I know my opinion is different than most. I just don't see a POY type player. I see a great player and an elite defensive player. He just doesn't strike me as the best in the game. Maybe my opinion is colored too much by his struggles against IU. He rebounded well, had a few blocked shots, but didn't score much. I've seen him score in other games, but I just don't think I'd have voted for him to be the best.
Agreed. Even his defense is overrated to an extent, as he likely isn't guarding the best opposing big. His help d is what makes him elite.
