He was the best player in the league last season and still didn't win MVP. He's the best player in the league this year and there's a chance he might not win it.
I think the league needs to be like the NFL and have MVP and a OPOY. Because id still argue that a Howard or Durant is more valuable to their teams than Lebron is to Miami. Lebrons stats reign suprme and the Heat are obviously better with him but they'd still be a great team without him, as they still looked great without Wade. Hell, even Bosh won them a game by himself vs the Hawks when the other two were out with injuries. I just think a MVP needs to unquestionably be head and shoulders better than the rest of the guys on their team.
And again, you have your stats but overall you were stating an opinion. Stats don't win MVPs alone. Some people look at surrounding talent(me for example), some look at records and some look at stats. There needs to be more black and white with the MVP selection but unfortunately there's not.
Lbjs the best player in the league and that's not going to change IMO. But that doesn't make him MVP
Exactly how I see it!
Derrick might not win it again, when I think about that we still won games without him and most important: we almost beat Miami and Boston without him! That is going to lower his chances!
Lebron has absolutely amazing stats. Now is the question how you wanna see it: Do you say he plays with 2 other stars, so he doesn´t deserve it or do you say hell he makes those stats EVEN with two other stars on his team!
CP3 just turned the whole Clippers franchise around! Absolutely an MVP candidate!
Kobe is the leading scorer, so he´s automatically a candidate as well.
I can´t say much against Durant, I´ve seen to little of him this year. I just saw the highlights of his clutch shots, he might be the one whose plays were most important for the team´s record!
Howard is out of the race and I don´t know if he should win DPOY again!
