Should LeBron James be the MVP?

yes!!! lebron has 4 or 5 triple doubles this year. this shows that he works on all ends of the court. he scores well, he passes for the assists, he rebounds constantly, and he blocks shots for defense. you cant ask for more. not to mention hes 21. Nash and Kobe all deserve their credit but i feel that lebron is a better player. kobe is all about himself so he can score 40 in a game but has only like 2 assists. lebron scores 40 and has 11 assists. the only other person besides lebron that should even come close to getting the MVP award is Nash but it still should be lebron.

Well, right now LeBron James is the best in the NBA. But, the best player ever is the one and only MJ. But I wouldn't be surprised to see LBJ pass Jordan up.\n\nI LOVE BASKETBALL TOO!

I like LeBron, but he can't do it by himself...They may beat the Pistons...but it's the MJ thing all over again.  It wasn't until Jordan got his teammates involved he started to win championships.  A championship may happen... just not now.

Steve Nash, Lebron James, and Kobe seem to be the front runners for the MVP.  I also think Lebron should win it, and that he is the only reason the Nest winning streak ended.

Lebron James is a godsend for the Cleveland Cavs. He is only 21 and look at his playing ability - he took the strongest team in the league i.e. the pistons to 7 games and had an opportunity to defeat them after a 3-2 series lead. When his career is over he will certainly be better than Kobe and maybe even surpass the best player ever i.e. Michael Jordan

Well, Lebron has not reached his prime yet.  When LJ reaches his prime, will he be as good as Jordan was in his prime?  Stay tuned!  If you're an NBA fan, you have to look forward to seeing him develop.  The other question(s):  will he have a player as good as Pippen, and a coach as good as Jackson to aid his development?  Not likely.\n\nBest player of all time?\nI subscribe to the view that Chamberlain was the most dominant force ever in the game.  Russell was the greatest winner.  But, I guess the greatest combination of individual talent and winning was Jordan.

I think you mean MVP, but I don't think he should, because, even though he scores a whole lotta points per game, they don't necessarily guarantee wins. Just a couple of days ago, he scored 51 points, but his team lost by the score of 100-93 (I think). If a player's efforts don't contribute wins the majority of the time, he shouldn't be MVP. Steve Nash, Michael Jordan, Kevin Garnett - when they got their MVP's, they clearly elevated ALL of their teammates by their play. Not so for Kobe.

no way. even though he had a nice year and a nice record. that doesnt only make him the mvp. steve nash in my mind repeats as mvp. not only is he having a better year then last year (he was mvp last year), but he also is helping his teammate boris diaw be the front runner in the most improved player award. he has lead his team without amare one of the most versatile and explosive big men in the league. steve nash wins hands down. kobe will win it when he does more then score points. lebron wins it in a couple years.

Dwayne Wade will win the NBA Finals MVP. Here are some reasons why:\n1. He willed his team to come back being down 13 points in the 4th to win in Game 3 by scoring 42 points \n2. He has hit crucial jumpers in key moments of this Finals series\n3. He is only 24 years old and is only going to get better\n4. He has consistently drawn fouls and gone to the FT line and he made two big ones in Game 5\n5. He is legitimately "the next Michael Jordan"

One of the criteria for NBA MVP should always be making one's teammates better. Nash does that. Kobe does not. He's made efforts before in the past, but it never lasted for very long (see his 81-point "performance") I'm speaking from the standpoint of a former Laker fan who was a fan until they traded Shaq. And before anyone calls me a "bandwagoner", I was a fan during the "Showtime" era and continued watching through Magic's retirement and through the Shaq & Kobe era until Kobe got Shaq traded. Also, an MVP never skulks off the court without so much as a congratulations to the winning team.

Yep!  Kobe just scores.  His team loses most of the time when he scores 40 or more.  His passing comes last.  Takes more than scoring to get MVP.  Jordan got his team winning with leadership and Kobe, well, because his leadership sucks can never be compared to Jordan or considered for MVP.  Lebron James!!!  MVP.  Go Kings!

Not right now but in 3-6 years he could be. Youngest player to win All Star MVP. He has led the Cavs to a 4th or 5th seed in the East. He has a drive to win\n\nHe may be the future in the NBA. Him, Dwayne Wade, Maybe Andre, Bosh, \n\n I dont know why pistons is saying that people that thing that Lebron is good is retarted. Your calling every sports anaylyst stupid. And compared to them you dont know anything.\n\n   Lebron may when it in the future. But not in the near future. This year it will be Kobe or Nash or Billups or Dirk

That's what the f*#k I'm talking bout... and for people that say Wade is the best, they only say that s**t cause they turn one the TV and see him right now...  they either have never played organized basketball, don't remember the Laker 3 peat, or they just got the mind of an impressionable 10 year old little kid...  and the MVP stands for the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER...  if your going to give it to the player that makes his team better...  give it to LeBron, not Nash...  wins ain't got nothing to do with the MVP.  It's supposed to go to the player that had the best year... that was Kobe...  END OF DISCUSSION !!!!

I do not think it will be Shaq because he missed a big chunk of this season. I think either Dwyane Wade, Steve Nash, or Shawn Marion would be great MVPs because they aren't big superstars like Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, or Allen Iverson, yet they are just as athletic.

Nash just beet Kobe in the first round of the playoffs so when deciding between kobe and nash I would say nash. But lebron seemed more valuable to Cleveland in the finals so I think lebron deserves the MVP
