And he's underselling it, he doesn't have MVP potential. He has GOAT potential. MVP is an absolute inevitability, injuries aside. The fun question is how many years before he's the MVP. I think at worst he gets one by year four. Per 36 numbers already: 25.7/12.8/4.3/4.2 blocks. If he gets 10% better each of the next two years and starts playing 36 min a year... his year 3 stats would be 31.09 pts, 15.49 rebs, 5.20 assists, 5.1 blocks. Nuts. If he stays health I think we're looking at a guy with Kareem numbers, 6 MVPs, 6 rings, 15 All NBA/defense type of stuff.

He needs to be traded immediately, Draymond mostly works because he has elite playmaking with elite defense, and the Spurs tried to get him there but his confidence and understanding of the game isnt there. Teams have now decided to completly leave him open to double Victor. Unacceptable, only players they should keep is tre jones as a backup and Vassel. Everyone else can go

I understand where shaq is coming from with this statement. As far as skillset for his size and length then yes. But play style totally different. I actually think the better comparison would be Bol and Chet. Now both Chet and Wemby is clearly superior to Bol imo but there are similarities to the things they can do given their physical build but play style Bol is more closer to Chet than Wemby. Just my opinion.

@@Ebriel0000000bro I don’t think yall understand that these two are gonna be on the same team this summer in the Olympics. France has created the ultimate Cheat Code on defense. Rudy and Wemby are gonna be the biggest defensive wall the world has ever seen. Both of them are CRAZY on defense. Idk how USA or any other country is gonna be able to score in the paint or drive to the basket with Rudy and Wemby both harassing people around the rim. Smfh
DPOY is a player award, not a team award.
Chet Holmgren is who he will be 5 years from now. Victor Wembanyama will be like Kevin Durant, Rudy Gobert, and Anthony Davis and potential for Kareem Abdul-Jabbar! He has the biggest bag of skills than any Player in a long time. Wembanyama will win Defensive Player of the year easily. 5 + blocks per game in his sleep. When he improves i can see video game type of blocks per game such as 15+
Defense is not just one on one even though Victor can guard 1-5. He also makes players think about shot around the basket and parameter. Draymond, you never ever could do that.
why not...who else get that kind of numbers? Top on blocks, high on rebounds, steals, and points....it about the numbers!
Maaan… dray said Raymar Morgan!! Shot out to my Spartan Dawgs! GoGreen!
i thought he'd get injured already. but he's holding up quite well.
the defense is 6th when hes on the court that has to matter too
How can someone be so good at basketball and communication? Draymond is insane
Come play w the Spurs!!!
I like this version of Draymond Green as opposed to the A hole hot head i see portrayed on the court . Not to say he isnt important contributor to his team
I wouldn’t put him as the DPOY of the year either but logically it makes no sense to blame him that the team is so bad on defense with him off the court that the teams overall defensive rating falls down so bad. We all know the stats with him on the floor vs not. I would probably still rather have someone like Giannis that can guard better on the perimeter but even that is tough to say since Wemby can move his feet aswell but can cover even more space then Giannis even if he lacks in foot speed. If Rudy Gobert is the comp then 1000% give me Wemby. I always prefer someone that can guard in multiple ways. Wemby is probably in the top 2-3 on that list.
cmon victor goes to gws here we goo 🥶🥶
Thank u so much Draymond
When I have seen title "Draymond Green breaks down Wemby" I was worried a bit
Do you think we spurs should bring back the DeMar DeRozan underrated passer and clutch player
Key word : PLAYER Defensive player of the year, not defensive TEAM of the year. He deserve it. Gobert got 2 for blocking shot , the Jazz weren’t on the top 10 best defensive team in the nba if I remember correctly, but I could be wrong about that.

i mean its the same thing with mvp. lukas probably not gonna win it because hes the 7th seed, kobe didn't win it in 06 because he was the 7th seed even though he averaged 35. its just how the league works. wembys getting the next 10, don't worry
A Gap ! Can you understand that Chet boys? It is D. Green who says that, he is objective
Spurs never put real effort into competing this year indicated by the minutes restriction and the deliberate choice not to have a pg. just like the old days national media wants to hate on the spurs and their deliberate process. Everyone is hating wanting the team to win now. Spurs know better and won’t be truly competitive until at least after next season. Patience is key on this one. We’re all witnessing something very special before our eyes. God loves the San Antonio spurs!
You re right he shouldnt get dpoy. YOUR BEST MATE RUDY SHOULD.❤
Preach Uncle Dray Wish u both the best from France NBA gonna be entertaining AF
Draymond full of good knowledge
Defensive "Team" Of The Year: Wolves. Defensive "Player" Of The Year: Wemby.
Bro, the reason why most of us can't really tell that there's a gap between chet and wemby is because it is too early in their careers for us fans, but for an NBA player who understands all the nuances of the game having played it day in and day out your whole life, you can spot those things before we see it. this is why i love the nba players who now offer comments and analysis for the game that we have seen, you guys break it down in a way that it is more palatable for us.

I say just get rid of the post season awards if they aren’t given to the right players. Only rookies should be able to win ROY. And the very best defender in the league(not the best defensive team as a whole put together bc it’s an individual award) should win DPOY .seems like common sense really ain’t common anymore
JOKER is no 1❤
Dray finally understands that Wemby videos = views
Imagine if he said that 3 days before Wemby made an all time NBA record Oh wait
He is not wrong. Could be younger than D.rose winning that MVP award.
How about giving some credit to the European Coaches that tought him and made him what he actually is. I crealy remember you, right before the begining of the season, talking about his impact as a ring protector but not so much on the other side because of the phisicality of the game and blablabal.... well there u go. Europeans play better..
Like we did not know that yet😂😂
I’m sure it was a shock when you tried to kick him in the hits and only hit his shin
2:02-2:07 damn, Luka was a skinny ass kid, barely even recognized him there from the pleasantly plump, cherubic man we see today.
Check the Spurs defense when he's on the floor vs when he's not on the floor. That alone is enough for DPOY. You think Rudy Gobert switched with Wemby is going to give the Spurs a better record as they are right now? Absolutely not.

Dray Wemby and Chet are in rookie seasons. Let’s see who’s better in 3/4 years. Then we’ll know. No one saw Steph being Steph in his rookie season. I don’t know if we should compare, and say there’s a noticeable gap in a rookie’s season.
Nobody should Listen to a bully!
Should win dpoy award
He’s only insanely gifted because of his height ! He’s suppose to be able to block shots ! If he was 6’5 he would not be nearly as good .
24th best defense? Not wemby's fa7lt his teamates suck! The dude is leading the league in blocks, I've seen teams shoot mostly jumpers when he is in there and not go in the paint, and the shots he is not blocking, he is affecting the shots so 🤷♂️
What's the deal with all Americans who canot say the N in WembaNyama? They all say Wembayama. Is this a problem linked to the rarity of words with more than three syllables in English? Try making triple doubles with the word Wembanyama, guys, it shouldn't be that hard.
OMG, AT first i was liké WTF this youtuber IS using dG name!?!! But finaly i guess its légit!!! 😅 👍🏀❤️
Ahhh he is talking about the kid of Alperen Sengun. He got a talented daddy.
And just to be clear, I love Draymond Green, antics and all. He brings a fire that the Warriors need. But he’s wrong on DPOY.
Yeah because we needed Draymond to tell us that Wemby is “just different” lol what an unoriginal, unhinged bozo
He has the best defense by stats, that makes him defensive player of the year? Past few games his offense isn’t all too great. He needs more strength to finish after foul
There's for sure a gap between Vic and Abe Lincoln but it's not a chasm
Didn't D.G. said a little while back that Wemby not going to be coming to nba and do what he wants he and P.G. never said he so called friend nee about Wemby and Luka funny guy he must be a comediante 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As far as DPOY....I'm gonna disagree. I understand that Bball is a team sport but this award is an individual one. When you compare how Victor changes the defensive rating of his team when he is on the court, versus the change Gobert makes that is important to me. What does HE DO when he is on the court so I think he should be in the discussion of DPOY, Serious Discussion. By your argument if your team sucks you should not be considered for any individual award.
Crazy how Green aged all of a sudden. He is going to look like a grandpa balling with the young kids when he retires, just like Cuttino Mobley
