CP3 was a big key to what the Clippers are doing. Tony Parker also did his thing for most of the year...but LBJ deserves this one imho.
I dont know where the Robin thing is coming from...but the Heat now belong to LBJ...not DWade. Based off what he did this year..he deserves the award. Excluding DWade and Bosh...the Heat are really full of bums. The good stats that they were able to put up...including Wade and Bosh....were a lot of times based off the attention that LBJ drew. LBJ indirectly made them look better.
BTW....the fact that any player got more MVP's than Kobe is cool with me Kobe may have more rings....but still; unlike MJ Kobe never really carried any of his teams to any title wins. He was a factor...but he was never the determining factor....*shots fired* ....lol
Like the dude Tim Rock said: When LA wins, it's never because of Kobe. When they lose, it's always because of Kobe.
It's astonishing how dissimilar your opinion, and the opinion of those like you, is from those who've had to face the man - be they player, or coach.
Let me HELP raise your blood pressure:
2:33 - 2:47
Hate distorts peoples thoughts even when they don't realize it. Cranrab believes Keith Bogans is better than Kobe. How can any sensible basketball fan - let alone a former pro - allow themselves to think something like that? That's what hate does.
You hate Kobe, and love Mike, and I already know the shit Augmon and Ceballos said, you will NEVER accept. Why? You hate the dude. .
I've told dudes on this forum before: The biggest difference between Kobe and Jordan is shot selection and effort on defense. On more than one occasion Kobe has put the clamps on league-leading scorers(e.g. T-Mac; AI), but he is only committed to defense in spurts. Mike was committed to that shit, and the results spoke for themselves. Lastly, Kobe may have the worst shot selection of any all-time dude, and he is rarely able to reel himself in and take intelligent shots on a consistent basis. However, when dude starts sinking those ridiculous shots everyone goes crazy, including me.
The skill-set is definitely comparable. This is why the comparisons are made. Dudes see Kobe fading on niggas, and weaving in and out of defenses, and they can't help but see Mike.
At the same time, Kobe Bryant is a career 45% shooter with that same crazy shot selection. It's not great, but it's comparable to other guys who are considered better shooters than Kobe, who have a much better shot selection(e.g. Dirk = 47.5%).
I blame Mike for fucking that dudes mind up. Dude was hurling up wild shit when he came in the league, and he's still doing it now. I said Mike's 'Come Fly With Me' influenced Kobe heavily, and I'll be DAMN if Phil Jackson, a few years back, didn't say THE EXACT SAME SHIT on "Pardon The Interruption".
But, yeah...
...Lebron is built for MVP awards. The way he plays the game pretty much makes him a contender every year.
