Should Marion claim a Defensive Player of the Year award?


he hasnt been ever mentioned a Defensive First or Second teamer which is interesting considering his stats. Let me present my 2 cases....


Case 1: At the moment he is averaging 2 steals and 1.6 blocks per game. great numbers for someone who is only 6'7. Case 2: A lot of people are saying Dirk deserves MVP. Dirk is shooting over 50% this year. in the 3 games they played this year Marion defended him into....

(game 3)56 mins - 11/28FG and 3 turnovers - Suns win
(game 2)40 mins - 8/20FG and 2 turnovers - Mavs win
(game 1)43 mins - 11/19FG and 4 turnovers - Mavs win

The numbers may not stand out to you, but a 6'7 player holding a 7 footer to these numbers is pretty amazing. this of course is just on case against the best player in the L. lets not forget Marion's work on other key offensive players also. Does Marion deserve DP of the Year? How about at the very least a first team selection???

I am a pretty crappy pitcher when I start; last time I started, I gave up 4 ER in 2 innings. another time, i gave up 5 in the first inning. However, in relief, i dominate; this season, as a closer for my hs team, I have a 0.00 era with 15 SO in 14 IP. Why is this? I don't have a closer's fastball (max out at 76), my curve is decent, and my change is terrible...

How did the wrestlers get ready for there matches if the fans voted? Or did the people working for WWE just make up the percentage of the votes?

Our son is 14 and a good pitcher, his dad does not want him to pitch till later years, he is afraid of injury to his arm. Do you think pitching 4 innings every 4th game could damage him, if he is using correct technique. Never heard of any other father not letting his son pitch?
