This is why LeBron is the MVP or at the VERY least 2nd behind CP3. Everytime anyone says anything negatively about him, he drops a triple-double. Crybaby=triple double. Overrated=triple-double. Just like the fans earlier in the year. The opposing team knows he is going to get the ball but cant do anything to stop it. It is amazing. I hope someone on Boston does it too, but I doubt it seeing they are mostly smart veterans.
I hope to see Cleveland vs LA in the finals with LeBron whipping up on Kobe. That would be fun.
LeBron is amazing, but he should come in 3rd or 4th in the MVP race.
But, the main point of this whole thing is how stupid are the Wizards? you should know better than to poke a bear with a stick! "Calling out" a LeBron or a Kobe usually leads to that player making sure you get posterized.
Can Washington and Haywood be any more stupid? Why do they keep egging on LeBron? When LeBron gets done with Washington on Wednesday, Washington is going to be "LeGone!!"
I give BIG props to LeBron. He is taking it, shaking it off, and asking for more. An MVP player no doubt. Any team that play Cleveland need to recognize and give him respect. There has been co-MVP's in the league one upon a time. Stockton and Malone if I remember correctly. Maybe this time Kobe and Lebron. ROLLING.
How about Lebron wins something other than a rookie of the year award before you crown him "king". Lebaby had about 4 BLATANT fouls that weren't called and another 4 trips to the line he didn't deserve.
The kid is GOING TO rule this league. but he doesn't now. Jordan earned his jordan calls, lebron crys EVERY TIME he misses a shot as though he's a 10 year vet and deserves it.
He compares himself to Jay-Z...which is ironic...because jay-z became jay-z through LONGEVITY. Lebron's been in this league for what 4 years? and he's a champion because of what? because he got to the finals? that's it? he just had to get there? he didn't even have to win a single game? the eastern conference was pure garbage last year.
He acts like he's taking the highroad...then says the Wizards are trying to hurt him? you can't have it both ways. you can't act like you're a tough guy who would "rough stevenson up on the playground" and then cry about them trying to hurt you EVEN THOUGH you've CLEARLY been getting ALL the calls as a result?!?!?!
Did you see that foul on Caron Butler when lebron shot a 3 and he didn't even touch him? did the media say a SINGLE WORD about that? no...why? cuz he's the golden boy. Don't give me this crap about a guy being unstoppable when he's playing against a crappy defense AND getting all the calls.
no chance they get passed the second round. period.
and don't start a thread about MVP when the guy you're talking about isn't even in the top 3
Psssssst skins...you sound stupid. We didn't gloss LeBron "King James" ESPN did. Unlike Gil, who glossed himself "hibachi" because he heats up fast? Maybe a name change is in order....howbout "Mason"....it fits considering all the bricks he keeps throwing up.
I hate that argument that "somebody called him out so he went off and ruled the game". If he truly was an MVP, he wouldn't need name calling to make him get a triple double, he should do it every game, like how Chris Paul owned Dallas. Now that's impressive. Being an MVP means being the best, not just being really good when someone calls you out. I think LBJ is good, but not MVP deserving this year. Not compared to others in the league.
First of all you dont know what your talking about because if lebrons not in the top 3 for mvp rankins who would be the third? Kevin Garnett? maybe him. i think your just a bitter man that is ticked off because the Wizards cant win more than 3 games in the playoffs over the last 3 years. i would be bitter if i were you too, if my hometown team had 3 all-stars and they couldnt win a playoff series i would be ticked off too. and another thing i would stop talking about Lebron being a wimp when every time jamison gets bumped he throws his arms up like he was just mugged, so please shut up about lebron being a wimp. plus lebron doesnt get half the fouls he should get because he is so big. and get your facts straight on the years he has been in the league, this would be his 5th year. plus your talking about the cavs not winning a game in the FINALS when your team didnt win a game in the playoffs. and dont give me this crap about your team being injured because if i am not mistaken (which trust me im not) you will remeber that your wizards still had an all-star in the lineup (Jamison). and dont talk about my teams chances until your team wins something. well have fun in the offseason. it is coming soon for at least your team.
bmdeike - If you've followed the NBA this year, you saw the LeBron AVERAGED 30 pts. 8 reb., and 8 assists. Your argument that he only puts out the effort when called out doesn't cut it at all. Back up your argument with facts. LeBron should be the MVP this year, but won't, because Kobe has never won it and LA has some players to complement him, something Cleveland's general manager can't seem to get done.
His definition of valuable must not be the same as ours, red.
Bottom Line, the Lake Show would (thanks to Pau) go on had Kobe been gone. Yes, he is pound-for-pound the best in the league right now, but not as valuable to the Lakers as LeBron is to the Cavs. CP3 is as valuable though.
I'd still give a co-MVP to LeBron and Kobe though. KB8---I mean KB24 needs his shine. If he got it, I wouldn't be angry at all. Now, CP3, while valuable, isn't as Valuable to their team as LeBron is to his. The Cavs won ZERO games without him this year (0-6). That stat should be enough to prove his value to other fans...at least knowledgable or unbiased ones.
