Ibaka, James, Howard, Tony Allen all have their agruments, but no has had the impact Chandler has had...he's well been worth the money and is the primary reason why we're a playoff team.

Thats a good point, we went from being one of the worst defensive teams to one of the best and Chandler is the biggest reason why. We'd be lost without him, I was a little upset about us giving away our only PG (Billups) at the beginning of the season but I could give a **** about a Billsucks now
If it was a the best defensive player in the NBA, than he would'nt be in contention but because he does everything well and the way NY has gone from a laughable defense to an actual force is why i think without a doubt he is the DOP.
He isnt the best rebounder,shotblocker or 1 on 1 defender but he is good at all of them and his intangibles are the best in the NBA. He makes up for guys mistakes, he communicates and hustles every play.
Ibaka is a great defender but he plays for a team that every player has some defensive mentality on his own.The difference is that Chandler for the majority of the season was the only one playing defence and now he is pretty much holding the post on his own.
He totally deserves it but he will never get it.
why? it's because all of the real contenders have better stats than his.
Howard and LeBron are the main ones, and LeBron will get it.
I hate giving awards just for stats, sometimes it's not fair
Chandler is an f-ing beast.
I heart that guy, no homo.
Is the 6th seed far out of reach? If we make it that far, he'll have a chance.
5 star thread
I've beensaying this all yr, Howard's run has ended.
If he doesn't get it this yr it will be a travesty
+1.
I hope Grant Hill makes the All-Defensive team.
Keep this movement alive !
I respect Ibaka, Deng and the others, but Tyson is the DPOY - hands down!!!
