    Default If LBJ ends up with Back-2-Back "MVP Sweeps", He is LOCKED IN Top 7 GOAT

    LBJ = MJ & will definitely be in the rarified Air catagory IMO.

    Bird has 2 MVP sweeps.
    MJ has 4 MVP sweeps.
    Magic has 1 MVP sweep.
    Shaq has 1 MVP sweep. (should've had 2 if he wasnt robbed of reg sea MVP in 2001 that AI got)

    If MIA repeats as champs. & LBJ has 2 successive back-2-back Season MVP + FMVP yrs. Only 1990-1992 MJ has done this in the history. Shaq was clearly robbed of 2001 season MVP that went to AI.

    LBJ will be the only one next to MJ doing it in back-2-back 2 years in a row

    LBJ has definitely knocked off Kobe & Duncan for ever form that delicate 10th GOAT spot forever.

    You right !

    I mean LOCKED IN Top 8 GOATs.

    4 x Season MVPs
    2 x FMVPs
    2 x MVP sweeps (back-2-back years)

    thats unbelievable peak prime LBJ is having. Only MJ & Bird has done something like this in NBA history.

    LBJ will definitely have to be ranked above SHAQ in all-time GOAT list.

    But yes it would put him in the top 10. Not sure who it would knock out. But you forgot Hakeem, Duncan, Moses Malone, Kareem, Willis Read (Finals MVP started in 1969).

    Yes it would just solidify his ranking and move him up some slots.

    I think Shaq's laziness left a huge window open for LBJ by NOT winning DPOY even once.

    Shaq was the only lonely dominant inside the paint big man force btw 2000-2004.

    Hakeem is above shaq b/c of 1994 season: MVP + FMVP + DPOY all in single season.

    If LBJ collects a one DPOY title by age 32, He will guarantee himself Top 4 GOATs to ever touch Bball.

    If he does a repeat of last year I have no problem putting him at 10. His peak beats hakeems..
    Having a monster year and deserves MVP IMO.
    Shame he choked in 11 or we'd be talking a higher ranking, can't overlook that egg..

    Lebron has paid his dues when it comes to individual accolades and stats. He has some fantastic numbers, and plenty of MVP's to compete with the best of them. The only thing he needs right now are more championships and FMVP. If he wins championships he'll rate very, very high on that GOAT list.

    hakeem yeah but not barkley. Hes a liability on defense coz hes playing pf at that size. Lebron looks better coz of assists but based on my observation its the pure scorers and not all around players that wins in this league or else oscar wouldve been better than jordan. Iverson, arenas would be winners in this league.
