That's right I said it LeBron is the true MVP and I will tell you why. All this talk about DWade is just that talk.I am here to put to the rest all this talk about who is better and who means the most to his team.After reading this there will be no doubt in your mind as to who is the true MVP
- What is the true definition of the term MVP? Is it the best player in the league? Is it the player that is having the best statistical year?Is it the player that means the most to his team? Is it the player that makes his teammates better or is it the best player on the best team with the best record?
- I think that it is a combination of all of the above. The MVP represents not only the face of his team, but the face of the league.
- With that said DWade is eliminated from the discussion for obvious reasons. The Miami Heat at 36-30 are not only the 5th seed in the JV conference but if they were in the west they wouldn't even be in the playoffs. For all of DWade's exploits there are a number of players who are doing the same thing but only better. I don't see any public support for Brandon Roy who's team at 41-25 not only has a better record but plays in a tougher conference. The Blazers have been without their #1 pick for most of the past two years, but Roy gets no love.
- Joe Johnson of the Hawks gets no love either and his team is not only 39-28, but they are ahead of the Heat and no one in the eastern conference wants to play them in the playoffs. Where is the Joe Johnson for MVP support? I know he is not the chosen one, so he gets no consideration.
- Where is the Chauncey Billups dick riding at? His Denver Nuggets are 42-25,1/2 game behind the #3 seed and only 3 games behind the #2 seeded Spurs. Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't the Enver Nuggets(THERE IS NO D IN DENVER)the #8 seed last in the same conference before Chauncey got there. If the MVP award is all about improving your team then Chauncey is your man. You gave that shit to Nash twice didn't you, because you said he made his teammates better. What's wrong with Chauncey Bill Walton? Nothing that's why the MVP voting is always bullshit and political.
- When Larry Bird won his MVP awards he had his detractors who argued that Magic Johnson was the better player. When Magic won his MVP awrds there were those who believed his Airness Michael Jordan deserved to win. Jordan didn't win MVP even though he was clearly the most talented player in the league, because his team didn't win. Once the Bulls became title contenders then Michael started winning MVP trophies. There were two years where Jordan won championships but he didn't win MVP because it went two Charles Barkley and Karl Malone who's teams had better records those years. So from what I gather the MVP award has always went to the best player on the best team that year record wise. Steve Nash won back to back MVP awards and he wasn't even the best player on his team. What up with that?
- With that said Dwade and everyone not named Kobe,LeBron, or Dwight are eliminated.
- Now on to why LeBron is the real MVP........LeBron has taken a Cleveland team that I figured was a #3 or 4seed at best and has them fighting the Lakers for the best record in basketball. I like LeBron because in a very short time he has learned how to play the game and master the art of manipulation. In the NBA perception is everything and people believe everything that they are told. The next time LeBron plays Dwade,Carmello,Chris Paul,Chris Bosh, or Dwight Howard watch his body language. He is smiling, laughing and joking, while all the while busting their ass. He is killing them, but because they are boys there is know animosity or hatred. They aren't intimidated but they are not matching his will to win, because it doesn't appear that they are being dominated. It doesn't seem like LeBron is killing them or rubbing it in. Michael did the same thing to Patrick Ewing and Charles Barkley. They never went at him 100%, because it didn't seem like he was attacking them because they were friends and he was smiling and laughing with them. That's called psychology 101. Sucker them in and silently destroy them and before you know it game over and you have won without making it personal. I'm not going to talk about numbers, because we all know LeBron is a walking triple double. He is the most physically gifted player in the league right now. He does stuff that Michael and Kobe could never do like that crab dribble and carrying 4 defenders on his back to the rim and dunking on them. He is a one of a kind player. LeBron leads because he does so without putting himself above his team. LeBron knows how to get his players to fall in line without reminding them that he is King James. Even though his team is only 2-5 against the Celtics, lakers, and the Magic he is clearly the real MVP............The last point that I am going to make about LeBron is he is learning now what it takes to truly win. Basketball is like chess you have to think two three moves in advance. Unlike Dwade Lebron has learned that the game of basketball is not like figure skating. There are no judges and you receive no p0ints for style. He is learning to take what the defense gives him and it doesn't matter if you drop 30 0r 15 as long as you win. Bill Russel has the rings. Wilt has the records. What do you want? At the end of the day it is about winning. The stats just add graphics to the story. Kenny Smith said it best right now Kobe is the best player, LeBron is the best teammate and Dwade is the best highlight. With that said LeBron is the real MVP of the eastern conference.
- The Mamba Kobe Bean Bryant aka KB24 is the real MVP of The League. Right now Kobe has taken a team full of guys who I keep hearing are all stars to the best record in the league while doing less individually. KB24 plays with Derek Fisher a solid PG, but not an all star. Remember two years ago Derek Fisher was Darren Williams back up now he has to guard CP3,D. Williams,Tony Parker,Steve Nash,Devin Harris, Mo Williams etc.. I still love you Fish, but you are not an all star.
- KB24 plays with Luke Walton. Other than being Bill Walton's son I don't know what the hell he does. My fault yes I do he fouls because he is constantly out of place,shoots ill advised fade aways,and turns the ball over. He is worse than Kwame Brown. I hate Luke and he is no all star.
- KB24 plays with Lamarr Odom. He has all the talent in the world, but his nicknames are crackhead and casper, because when you need him the most he is never there. I like Odom but he is no all star.
- Kb24 plays with Pau Gasol who is a two time all star. Guess what Mo Williams,Big Z, and Wally Szczerbiak are all stars who play with Queen James.
- KB24 plays with Andrew Bynum who if he stayed healthy has the potential to be an all star.
- Trevor Ariza,Jordan Farmar,Sasha Vujacic, Shannon Brown,D.J. Benga,Adam Morrison and Josh Powell comprise the bench. Plenty of all stars right.
- KB24 unlike LeBron has not mastered the art of manipulation. When his team plays well they are billed as the most talented team in basketball. When the Cavs play well it is because LeBron is leading a bunch of scrubs to victory. Mo Williams dropped 40 and the caption said Lebron leads Cavs to victory with support from Mo. The next time a Laker other than Kobe drops 40 will be the first time.
- Kobe and LeBron are playing at similar levels but they are playing different games with different styles. Kobe is trying to win games while trying to get everyone in involved. He is not chasing numbers only championships. He could catch DWade in scoring if he wanted to , but that's not his goal. LeBron wants the MVP and a ring. Kobe wants the ring and the MVP if it happens. LeBron would be happy if he won MVP and nothing else. Anything less than a ring and Kobe's season is a failure.
- Other than Kobe being a more complete player the difference between the two is the competitive fire that burns in Kobe. When Artest started talking shit to Kobe he took it personal and busts his ass. No smiles or huggs only fade away after fade away. Dagger after dagger. When KB24 hurts you he looks at you like your inferior and you don't belong. He intimidates defenders and therefore there is a hatred and anomisity built in for a player like that. When the Raptors talked shit to LeBron he went off, but he laughed with them and joked with them about it. Kobe will never forget those who have wronged him and he uses it for motivation. LeBron moves on and just loves everybody. For this reason only Kobe will never get the love LeBron gets, because he would rather have you fear him and respect him than love him. Kobe is the ultimate assassin and for this reason only LeBron and him are playing two different games.
- Kobe wants rings and respect. LeBron wants MVP'S, rings and love. Neither player is wrong, but a killer instinct and a reliable jumper is all that is keeping LeBron from dominating.
- KOBE BEAN BRYANT IS THE REAL MVP OF THE LEAGUE AND LEBRON QUEEN JAMES IS THE REAL MVP OF THE EASTERN CONFERENCE.
- YOU KNOW IT'S THE TRUTH. IF I'M WRONG TELL ME!
