LeBron the heavy MVP favorite yet again

[Trollsmasher]

seems logical - if things go as expected, Cavs are primed for 62-64, maybe even 66 wins... even if he plays less minutes, it could still be enough

[JerrySeinfeld]

This dude's marketing campaign is unreal

yup. from the media using the return to cleveland to paint him as a hero, to him shooting sub 40% in the finals while playing like shit in crunchtime and getting handed another Finals L and getting praised as if he's MJ, the media's love and affection for LeBron will never cease to amaze me.

Like last year, when over 90% of basketball analysts pick LeBron as the MVP favorite and he's not even one of the top 3 players during the year, it's clear that the media is in bed with Bronny Bron

[JerrySeinfeld]

seems logical

I mean kinda, but just because he's the only MVP candidate not in the Western Conference doesn't mean he's the favorite.

Do you really see LeBron having an MVP type of regular season again? With how much we've been hearing these past 2 years about how it's crucial that he saves himself during the regular season and all of that.

For someone who thinks ESPN is so full of shit OP seems to spend a lot of time on their website.
Keep making them boys rich Simon.

Davis will be the NBA's best player next year and possibly league MVP.

[kennethgriffin]

LeBron is still the best player in the game.

a) he didnt have the best stats

b) he didnt have the best PER

c) he didnt win mvp

d) he didnt have the top record

e) he didnt win the title

f) he didnt win finals mvp

g) he didnt win the scoring title

h) he didnt win the espy for best nba player

i) he couldnt even hit over 40% in the finals



yet lebron fans will tell you that beyond a shadow of a doubt lebron james is the best player in the nba



funny... i remember year after year lebron fans would always say one of the fallowing






a) kobes not the best because he doesnt have the best stats

b) kobes not the best because he doesnt have the best PER

c) kobes not the best because he didnt win mvp

d) kobes not the best because he didnt have the top record

e) kobes not the best because he didnt win the title

f) kobes not the best because he didnt win finals mvp

g) kobes not the best because he didnt win the scoring title

h) kobes not the best because he didnt win the espy for best nba player

i) kobes not the best because he couldnt even hit over 40% in the finals





but when lebron does any of these things. its the reason hes the best


when kobe does any of these things. it doesnt matter


when both dont do either of these things .... lebrons the best anyway.

That ETHER will obliterate souls.

And the full denial will absolutely kill them for a lifetime.

Well he is still the best player in the league. Outshined the MVP of the league in the finals as well.

If youre playing the odds, you have to pick Lebron if for no other reason than his history of being nearly impervious to injury. He sat out a couple weeks last year with a supposed injury, but I think that was more from the emotional fatigue/exhaustion of the huge whirlwind around his return. Other than that, the dude NEVER goes on the DL.

Curry is one ankle twist away from missing months. Durant is coming off injury. You could even argue guys like Harden and Davis are statistically DUE for an injury.

But not Lebron. He is too BIG. He has the right kind of size. Hes an alpha where it counts, and thats what keeps him on his feet

[Rose'sACL]

except that the people speculating are the people who are also voting for the award.. they are going into the season with a biased opinion.. ESPN drives the entire MVP media campaign.. so many MVP voters work at ESPN..

how does the reigning MVP come in at #5 after leading his team to a championship.. like what in the actual fucc..

tell me again, why should anyone place curry in top 3 with kd, lebron and davis most probably healthy going into the season?
Go and check votes for mvp last season. did lebron win because he was supposed to according to these guys? most of these guys voted for curry or harden so why are you so angry?

Best player on the team with the best record in the league coming off an MVP and NBA championship..

but I guess the criteria has changed again this year..


KD barely played last year and what exactly has Davis done to be ranked ahead of Curry.. does he get pity points for allowing Curry to drain game winning shots in his grill..

what have they done to be ranked ahead of Curry..

[kennethgriffin]

westbrook, harden or anthony davis will win mvp this year
