    Default Whose single season is the best season ever by a player? (1979-80 and onwards)


    First row for each player; regular season numbers
    2nd row; the playoffs numbers
    3rd row; the playoffs numbers after first round which was a cake walk for them except Shaq who faced elimination game in '00 / just to put it in context more about when things get tough.

    *: Hakeem was also DPoY. That mark is there for it.

    Factoring in both regular season and playoffs

    '80 Kareem
    '83 Moses
    '84/'86 Bird
    '87 Magic
    '94 Hakeem
    '00 Shaq
    '03 Duncan
    '12/'13 LeBron

    And you could probably add like 4-6 seasons from Jordan

    you think lebrons 2013 was even close to being comparable to 2012?



    he bricked every shot beyond 5 feet for 6 straight games against sanantonio and lost the series before ray allens bail out. game 7 was his first good finals game

    2012 was his only impressive finals and the only choice ( a lockout colluded super team voided ring ) ...but his best none the less

    Leaving MJ out of this, I would give it to Hakeem 1993-94. Dude won MVP, DPOY and FMVP. The only player to EVER do that in a single season (Russell definitely would've had a few had they handed out DPOY and FMVP in his days). Plus, he had a lot of very good role players but no legit 2nd fiddle star that year too.
