First off there are allot of great players in the NBA. We are going to have to limit this list to the top six, so lets get started. Let us begin with the MVP for the 2009-2010 season Lebron James. His numbers speak volumes. He was a very close second in the league in scoring at 29.7 with 7.3 rpg and a amazing 8.6 assist pg. OHHH my goodness how can you vote against Mr.James.
Next I would like to address Mr. Wade. This guy is as electrifying as anyone in the league. Like Mr. James he is the full package. His numbers also truly impressive, 26.6 ppg 6.5 rbg and a not too shabby at all 4.8 apg. He also has one of the most dominant performances in finals history, that anyone has ever seen and there is no argument for that.
How about Kevin Durant? The no.2 Draft pick just two short yrs ago (shout out to the trailblazers) is a matchup nightmare! He led the league in scoring at 30.1 ppg with 7.6 rpg and 2.8 apg. WOW!!! He actually averages more points and rebounds than anyone in this category!!!
Kobe Bryant. While averaging 27 ppg 5.4 rpg 5 apg Great numbers by any standard, but less boards than Wade. Less assist than Lebron, and less points than Lebron, Durant, and Carmelo! But check this out , against what many would agree was the best defense in the playoffs by far (Celtics) He averaged 28.5 ppg 8 rpg 3.8 apg and 2.1 steals. Not to mention winning the finals MVP and going home with his fifth championship trophy!!!
Dirk Nowinski's numbers make him a must to put in this conversation. 25 ppg 7.6 rpg and 2.7 apg. Allstar MVP like numbers. Like I try to tell my old girlfriends, don't hold my past against me. But Dirk you got your ass handed to you by a San Antonio team that later got swept by the Suns. Not to mention when you got to the Finals four years ago......well you know (see Mr. Wade) y'all know the rest!!!
Last but not least Carmelo Anthony. Amazing numbers 28.2 ppg 6.6 rpg 3.2 apg. He is not the defensive player that Kobe, Lebron, And Wade are which is a knock against him. Look at his playoff numbers. 30 ppg 8.5 rpg 3.3 apg although in a losing effort these playoff numbers show what a special talent this man is.
1. Kobe Bryant
2. Dwayne Wade
3. Lebron James
4. Kevin Dyrant
5. Carmelo Anthony
6. Dirk Nowinski
Let me explain why. First Off I know there are allot of Kobe haters out there. He might not be my first choice to go have a beer with but FINALS MVP nuff said!!!!! The numbers are there, actually went up in the playoffs. He is a five time champion and NBA all defense. Oh Yea look up the word clutch, guess who's picture is there Mr. Bryant. How are you going to argue with that. I know some of you will and I look forward to it.
D. Wade outstanding numbers I have actually seen him live more than any of the others, this dude is a bullshark! In big moments he is clutch he is a former champion who arguably put on the most dominant performance in NBA finals history!
Mr. James numbers are off the charts!!! I know some of you probably can't believe I have him in the Three spot. Well here's why. First no Bling then you can't possibly be King. Second The first two are definatly more clutch when it's important. Mr. James your numbers are mind boggling and you are impressive and a joy to watch but there is something about the lack of fire I saw in your eyes againt the Celtics that makes me give Bryant and Wade the nod over you. I always see the fire in there eyes.
Kevin Durant wow. Second year, scoring champ I think we all need to be very very afraid. He is only going to get better and arguably gave the Lakers the toughest test in the playoffs besides the Celtics of course.
Carmelo your numbers are outstanding but to me your leadership is Questionable. While you can dominate a game it seems like your team lacks leadership if Chauncy doesnt show up.
Dirk (see this years playoffs or 2006 finals) nuff said
Well there it is. Let me know what you think So I can show you that................... YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT LMAO
Peace and GOD BLESS
