A: Well, if nothing else, those matchups against DeAndre Jordan, who beat him out for first team, should be fun next season. And in this case, I do believe that Hassan got shortchanged. It's one thing when you have an award such as Defensive Player of the Year, which is not position specific. You can make an argument that Kawhi Leonard and Draymond Green had more opportunities to impact a game defensively, because they did not have to wait for someone to come into the paint. But when the balloting is position specific, it is hard to argument that any center was more impactful in the paint this past season than Hassan. I do wonder if some in the media balloting backed off Hassan because he still was a reserve at a time when some submitted their ballots, with Jordan a starter throughout the season for the Clippers. I had Hassan first team on my ballot and do believe that this well could add to further motivation down the road, as I'm sure his coaches will impress upon him.
