LeBron James Is The Real NBA MVP – Sorry Giannis But You Play in The G-League Eastern Conference!

Dave Dabbah breaks down why LeBron James is the real NBA MVP. Let’s just say there is more to winning the MVP than just looking at stats. Both LeBron James and Giannis have comparable stats. LeBron averages 25 points, 8 rebounds and over 10 assists a game. While Giannis averages 30 points, 14 rebounds and 6 assists a game. Statistically, the edge goes to Giannis, but solely relying on stats to choose an MVP is not how MVPs should be selected in the NBA. If the MVP award was only based on stats than no one would need to vote.

LeBron finds himself in Western Conference dog fights every night, while Giannis gets to play a bunch of weak Eastern Conference teams of which many should be sent to the G-League like the Cavs, Hawks, Knicks, Pistons, Bulls, Hornets and Wizards. In addition, the current 7th and 8th seeds in the East are the Nets and Magic which are both well below 500.

It’s amazing that so many members of the media are not giving LeBron the respect he deserves for the season he is having. The NBA has always been about giving the MVP to its rising superstar and too often ignore the performance of qualified veterans. In this case, just watch a few Bucks and Lakers games and you will clearly see that LeBron does more for his team than Giannis.
