I'm confused, there is no way Cleveland was a "super-team" in the sense that they were stacked, they won a lot of regular season games but so did Dallas for years. But Bron still won the MVP. Of course you have to have team success, but all those wins in the EC weren't THAT impressive when you see how bad the Conference was. (I'd have to see their record against the west). A better argument would have been, imo, that with that same team in the West, Bron is a superstar on a team playing for 4-6th seed.

Nash won two MVPs with...Amar'e, Olajuwon with Vernon Maxwell and Drexler, Dirk with Jason Terry, I mean we can flip the great teamate argument the other way. I don't believe anyone lately has had such a stacked team from top to bottom as Bron, I might be wrong but I don't see it.

Kobe was hated only because he's Kobe, he's been hated since he came in the league, and hated whether he won or not, so he's not even in the discussion imo. T-Mac is ridiculed for that statement of "finally being in the 2nd round" and for becoming :flabbynsick:, no one HATES T-Mac. And never have I heard people talk slick about Garnett when he was in Minny, if anything people saw him as a "good guy" who was "loyal" (remember that teary-eyed intw with Thompson?), if anything people started hating when he won in Boston.

:what:

:aicmon: The most valuable player on the best team in the league is the MVP. Period.

It's not that he's just the best player in the league, but he leads the best team in every fukking statistical category.
When Kobe was the best player in the league, he didnt lead the lakers in rebounds or assists. LeBron does both. Best player in the league, on the best team in the league, and leads that team in all categories equals MVP. Just how that shyt works.

:dwillhuh: are you saying your opinion =fact :laff::laff: valuable doesn't have to equal best .if you can't understand that then you just want to argue

But value connotes worth. What is more worthy than the best player on the best team with the best numbers? What's your definition of value? My main issue isn't with the best player in the league BUT the Best Team. Isn't it all about winning? So if the person on that BEST team leads that team in all statistical categories, How isn't he the most valuable. We giving bonus points to The best player on a not so good team now?:usure: It would be one thing, if a player was being carried by that team, but if he leads in EVERY STATISTICAL CATEGORY, that implies he is the reason that team is the best in the league. And I never said my opinion is fact, I implied that's how they system works. Historically, the best player with great stats on top team wins the mvp. Deny that if you want, but the voters will show that i'm correct :yeshrug:

You struggled mightily in the middle of they year with Jason :old: Kidd hurt. He the MVP? Value must be backed up with stats to hold any weight with the voters.
