What do you value more? Regular Season MVPs or NBA Finals MVPs?

[Hacksaw Jim Thuggin]

DOESNT MATTER...IT WAS JUST A 7 GAME SERIES...

WORTHY WILL NEVER BE PUT AHEAD OF REGULAR SEASON MVPS LIKE D.ROB, MALONE, BARKLEY ETC

FMVP ONLY MATTERS WHEN DISCUSSING GOATS.



​

once again: says YOU

im not saying hes the greatest SF ever...but i am saying the fmvp means something

 

[Broke Wave]

too bad miami will win tonight

I strongly believe so too. Even without the obvious officiating fukkery that's inbound, there's no way Miami loses 2 straight at home.

this is my thinking too....this thing is going 7

 

[TKOK]

give me the finals mvp any day. means i've won a title.

 

[Hacksaw Jim Thuggin]

SAYS COMMON SENSE...
DURANT IS ALREADY SEEN AS THE SUPERIOR PLAYER AND HES ONLY 25 YEARS OLD.

HE WAS THE 3RD BEST PLAYER ON HIS TEAM...
HIS FMVP MEANS shyt.



​

the problem with a lot of you nikkas on the coli is that you erroneously think your opinion holds more weight than the next man's....you would be wrong...

i never said anywhere that james worthy was a superior player than durant...you said he was equal to horry...when clearly (atleast to me) he is not....

to me his fmvp(s) are superior to anything horry did....especially being able to latch onto the train of championship squads....particularly at the end of his career

Finals MVP because at least that mean you won a ring more than likely. There's a lot of regular season MVP's who dont have a ring.

 

[True Weltch Media]

Billups >>> Nash

Wade>>>Iverson

Worthy>>>Durant

Finals MVP's over Regular Season MVP's

 

[GreatestLaker]

Regular season MVPs without a doubt.

There were players that weren't even top 15 in the league and won FMVP. James Worthy, Tony Parker, Cedric Maxwell and Billups come to mind and they weren't the best players on their teams either.

Then there are players like Nash, Rose, Iverson etc who had no business winning the MVP.

Not every MVP or FMVP is the same. You have to look at how and why they won it to get the clear picture.

 

[killacal]

A reg season mvp gets more bonuses so it must be more valuable

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

I bet you there are plenty of MVP's out there who would have gladly traded in their MVP for a ring.

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Not all MVP's are the same. For example Chauncey's FMVP does not equal Wade's FMVP.

So if we can't even compare like MVP's it's hard to put different MVP's into perspective.

 

[Absolut]

Exactly what the title says brehs.....what is more important or puts 1 player over the next as far as all-time lists? Regular Season MVPs or NBA Finals MVPs?

Quick Examples

Steve Nash has 2 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 0 Championships or NBA Finals MVPs.
Chauncey Billups has 0 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 1 Championship and 1 NBA Finals MVP

Who gets the edge in history as the better player?

Allen Iverson has 1 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 0 Championships or NBA Finals MVPs
Dwyane Wade has 0 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 3 Championships and 1 NBA Finals MVPs

Who gets the edge in history as the better player?

Kevin Durant has 1 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 0 Championships or NBA Finals MVPs
James Worthy has 0 Regular Season MVPs, but he has 3 Championships and 1 NBA Finals MVPs

Who gets the edge in history as the better player?


If you say Nash, because of his MVPs, then you gotta also go with Iverson over Wade, and Durant over Worthy.

If you say Billups, because rings mean more, then you also have to say Wade over Iverson, and Worthy over Durant


Discuss

LOL @ the thought of billups being anywhere near nash as a player, or worthy being anywhere near durant as a player. MVPs or no, those comparisons arent even close. who gets the edge in history? durant or worthy? one guy made 5 straight all nba 1st teams, the other never sniffed a 1st team his whole career. pretty cut and dry who gets the edge
