Yeah.
Like you're putting them on the Wizards and like just like that, they're a top 10 defense.
I think if he played on the Wizards, he would win defensive player of the year unanimously.
Yeah, that's amazing.
Yeah, and I guess he's just advanced this quickly in his career.
And that is why he is the youngest defensive player of the year winner in history.
Because if you look at the previous two seasons... He was a runner-up as a rookie, wasn't he?
No.
Yeah, he what?
When they had the 22nd best defense.
I thought Rudy Gobert won, and Wemby said, well, you better get to win.
Was it last year?
He would have won it last year if he qualified.
Oh, okay.
That's surprising because the Spurs were the 22nd best defense in his first year.
Well, this year it's totally changed, and that's why it's generally a team award.
Oh, this team is really good at defense.
They're up in the rankings.
This year they're third.
So, yeah.
