How can you even compare someone like D-Rob to a 2-3 season, one sided sensation like Ben Wallace. No disrespect to Ben, but hes not half the player DRob, or Hakeem was. 4.5 and 2.3 blocks/steals per game while dominating offensively? DROB's season was unreal.

Those are sick stats, but defense isn't just stats. I thought Ben Wallace's season was more memorable in terms of defense than Robinson. That season opposing teams had to adjust their offensive plan to get around the Big Ben roadblock. yeah everyone’s on board from admiral’s 4.5 bpg and 2.3 spg.

He was putting up those DPOY stats and racking up 23 points a game? You can't even comprehend that - - just appreciate that he plays on both ends. That is easily a fantasy stud year. Dream is a close second. worm @ 18 rpg is just over the top. The Admiral takes the cake easily. He was putting up those DPOY stats and racking up 23 points a game?

I understand that it's a much more impressive feat to play effectively on both ends of the floor, but it isn't a prerequisite to win DPOY. Why is PPG listed as a criterion?

Those are some sick numbers. Although you got to admit that Eaton's 5.6 bpg is sick! Robinson gets the nod but The Dream, Worm, and Big Ben get some serious love.
