David's Awards: 2008 Defensive Player of the Year

1. Kevin Garnett: KG's DPOY resume, like his MVP resume, is based less on numbers and more on intangibles, specifically changing the culture of the team, especially so on defense. The Celtics went from 17th to first in defensive efficiency in one year. He's their best defensive player and makes all his teammates play defense, too. Therefore, he's my pick.
