MVP
Uhhh. Abstract thought isn't your strong suit, huh?
No, I missed that bit.

Everybody but sad homer cleveland fans know that lebron is butthurt as fuck simply because he's not the best player in the league any more. You didn't hear him bitch in the past when he won it.
I'm not a basketball fan, but whenever I venture over to the NBA threads, I'm always intrigued how the most ardent Lebron detractors are typically Lakers and Heat fans.
In your opinion, why do you think that is?
Dude is just so unlikable. So much talent and size, but such a fucking bitch.![]()
Maybe because 70% of this board are Lakers and Heat fans.
I would imagine that part of his personality stems from the neglect from his mom as a child. Most people don't realize childhood developments resurface in adulthood.
Cut the guy some slack. Not only is LeBron no longer the top player in the NBA today, he's not even the top player from Akron in the NBA today. Usually, when someone is dethroned as the best player, he can usually say he's still the best player from his state and hometown. Kind of crazy that he and Curry were born in the same hospital 39 months apart.
Who gives a damn about last finals? This years MVP award wasn't handed out to the best player of a playoff series last year

I thought about what he said and I don't think he meant it as crying and he didn't say anything that every one else in the world hasn't thought at one time or another, so he does have a point
He has 4 MVP's lol. Like I said, he was asked a question and answered. You are way to obsessed with Lebron, get over it![]()
That's how I see it, particularly with his quote where he referenced Curry's stats - there's obviously some reverence there.
As a resident of Northeast Ohio, I'm aware of some truly amazing things that James has done for the community, most notably, he's offered to pay 1,100 kids' college tuition. That one is particularly impressive to me, but there are plenty of other examples.
Some how, this stuff never sticks with the media and I totally agree with you, he often comes across as a douche knuckle. That "The Decision" bit was such a colossal PR cluster fuck. Guy could have left the Cavs and the only people that would have given a shit would have been Ohioans. Instead, he turned the entire country into haters.
Then why bring up the "true meaning of most valuable"? What's wrong with a 'Congratulations'?
I was a clear case of "Curry deserves it, but....."
But that argument aside, the throne has been taken, Steph Curry is the unquestioned best player in the game
Sorry to break up the hilariously wrong narrative... but you guys have all been trolled by ESPN.
Try watching the entire interview instead of the snippets of video and quotes that ESPN gives you.
A reporter specifically asked LeBron... "What do you think about the different interpretations of 'most valuable player'."
So he answered the question... then went out of his way to bring the conversation back to Curry and point out how clearly deserving of the award Curry was...
"Look at Steph's numbers. He averaged 30, he led the league in steals, he was 90-50-40, and they won 73. So, I don't -- do you have any debate over that, really, when it comes to that award?"
It's entirely possible that LeBron was asked specifically about "valuable" in an effort to lead him to provide an eye-catching headline.
Or is it because he's no longer the best player in the league?
I gotta say- I still think its LeBron.Personalities aside...who do you think is the best player in the league right now?
