I get that you're a 76ers fan, but he didn't deserve it, and I fukks with Covington too. There were better forward candidates, especially since Embiid and Simmons either had more (the former) or near-equal (the latter) defensive impact for y'all.

Seriously, what the hell were all those voters thinking when they selected Murray - someone must've been hard at work getting his name out there.

Dejounte Murray a media favorite early in his career, they low key always raving about him, he wouldn’t make this team if he wasn’t a Spur.

He’s a great defender but I’m not putting him over Marcus Smart or Josh Richardson.

Especially Smart. :comeon:

Might as well have put Frank Ntlikina on the second team :shaq2:

Yes he does deserve it, Cov is a mastermind at getting through screens and blowing up pick and rolls, his deflections rate led the entire NBA and he guards 1-4 at an elite level. Not to mention top 3 in DRPM even ahead of JoJo. He's been masterful on the defensive end for years now and is just now getting his credit. I'm not gonna let ya'll shyt on everything he does for having a bad postseason. :francis:

Nah, you're giving him far, far too much credit. There's only a couple of players who are capable of doing that - Covington isn't one of them.

DRPM is a heavily flawed metric, and I dare hope you're not suggesting he has more defensive impact than Embiid.

He has been great on defense for a while now, I just don't think he deserved it over other forwards. I don't think it's a wrong selection like Murray's is, just that there were better candidates.

:dwillhuh:

I haven't even brought up his postseason performance.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree breh


And That last line wasn't really directed towards you, it was for other dudes in this thread discrediting him because of his bad postseason.

CP3 had 74 total points, only five behind Butler. He's still getting legacy votes.

To be fair, when Boogie went down their defense got A LOT better.

Pelicans defense before Boogie's injury - 106.9 DRTG (bottom-10 defense - #21)
Pelicans defense after Boogie's injury - 103.8 DRTG (top-10 defense - #6)

Word to @Left.A1
Still running around giving people half truths as usual I see ... no wonder you get shyt on so routinely around here :mjlol:

You lost. That's all there is to it. Funny how you were tagging me mentioning the Pelicans DRTG only a few games after his injury, and now you're coming with this "half truths" nonsense when your own logic works against your agenda.
