and the team didn't improve significantly in win totals after he joined the team, yet he's the real deal, it's just a strange kind of feeling. it's all just a big experiment with all the players around him now.
So weird. Embiid 70! Sengun 40+.
Guess they scored all those points on Sochan
@@Edd-zd5wbyea. 16 of those 70 pts were on wemby. While 22 was on the backup center zach collins.
@@kokushibo6823 Lol what? GTFO
Gobert just got shitted on by Jokic today. Lol
@@Edd-zd5wb Mainly on Collins. Every time Wemby is benched, the other team makes 15 points. Sochan tries to play D, the others don't even try. That's why they are dead last in defense when he is not there.
still not 21? He can still grow then :/ maybe another growth spurt who knows
I think Wemby is deserving of DPOY but I want Rudy to win just to annoy Draymond..
He's better than I thought he would be. But doesn't match the hype.
