Is Wemby a Defensive of the Year candidate?

[Street Hunger]

Wemby's defense is excellent.

But the Spurs are such a horrible team that he shouldn't win that type of award, right? Or wrong?

The Spurs have the 23rd best defense in the league.

Their defense is only 23rd because it's worst ever bad when he's on the bench. He can't help them when he's not playing.

Yes. He's not gonna win it but I wouldn't be surprised if he got a couple votes.

You could easily argue he should win though. People are gonna bring up their record as if that has anything to do with his defense

[Manny98]

No

Who are the favorites?

[L.Kizzle]

I saw a graphic where he already has more black and steals then anyone who's won the award in like the past 10 seasons.

Alvin Robertson won the award with a 35-47 record for who else, the Spurs.
Mutombo won the award as a 8th seed. He also was 2nd All-NBA Defense that season ... Strang occurrence.
