Ha ha ha Chris. Funny guy.
Oof. Serge Ibaka? Only if they give the award exclusively for weak side help blocks.
If the Timberwolves survive injuries and move their way into the playoff picture, I could see Andre Kirilenko receiving some votes. He’ll never win playing in the same league as Dwight Howard, but coaches and players respect what AK47 brings to the court.
Should still have been Dwight last year, will be Dwight this year injuries permitting.
