The NBA officially announced that Green Guard Smart was named the 21-22 Defensive Player of the Season.
The official website then announced the specific votes, Smart received 37 preferred votes with a total score of 257 points, Bridges 202 points, Gobert 136 points, and Adebayo 128 points.
"Glove" Payton personally went to the Green Army training ground to present Smart with the award.
It is worth mentioning that Smart is also another defender since Payton in the 1995-96 season, DPOY. Before the DPOY selection, "Glove" Payton had been voting for Smatra to support him in winning the DPOY.
By the way, with the help of yesterday's green army defense durant, let's take a look at smart and green army defense as a whole.
Yesterday, Durant shot 9-of-24 from the field, shooting 37.5 percent from the field, 1-of-5 from three-point range, shooting 20 percent from the field, and making six turnovers. Not only are the shots inaccurate, but there are also many mistakes. This stemmed from the Fact-Keeping Army laying a net for Durant.
For the first time, they let Go of Brown and clamped down, causing Durant to make a mistake.
The second time, Durant passed the Green Army defending him, but the eyes of the three players in front of him were on him, and he made mistakes and mistakes in his busyness.
The third time, Durant was driven into the encirclement, and Smart took advantage of the encirclement and Durant's imbalance to make a successful steal.
……
The data shows that Gervay defended Durant 1 of 5, Brown defended Durant 4 of 1, and the two tough generals defended him to 2 of 9. Tatum also defended Durant with 2 of 6. In the first half, Durant was 2 of 10, and both Gwei and Brown defended him to 0 of 5!
The Green Army can't defend Durant like this, but can Irving be so godlike in the next game? If Simmons doesn't come back, the Nets are dangerous this round.
