How is it kobe get's second place in defensive votes,but lebron comes in second in dpoy? can anyone explain this to me?

Because everyone Loves Lebron, I mean they have man crushes on him. He is the golden boy marketing dream for the NBA. Yet Lakers and Kobe are still the hottest item in the NBA. The bring in more money than any other NBA team. In China no one know who Lebron was it was all about the Kobe show. Its simple most of the voters vote on who they like not what they can do. Yes Leborn plays good defense but all his defence are like his dunks hight light reels for ESPN to yell to some stupid comment.

DPOY is voted on by the media.

All defensive teams are voted by the coaches who can't vote for someone on their own team.

well i have no problem with howard being dpoy because he deserved it,but lebron's defense was vastly overrated this year. he has nice weak side blocks,but for all of his quickness and strangth the guy hardly stays in front of anybody.
