    Ironically I have two touted as some of the more physically imposing players to ever play the game...

    Lebron and Wilt

    But let us take the bait

    In 2014 Lebron averaged 28/7/4 with 2 steals on 57% shooting

    In 2015 Lebron averaged 36/13/9 with 1.3 steals on 40% shooting

    Now Lebrons fg% is very AI but he also missed his 2nd and 3rd option.

    Those are some godly finals numbers.

    When you troll, at least be good at it.

    why is that ironic? Do you understand the basic difference between choking/mental and physical?

    I'm not trolling. Who cares how many points Bron statpads during those years he still choked when it mattered most, no excuses.

    2007 Bron is definitely in my top 10. I gave 07 bron a little slack because of the circumstances and it was his first time with a less stacked team.

    Big bron fan here but when you CHOOSE who you are going to play with and form a super team only to choke in the finals, then you deserve to be labeled a loser. In 2011, 2014, and 2015, Bron choked.

    First of all, if the topic is about "choking" in the Finals, in an MVP season,...well, Chamberlain was a MONSTER in his '67 post-season and Finals.

    If it is about players who have won MVPs that "choked" in the Finals...hell, Bird in '81, and '85. KAJ in '84, '88, and '89 (as well as being crushed by Moses in '83.) You could make a case for Duncan in '13. Kobe in '04, and '08. Lebron in '07 and '11. And I'm sure there would be others.

    And yet MJ never lost a finals when he won MVP and was in the finals.
    Go figure.

    [COLOR="DarkRed"]2004 Finals (over the 4 losses)[/COLOR]
    Kobe : 20-ppg on 42%TS + 3.75-apg / 3.50-tov

    Kobe needed 86 shots + 20 free throws to score 80pts over those 4 games.

    Go figure.
    But was 0-6 against Bird in his post-season career, including a series in which he shot .417 from the field (and a 9-35 FG/FGA closeout game), and 1-3 against Dumars, which included QUITTING on his team in a pivotal game five of a series in which his team would lose in six games.

    Of course, he won six titles with rosters that went 55-27 without him.
