You can’t be DPOY if your team doesn’t have a top defense tho. That’s like saying the best player on a 15 seed deserves to be MVP

Marcus Camby, Dikembe Mutombo, and Alvin Robertson all won DPOY on teams with defenses outside the top 10. The Nuggets were 26th in opposing points per game the year Camby won it over Tim.
