MVP award. Lebron arguing that he's the real MVP. Is he?

Lol Lebron, and it's not even close. Curry is a one dimensional, lucky, ref-groomed twink.

You bandwagoners will eat crow after my Thunder crushes this overblown hype that NBA throws every few years when a new player starts playing well for a year or two. LMFAO.

Your grandpa impregnated your mother and you popped out.
 
If you're the true MVP, your game should speak for itself. You shouldn't have to publicly whine about it.
 
There's definitely a case for Lebron. Curry is the best shooter on the planet, but Lebron is still the best all around player in the game.
 
The award should be MOP. Nobody cares who is most valuable. Only who is best. Curry was clearly most outstanding or best player. An argument can certainly be made that LeBron is most valuable.

This is probably about right. Though I still think curry was plenty valuable to his team.
The warriors would have won a lot of games without curry (they have lots of good players) but no where near 73. That number is staggering.

The cavs would have won a lot of games without lebron too (He has some really good teammates too) but not 57 (iirc).

They are both very valuable and lebron could very well have a better playoffs and out play him in the playoffs and if that's the case then he will get the mvp for the finals/playoffs.

But as for regular season, what curry did was have one of the best individual seasons ever and break lots of individual all time records and have his team win 73 games.
Curry's regular season was special. The type that we won't see for a long time (I mean when was the last time a team one 73 games. I don't think we will see that again soon).

LeBron had a great regular season this year. So did leonard and durant and westbrook and others.

Curry's season was different and unique and stood out.

I think we mostly agree. Bottom line, every sports league should change the name of the award to MOP. That's really what voters are voting for and valuable is next to impossible to measure anyway. Best is easier to measure and it's what people care about.
 
Heard lebron saying that irving could be the mvp too
 
In a pick up game, I would pick Lebron.


There. I said it.



But this only happens if that one certain player is already taken:

























Kawhi Leonard
 
Kawhi is arguably the best player in the league skill wise, but he showed in the OKC series that he can't take over a game. He all but disappears in clutch time and seems to have little to no intensity on the floor at all times.

So picking him over Lebron? Lol naaa

Lebron James, Kawhi Leonard, Dwayne Wade. All in the MVP talk with Steph.

Steph just won it outright (retarded btw) because of the media hype and the historic season.

What you do here is take each of those players named out of their respected teams and see how they fare.

My guesses would be :

Cavs - This is tricky because whatever team Lebron is on in the East is going to be the powerhouse. That's the most telling thing in the NBA. Whatever team he goes to, goes to the finals. So no telling where Cavs would be without him. A lottery team? A guest team? Nothing above that though.

Heat - Probably wouldn't be in the playoffs, The bulls would've likely gotten in without D-Wade on the Heat tbh.

Spurs - Likely battling with Clippers for the third/fourth spot without Kawhi. They are still a well-oiled machine and would rely more on Parker. Not nearly as good obviously but they'd still be a force in the top of the west.

GSW - With just Klay and Green, I still think they'd be much like Spurs without Kawhi. Battling for third/fourth spot in the top of the west.

Just my opinion though.

Kevin and Westbrook are up there skill wise with those guys, arguably better, but since they are both on the same team it's really difficult to say either are MVP worthy tbh.

I agree with this.
I have durant, curry, and lebron as the top three guys in the league.

Westbrook and Leonard are on the next level imo. Very close to those top three. (There might be a, couple others on this level too. Maybe cp3. Maybe The Brow. In fact I definitely put the brow in there. Maybe harden.)

The scary thing about Leonard is he was a roleplayer sculpted by the Spurs to be a superstar. The fact he's improving every year at rapid rates is a bit worrisome heh.

Lebron > Durant > Leonard is my top 3. CP3 I think is certainly up there, he's just so injury prone.

James Harden is extremely overrated and was perfect in his spot on OKC - he thought he was a superstar and now look what happened lmao.
