      If he was all defensive type of player wouldn’t his team be better? Worst in the league at the moment. Just because he makes great blocks on espn like on Chet. Chet beat him 3x the next possession even crossed wemby up and dunked on him.

    I appreciate the love for SGA, but I've watched every second of every Thunder game. SGA is the 5th best defender on that team (Behind Dort, Chet, JDub and Cason Wallace) and there should be way more love for a guy like Dort who has been one of the best on ball defenders in the league since his rookie year. He doesn't get the recognition because of the lack of steals and blocks but he is a defensive menace when chasing around screens. He broke an NBA record last year with the most offensive fouls drawn being exclusively from illegal screens because teams can't get this guy off them! He's switchable because of his insane strength and lateral quickness. He was voted 2nd best on ball defender in the league by players in a poll and was mentioned by Luka and Dame as one of the toughest defenders in the league. Not to mention all of his clutch 1-on-1 defensive game winning stops against guys like Dame, Luka, Fox, Harden, Steph, and Kawhi to name a few. Give this man more love!

    Wemby is all defensive 1st team. His DARKO D-DPM is insane (top 6 in league)and his defensive epm is 7th. His block to foul ratio is the best since Ben Wallace. He has only 9 games all season with 4+ fouls and as Nekias said he takes away a whole section of the court and the spurs are a top 7 defensive team when he is on the court. There is also great value when you average 4.7 stocks per game (Hakeem has the all time average of 4.8 stocks per game in a career, wemby will likely break that when his career is done).

      ​@@jbreezy519Giannis is almost never the primary defender, cause opponents don't want to attack where he is. Coaches know that Giannis is the best defender in Bucks, so they deliberately attack the other side. The attacker picks the defender via switches, and you can see in Bucks games that whenever Giannis is the primary defender, the attacker switches 90% of the time.
      Now, if it was anyone else than Giannis, then they'd get away with it, but Giannis is agile enough to help. That's why he's known as a help defender. And Giannis averaging something more than a block and a steal is massive, considering there are few times in a total game that his side is being attacked. Anyone else wouldn't average more than half a block a game.
