Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 3676509, member: 7894"] Okay with most of these, but really not sure about Parker as DPOY. Grabbing rebounds doesn't necessarily mean she's playing great defense. A look at past winners shows a heavy bias against guards/wings. Weatherspoon and Beard won a couple. Not quite sure which position you'd consider Catchings, she won a bunch. Swoopes won several. But quite a few between Leslie/LJ/Fowles/Griner, then Howard and now Parker (maybe?). Probably I'm a little bit biased but I'd really like to see Alysha Clark get this. I'm not sure if she was even in the running. Actually, who were the leading candidates? Sparks cranked up the hype machine for Parker and it seems like everybody just bought into it. [/QUOTE]
