Why? It's not like Jordan ever deserved one either. Not saying Jordan was not a great defensive player, though, as he runs circles around Lebron defensively. He was the best on the ball defender on the planet until Pippen hit his stride. You could argue Cooper but Jordan was definitely 1A. Rodman, DRob, and Hakeem either weren't in the league or hadn't become dominant defenders when Jordan won his DPotY. I mean, Mark Eaton won it the year after he did.
