Who will win the 2009 NBA MVP Award? The odds are…

November 4, 2008 – Dr. Dime
**UPDATE** The NBA on Monday May 4th, 2009 Announced Lebron James as the 2009 NBA MVP. Click here for details.
After three games it’s apparent that some NBA players are going to have a better chance than others at winning the league’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) award.
Betting the ‘futures’ or predicting who will win awards in the future, requires a sense of the players that will be able to keep themselves going well into the middle and later parts of a full NBA season. Some players who get hot early, like Joe Johnson for the Atlanta Hawks for instance, have no chance of taking home the MVP trophy.
Other player that might not appear ready to give their best could find themselves in a situation that allows them to flourish.
Below is a list of the top ten MVP betting interests this season in the NBA. I’ve also listed what I consider to be fair betting odds. With that said, you should know I wouldn’t put a future wager on any one of these players unless you were able to get fair odds.
After going through the players list below, if you think you have a couple solid choices, then head down to a sports betting website and get started on basketball betting. Let me know in the comments below who your choices are, and not just your favorite player, but who YOU would lay your hard earned money down on for MVP this year…
Interests and Odds to Take Home the NBA MVP Trophy in 2009
1. Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers, 2.5 to 1 odds Bryant is the best. No doubt. Sure, he might not score more than some others. He might not rebound more than some others. He might not dish out more assists than some others, but he’s easily the most complete awe inspiring player in the world. He’s also the one player that every single NBA coach would want taking the final shot at the end of a game.
2. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers, 3.5 to 1 odds The league is dying to give an MVP to LeBron. Now that the Detroit Pistons have given up the farm by trading for Allen Iverson, the Cavs only need to take down the brilliant Boston Celtics in order for LeBron to win the MVP. Yeah, that’s not going to be an easy for King James and his knights.
3. Chris Paul, New Orleans Hornets, 5 to 1 odds If Paul continues to emphasize creating and not scoring, then he could surpass LeBron James as the guy most likely to win the MVP award after Kobe. Paul has been playing with more discipline so far this season. That’s a good sign that he has what it takes to get the job done.
4. Tim Duncan, San Antonio Spurs, 6 to 1 odds Duncan is averaging close to 30 points so far early in the NBA season. He’s a former winner of the award and wouldn’t it make sense for the Spurs to make a title run…again? Duncan knows that more is expected out of him this year than in years past. He could pull an upset.
5. Dwight Howard, Orlando Magic, 8 to 1 odds The man-child made some boo-boos over the summer by acting like an idiot. Don’t worry, Dwight. We’ve all done that. He’s still the best thing Orlando has seen since Shaq and he is leading the league in rebounds. The Magic should be better which means that Howard’s chances of winning the MVP are better.
6. Kevin Garnett, Boston Celtics, 11 to 1 odds Out of the big three in Celtic land this is the guy that makes things happen. He’s a defensive stalwart in a league full of scorers. That separates him from the rest. Also, is there a human being on this planet that doesn’t like Kevin Garnett? He could be the man this season.
7. Amare Stoudemire, Phoenix Suns, 14 to 1 odds Notice that Nash didn’t make this list? There’s a reason. Stoudemire is easily the best player on this team right now. He needs to play better defense before cracking the top six, but he might just do that because Terry Porter knows what he’s got. If he gets better defensively, then watch out. He can pretty much score at will.
8. Derron Williams, Utah Jazz, 18 to 1 odds He’s arguably the best point guard in the NBA right now, knows how to play under control, and has improved his jump shot. He’s also a big guy and he plays on a team that everybody knows has a shot to make it to the NBA Finals this season. He’s got the goods.
9. Tracy McGrady, Houston Rockets, 25 to 1 odds For years the NBA, and NBA writers, have wanted to give the MVP award to T-Mac. The problem is that T-Mac, as great as he is, hasn’t been on a sure fire playoff contender. Well, he’s supposedly on one right now. Will it be enough for him to secure the MVP? Probably not but he’s not the worst stab in the world.
10. Dwayne Wade, Miami Heat, 40 to 1 odds Unless someone sneaks onto this list that I haven’t noticed already, Wade is the final guy to think about making a wager on. Why? It’s a come back year Wade who was absolutely fantastic over the summer in the Olympics. If the Heat make the playoffs, then Wade jumps up quite a few spots on this list.





No way Kobe doesn’t win it back to back. If nash can do it, Kobe can for sure. Lakers are unbeatable this year. Lebron is the only real contender, but his team won’t be good enough to really justify beating Kobe.
CP3 is good, but nowhere near MVP level of Kobe
i agree wit dat
Kobe is the best in the world we all know it and will still know in year’s to come. kobe is one of my sport hero on and off the court he is a hero so there is no way kobe woll not win the MVP award. He have to win it matter of must he have to win. no one is better then kobe right now in the NBA I beat my life on that so people be careful how u choose
I personally think Lebron will win the NBA MVP for the 2009-09 season. I think the Cavs would be under .500 without him and over .700 with him. Although, the Hoop Doctors seem consistent with how people are voting. According the http://www.nbamvprace.com Kobe is #1, Lebron is #2 and Chris Paul is #3
Yoo true Kobe fan right here. Obviously Kobe is going to take it this year cuz he the worlds greatest. I argue with ma college buddies all the time sayin who will win MVP this year. All of dem supporting Lebron, but this dude uses his strength and speed mainly. but Kobe can be the slowest guy on the court this dude will pull sum crazy Jumpers and baskets with his special Technique’s. So 2008- 09 Season is all bout Kobe and the lakers!!
F*&k kobe he aint going no where no chance in hell he’ll win someone else is takin who knows maybe Paul Pierce..
dwade= leading scorer, and team leader!!!! wade’s going all the way
if Wade can drive the Heat to at least 5th in the East and keeps those numbers….he should get the MVP…as of now, hes leading the league i scoring, great amount of assists, blocks (best guard), steals, .499 FG…..and a “comeback”…..
Im sure he’ll make it happen!
LeBron is the MVP of the NBA LeBRON is the MVP of the East, LeBron is the MVP of Basketball as a whole.
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron is the Best thing in Basketball. he is only playing 3 quarters. He can hit 40 a night if he so chose to.
LeBron!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron 2009 MVP and LeBron 2009 DYP!
LeBron is obviosuly better. U are an idiot if you think otherwise. Look at the stas. This year he is beating Kobe in every category and barely playing into the fourth quarter because that cavs are killing everyone with LeBron leading the way. Without Kobe you still have Gasol and Bynum and strong players to be a leader. The cavs are getting a piggy back ride by LeBron and should be finals contenders definately. Cav’s should see Hornets or Lakers in the finals so we will see that LeBron truly is better.
Just wait until he starts playing entire games. The Cavs can take the Celts in a 7 game series with all teams healthy. As far as MVP is concerned LeBron is top choice.
The only other consideration would be Pierce, Kobe and a Distant Wade, but LeBron the 2008 – 2009 MVP and may get a Defensive player of the Year award.
Dwyane wade kc si wade sya na ang leading scorer pasok p s best in steal,blocks,asst.anu pa hahanapin niu dun?,?dba,si lebron james pur0 dunk lng..pag nag drible pAh nawawala s kamay..kya “DWYANE WADE” n tau..haha
1. LeBron James, Cavaliers: Not only is LeBron second in the league in scoring, he also has vastly improved his defense. LBJ has been a nightly weak-side pest on the defensive end, and his knowledge of the system allows him to set the defense and communicate with his teammates better than ever before. In other words, he keeps getting better. Scary.
Retards!! Kobe will win mvp just cuz he’s a better leader, he will shut down lebron 1 on 1, he’s always on the defensive first team, all lebron can do is dunk, no shot, thts y the celtics shut his ass down all day, the cavs will neva take the c’s in 7 games! The only way they did it last yr is cuz clev refs r mad cheep go on youtube.com type bias refs nd ull see a cavs vs lakers game! And anotha reason last yr vs the cavs ray allen was on a shooting slump, nd on the lakers he was on fire! This yr cavs will lose 2 celtics in 4. Cavs r pathetic and c’s cud shut down lebron easily by puttin pierce on him,as for lebron def. Player of the year- hahahahah pierce shat on him game 7 if u don’t recall and he’s never been on the all nba defensive team!! Get outa here u morons

Mvp goes 2 lebron koby no mvp cuz james is the best
Kobe will win it with ease. He’s the best in the world. But don’t forget about Chris Bosh!!! LeBron James is a joke.
Chris Bosh? you are out of your mind bro. Have you check the team standings? Cavs has the 2nd best record in the nba and you know who’s leading them? LeBron James he is the MVP and he has the stats and wins to prove it. LeBron is no joke
Vote LeBron MVP
I’m spanish and I haven’t a good english but I’m for boston celtics and the best player of celtics is paul pierce, garnett is very good but this season and last season don’t played to stayed in the ranking of mvp.
but it isn’t important because the mvp will be to kobe bryant, lebron james or chris paul.
OMG people Wade is everything coming back from an injury he is awesome! He is leading in probrably everything he is the only one holding the franchise up with 28.9 points per game! Vote Wade for MVP NOW!!!
OMG people vote Wade for MVP! He is awesome leaing the lead in scoring and he is the only one holding the heat franchise up plus coming back from an injury he is awesome! Vote Wade for MVp PLZ! P.S i think Lebron is second choice for MVP and Kobe is third choice

but i think lebron is second choice and Kobe is Third
hay i know lebron
Lebron is the favorite winner. I don’t see Kobe winning it back to back. After tonight’s win against Boston and Lebron’s much improved defense, I don’t see any other player competing with him. For now, he is the best in the NBA.
kobe will get b2b mvp nba season lebron will get award most crocodile player in the nba today mo wiliam is the best than lebron
listen! king james is good wade is good, but they are not kobe bryant kobe has been afirst team all nba most of his career first all nba 7 or so times including last year tons of game winning clutch shots infact u can argue kobe deffered to shaq in the finals against indiana 76ers and nets so that shaq could could win mvp kobe got the lakers there, kobe is a killer both on offense and defense with ridiculous handles and jump shots from any spot on the court lebron is mostly all dunks no defense. kobe 2009 mvp
@oniell are you on crack? “lebron is all dunks no defense”????? Lebron is probably the leading candidate for defensive player of the year this year as he’s way up there in steals, blocks, and defensive boards. You are clearly a bandwagon hopper and no nothing about nba basketball

I take LeBron MVP!!! MVP! LEBRON MVP!
y is everybody hating…listen lebron and kobe are the best players in the world. point blank… but lebron is a better basketball player then kobe. he averages more points, more rebounds, more assists, more steal, more blocks. now having said all that, how could kobe be better. kobe has been the league for 13 years to ;ebron’s 6 and kobe is just starting to have leadership skills??to the kobe fans you all have to ask yourselves “could kobe take a bunch of mediocare players to the finals??the answer is no because he is a ball hog and doesnt know how to lead…lebron has done that. he has put cleveland on the map and everytime the cavs play, they ALWAYS have a chance of winning because of lebron. kobe is a one dimensional player compared to kobe. but if scoring a lot of points makes you the best, then why isnt wilt chamberline or karl malone not considered the best. and it isnt like lebron can score either. what kobe brings to the table in every game….ONLY POINTS. what lebron brings to the table every game…..EVERYTHING. kobe has skills alot of skills which required practice…but lebron is the toughest player to guard. think about it again everyone..cleveland only has lebron james and yet the cavs still have the 2nd best record in the east and 3rd overall in the nba. and the cavs are not at full strenght yet. now lets talk kobe and leberon defensive this year and recent years. kobe is a better man to man defender right now. but lebron is way up there in man to man. as far as getting steal and the tangibles of playing the passing lane, etc. lebron is better. lebron will be on the all nba 1st defensive team this year and many years to come. we have to understand, lebron was and still is the only consistent player on the cavs so he has to exhaust a lot of energy on the offense so we cant knock him for lack of defensive in many years. NOW since they got an extra scorer in mo williams, that takes alot of energy off of lebron james and that energy is being put on the defensive end. and look how it turned out as lebron is being considered to be the mvp of the league and the defensive player of he year. having said all of this lebron for the past 2 years has been the best player in the nba and will be for years to come as he is ONLY 24….WOW!!!!!
are u kidding me, kobe is the best player on the planet he taught lebron how to play defence during summer olympics, lebron will get their but kobe got robbed when dirk won it and twice when nash won it, this should be kobes 5th str8. period
Im a fan of DIRK but that doesnt matter. Kobe is a ball hog i mean did you see the all-star shot after shot and missed almost every one. LeBron is a ball hog and a show off for some reason he always dunks and always has to shoot threes from longer three point range.So i think Dirk or Chrs Paul should get it. Dirk is too kind to shoot alot so he gets alot of assists. When he wants to hell get as many points as he wants.

celtics will win even with kobe, lebron, c paul, and nash all on the same team. Nash still is awesome though.
what???
KOBE = MVC = MOST VALUABLE CHUCK
LBERON = MVP 2009 AND SHOULDV’E BEEN MVP 08, 06.
lebron took this league by storm and he is only 24 years old.
lets face facts.
I put it like this. if kobe was the BEST player in the world, then EVERYONE, would consider him the best. some people consider kobe as the best and some people consider lebron the best.
and julius irving did not know what he was talking about when he said” kobe has the torch now, but lebron will get it soon”. wrong julius, lebron TOOK the torch at 6′9, 250lbs, ONLY 24, beat kobe 6-5 in head to head matchups, average’s more points, more rebounds, more assist, more block, more steals, in the past 2 years. lebron is someone i would want from my team because i know he can get my EVERYTHING… what player we know, AT 24 YEARS OLD, was, or is being considersated the best small forward to ever play the game of basketball, has been compared to magic johnson, larry bird, and osar robertson and jordan. lets face it people, he is not even in his prime yet. GREATNESS…he can only get better
I think that Lebron is 100% going to be the mvp because Kobe is a ball hog way too much.
LEBRON MVP
LEBRON MVP
LEBRON MVP
Also he gets 28.8 ppg and Kobe only gets 27.4 ppg
So think about it Lebron is the best player on th PLANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP LEBRON MVP
ALL DA WAY!!!!
Yall r right about Kobe and Lebron beeing the best but I think Kobe is better and I think Kobe is gona win the MVP Life isnt fair so get use to it so if your player doesnt win sorry to bad but axually im just making a point it doesnt matter is Lebron averages the most point or the most rebounds or the most assists it matters if u win or not and in the end of this year we will see if KOBE or LEBRON WINS THE MVP and we could all agree and dissagree all day and night and we could talk trash and talk smack ow well we will see who wins the MVP LATER ON AND WHO WINS A CHAMPIONSHIP LATER ON IM JUST TRYING TO MAKE A POINT AND IF U DON’T UNDERSTAND THATS AS CLEAR AS I CAN MAKE IT OK IN MY OPINION KOBE IS THE BEST KOBE IS RAW AND KOBE ROCKS LEBRON IS GOOD BUT KOBE IS # 1 OK AND BOSH ISNT GONA BE A MVP WINNER SORRY I DON’T SEE THAT HAPPENING OK AND LAST YEAR AT LEAST LAKERS WENT ALL THE WAY TO FINALS BUT CAVS BARLY GOT TO THE PLAYOFFS BUT THATS LIKE I SAID LIFE ISNT FAIR OK LAKERS ROCK AND CAVS DO TO BUT MY FAVORITE TEAM OF COURSE IS LAKERS OK BYE
YALL TYLER IS WRONG ABOUT CELTICS WINNING WITH KOBE , C,PAUL , LEBRON , AND NASH
d wade will win mvp no one else has been consistent as wade this year…4 40 point games in a row…come on its clear now…when wade is healthy hes the best player in the nba
KOBE is the best
Lebron will win mvp. yes i agree that kobe is a great player but Lebron is also. There have been quite a few games to prove that even without lebron scoring the highest the cavs can win. every game that the lakers have lost kobe wasnt the leading scorer. yes they beat the cavs but they lost to weaker teams than the cavs. the cavs losses have all came from playoff caliber teams. i think it will be a win for Lebron. Cavs NBA CHAMPS this year.
Kobe will WIN MVP
Kobe will WIN CHAMPION
KOBE IS THE BEST
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP

KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
KOBE MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
THE BEST= KOBE
MVP=KOBE
GREATEST=KOBE
EVERYTHING=KOBE
I agree that kobe is the best and the lakers are practically unbeatable right now, but Dwayne Wade is carrying a team thats not all that good. Wade’s has been putting up MVP numbers and no one gives him credit. All i say is Wade for MVP!!!
I would have to say that D-Wade Will becouse he is leading in scoreing right now
And Deron williams is better than Cp3
So fuck all of yall D-Will hatter
Cp3 had a luckey seson last year but now look at him
So when you vote for all stars next year you should remember this and how that mutherfucker had a luckey year
no one can dominate the nba mvp this year..its all about KOBE BRYANT..he gonna smash all the mvp contender..from lebron to wade..watch out for your choices you might be disappointed..its KOBE the MVP..NO doubt yo……..
heat fan. the 3 top best players in the nba are lebron, kobe and d-wade. ask ANYONE regarding those 3 players who will they pick last and that is d-wade. wade is not better than lebron or kobe and i like d-wade but those 2 are in classes by themselves even though lebron is better. lebron is the best right now.
now i agree d wade is carrying the team and he is not getting the credit he deserves on a mediocre team. BUT lebron has done that for YEARS NOW…I REPEAT YEARS NOW. no all stars to play with him, not anything. as soon as the cavs first made the playoffs with lebron, they beat washington and advanced. took detroit (which was the best team in the nba at that time to 7 games and keep in mind that no team took detroit to 7 games that year), next following year beat detriot in 6 games to get to the FINALS. (keep in mind the mediocre team lebron is playing with), then the following year took the boston celtics to 7 games and barely won. and this is before this year. so having said all tha, d-wade has to prove what lebron has already done. get past the 2nd round with his team, take on the best teams in the NBA with his team, and have a chance of winning and getting to the finals with his teaam. and be considered among the great players to every play and still maintain his numbers, and play as much minutes. do u think d-wade is really that good for him to do all that. oh by the way, at least the heat have decent players in jermaine oneal and michael beasley. the only other decent player on the cavs is mo williams and by the way mo williams is having his best career year this year with lebron.
LEBRON MVP
LEBRON MVP
OH AND MUST GET HOMECOURT TOO LOL
DWADE DWADE DWADE DWADE WER WOulfd the heat be without wade 5 games on winning last season comes back lead scorer and 5 seed in playoffs thats a mvp the best player this season but bad team. kobe kobe kobe listen the lakers will make it to the playoffs without you paul gasol bynum and fisher they can do it. Lbron and dwade not kobe one or the other LB OR DW
I think D-wade will win. why do all of you think kobe and lebron will win it. it has to be an all round player. wade averages more points, steal, assists, and blocks than kobe and lebron. WADE WADE WADE WADE WADE WADE all the way.
I WILL WIN THE MVP AWARD!
LEBRON JAMES is the BEST All Around Player this season.
He really deserve to win the MVP this year based on his stat. He improved a lot his stat this season compare to Kobe. He single-handed lead his team to win a game in most of the time unlike Lakers they did not only depend on Kobe every game, they also need Pau Gasol and Odom to win a game and have a good standing. There is no DOUBT that Lebron will win the MVP Trophy this season because as you see on his age right now, he’s not an ordinary kid who brought his team to the TOP unlike Kobe when his on that Lebron’s age right now. This will show that LEBRON is Better Than kobe. I hope that the voter’s will look on to that..Just look what Lebron is capable of this rest of the season.
LEBRON is the BEST of all the Best NBA Players this season.
LEBRON deserve to WIN the NBA MVP Award this season!!!!!!
I think Lebron James will win it not just because he is my favourite player it’s because he does it all from reb to assist to 50 point games to 3 triple doubles in a row, he makes his team play better everygame, he has gave his team the best record in the and if the cavs never had lebron they would probably be lucky to make the playoffs, the last 3 games the cavs played they were losing bad in the 4th and lebron came back with like 20 points or 13 points 5 rebs and 5 assist something amazing, the cavs have won there last 9 of 10 because of Lebron, cavs have the best record 54-13 because of lebron and if he doesnt have a high scoring night then he has like 14 assist and 15 reb or something like that, he is just amazing does it and both sides of the court def and offence, with 2 steals a game, 1 block a game, 28.7 points a game, 7.5 reb, 7.3 assist, 8 or 9 40 or more point games , 6 triple doubles, 21 double doubls and 3 or 4 50 points or more .
y is everyone talking about d wade???ok he is hot right now, and he is doing everything. but can we start thinking realistically for a few minutes. can anyone tell me what he is doing that lebron hasnt already done for years now? for this year’s mvp its a very tight race and its been good for basketball. but lebron will edge it out because of the record and the numbers.
People MVP is not about who is the best player, or who is your favorite player, nor is it a life time achievement award, it what have you done this season and without DWade this Miami heat team would be lucky to win 15 games again this year, and why are we talking about pass achievement, we seem to forget in 06 DWade carry a team that was the worst NBA championship team ever, yea I said it, no body pick this team to win, if was not for DWade amazing performance the heat would have gotten swept.221 He has done something that Kobe and Lebron has yet to achieve, carry a team to a title. The only reason why DWade does not get the love is because he did not come into the league with the hype of a Lebron, but so far they have been even in my book, Lebron has some better carrier # because he has been more healthy
i think it should go to d-wade but im betting that it will go to lebron. we shall see who is right in a couple months :S
-Rich
First of all, the MVP award is not for the best player in the league, it the mos VALUABLE player in the league, in other terms, who is most valuable for their team. That is obviously Wade because he does most for his team. Wade plays with two rookies. Kobe has Bynum and Gasol, which could help Kobe out a lot and Lebron does not have rookies, he has players that have experience in the NBA.
I’m not on here to bash LeBron or D.Wade because they are truly two future hall of famers. I’m just here to make the case that Kobe Bryant is M.V.P he was last year and I don’t see anyone taking it this year either. Kobe has lead his team as a true leader should he does what it take to win the game. If it means scoring he can do that. If it means taking on the best player on the opposing time he can and does that. No one had to tell Kobe how to play. He already knows. That’s a M.V.P He’s a great basketball player. He puts in the time and the workout room. The last to leave the gym. He has injuries and not once has he complain he goes out there we the same drive and passion if not as much as anyone else in the league. He broke two great teams winning streaks the champs and the cavs. No he didn’t do it by himself they did it as a team. I won’t add all the things he’s done in his career because its not about years before its about now, its who the m.v.p should be this year. I wouldn’t be surprise if D.Wade or LB won but to not say Kobe isn’t worthy of getting the M.V.P make’s 0 sense! I’ll end my comment with a quote. ” Love me or hate me; it’s one or the other. Always has been. Hate my game, my swagger. Hate my fadeaway, my hunger. Hate that I’m a veteran. A champion. Hate it with all your heart. And hate that I’m loved for the exact same reasons.” KOBE BRYANT
LeBron ISSSSSSSSSSSSSS THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK wowowowoow
kobe?
KOBE?
im sorry theres only two people in this race
kobe only averages like 5 assist 4 rebounds and no way hes going back to back and hes 3rd in scoring
THATS ALL HE DOES
and Lebron is way better than kobe and so is dwade statistic wise in ever value except winning games
lets just but it this way the cavs without lebron….. there not a threat to nba community nothing like nba champs
lakers without kobe…. still good! STILL GOOD
heat without dwade….. SHIT shit
really only dwade and lebron are the only ones out there to win it
im sorry guys kobe is OUT
and if anything
if dwade doesnt win mvp then lebron should
hahaha…wtf? what odds calculating system are you using…you know lebron is getting the mvp this year…difference is he should have gotten it last year but of course it wouldnt be right for lebron to get one before kobe lol….you are obviously in denial…claiming kobe is going to get it? lol…holy shit…thats almost as delusional as your statement that kobe is the best and most complete player even though he doesnt get as much rebounds or assists…thats like saying kobe is better but lebron just puts up better numbers and has more wins…..reggie miller was clutch…derek fisher is clutch…etc…but that doesnt make them the best player in the world…..lol…lebron has 3 times the talent kobe has….and hes more explosive and exciting to watch because hes bigger faster stronger smarter than kobe…only thing kobe is better at is shooting…and winning only when he has an all star cast…lebron has clumsy ass floppy weak big men….LEBRON IS OBVIOUSLY THE BEST….FACT… why do kobe fans always think hes the best but never have factual support…they just say hes the best…lol pathetic.
Yo! this season has many good players competing for the NBA MVP. There are good players like LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Jason Kidd, but none of them surpass what Dwayne Wade has made not only in this season but also in the past ones. Neither the big Mike at his age and professional NBA experience can’t compare to this guy who has even a LOT more to exploit. What he has accomplished til now has surpassed all the records and achievements of the player in the NBA history. So, let’s honor the best of all. That’s DWAYNE WADE!!!

GO LEBROn james king james all the way screw Kobe he suck big ones LBJ all the way this year and cavaliers are going to be champs of the world LBJ no one else Lebron is the king of the world and the NBA everybody knows it just to afraid to admit it. LEBRON MVP
if there is one that is truly remarkable it is kobe bryant. he surpassed the time that he wants to carry all the responsibility on hi shoulder. he can easily beat the stats of lebron if he will stick on his old attitude to be ballhog.
i agree on one article that if you are a coach, who is the player that you’re going to choose for the last shot? apparently noone beats kobe in this category. you can compare the kobe’s finesse with michael jordan but lebron’s style can be compared with shawn kemp and dominique wilkins..
it’s wonderful to see the fade-away shot of kobe, it will remind you the real beauty of basketball. lebron’s dunks are fantastic but all these hoops were not done in real beauty but with great power…
for me, there is no comparison for kobe and lebron. maybe lebron can steal the mvp award but still, there’s no argument that kobe is the best player on earth!!!
Kobe No, Lebron No, D WADE Hell YES MVP
lebron not kobe
kobe my A@# cp3 all the way

KOBE FOR MVP
Lebron is 24 years old! Kobe was nowhere near Lebron is now when he was 24! Kobe has been put in positions, and with good teams to win! Lebron built todays Cavaliers. You guys are all crazy. hahaha. Points, assists, rebounds, etc. They all go to Lebron. Thanks for playing guys. The 2009 NBA MVP goes to KING JAMES.
lebron jaaameesss for MVP .
. he’s great. i mean, one heck of a player! kobe’s great too, but, if you look at the circumstances, lebron james is a lot more better, probably the best player in NBA.
it is dwyane wade no question about it look what he did
he is amazing a miami heat team that was 15-67 to now
in the playoffs sure kobe and lebron are having a good
season but dwyane wade is having the best
dwyane
wade mvp all the way
WHERE IS CHAUNCEY B-B-B-BILLUPS
JACK GET BACK TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!
HELL YEA DWADE IS GOING TO GET THE MOST MOST HE AVERAGE MORE POINTS IN A GAME THEN KOBE AND LEBRON CHECK THE STAITS IF YALL THINK I AM LYING

not all that sucks
king is the MVP of the year because he is the beter play of all time and he is the only time needs to win one game we could even say that with out James cavelres can’t even win over MInnesota team.
KING LBR
KING LBJ MVP OF THE YEAR OF 2008-2009 SESON>
lebron deserves the mvp for all what he has done the past 5 years
kobe is the mvp
wade–> 30.2 ppg. lebron–> 28.4ppg
wade–> 7.5 apg lebron–> 7.2apg
wade–> 2.2 spg lebron–> 1.7spg
Why is wade not the mvp. The only stat lebron beat him in is rebounds. The only reason lebron gets so much attention is because the media is looking for the next michael jordan and are ignoring the player that is out-performing their messiah. Although lebron physically resembles jordan more than wade, dwade is the one with the ring which is what jordan is most famous for. Even though lebron has more wins, wade’s record is more impressive because of the lack of talent surrounding him (at least lebron has mo williams-all-star). In a few years wade will have help in the form of a better-developed beasley, but right now wade carried his mediocre to the playoffs on his own.
Listen.. Kobe Bryant is the best basketball player in the world… Lebron is only that good because he is on HGH.. Kobe takes, and makes the hardest/most unbelievable shots in the league. Shots that Lebron wishes he could make. Kobe may be a little behind in stats but I guarantee that every single coach in the league would rather have Kobe take the final shot at the buzzer to win the championship over Lebron.. Thats a given. Dont get me wrong im a huge fan of Lebron also but its absolutely rediculous to say hes better than Lebron. Who cares if the rest of the lakers are better than the rest of the Cavs.. they’re the best team in the league with the best player in the world. Ide like to hear anyone argue this.
I know that everyone who loves Kobe Bryant that deep in their heart they know that Lebron James is the best player, all around player in the NBA. Compare the statistics on from the start of each of their careers and you will come to find that Kobe comes no place close to Lebron. Lebron would have three championship rings if he had around him what Kobe did. If he was all of that why didn’t he win the MVP when they won those championships? They would have won them without Kobe. Kobe wanted Shaq traded and it happened. But Shaq went and won another championship, What happened Kobe. What happened to the lakers last year in the championship series? You were the big man Kobe. You had your team. What happened? You looked like a bunch of little girls in a mans game. The series was embarrassing to even watch. If Lebron does not win the MVP it will prove that you are not judged for your work. It is strictly political. Maybe he should go and get a court case like Kobe did and then maybe everyone will consider him what he is right now. The MVP of the NBA.
A reply to Pat:
Hey Pat where do come off with the HGH? Did you sell it to him? You need to get some BG Which stands for BRAIN GROWTH. You sound like an idiot with that foolishness. It always takes some fool like yourself to downplay a man that has talent. All i see is a bunch of jealousy and envy toward Lebron. Has Kobe brought a team from the ashes like Lebron has? All Kobe does is score points. That does not make him the best player in the game. He was fortunate to be on the lakers when he was. Lebron has a complete package. When was the last time you saw Kobe chase someone down the court and pin them to the backboard? Guess what Pat thats part of the game also and Kobe does not have that part and never will. I guess you didn’t hear that Lebron came in second place as the best defensive player in the NBA this year. What more does he have to prove and he is only 24 years old. Its about more than makeing shots. You have to be able to rebound, steal, assist. Guess what Pat Lebron is in all of those statistics.
All i got to say is.whos team will be worse off.i thnk wade is mvp and his team is garbage compared to the cavs without lebron.even though ths is wat i believe.im pretty sure lebron will win it.sad
i think lebron will be the mvp
he deserve to a mvp
kobe is a loser
It sure is funny looking at all these comments now that we know who will really win it. Sorry to all you Kobe fans but the new MVP is going to be Lebron just before they beat the Lakers for the championship.
It’s a shame they don’t have a MVP award for the 2nd best guy because that Super Freak Pau Gasol would win it. He really kicks butt. I like Kobe but they couldn’t beat Boston last year. This year they are A LOT better since they got Pau.
A Man… I May Be A Clevland Fan… But I Think Lebron Will Get Mvp… I Told U Guys… He Averges 28 Points A Game… And Has The Most Triple Doulbles This Year… What Helps The Most Is That He Has The Best Record In The NBA & At Home… Thats My Proof
im not a frecle on dwights face im so bad i suck balls
I LIKE DWIGHT REALLY MUCH . BUT IEBRONIS THE MVP THIS YEAR
Yes we know that Lebron James and Dwayne Wade scores more than points than Kobe Bryant but in his skills and spectacular blind passes and his love to the game Kobe Bryant deserves to be the 2009 MVP!
To Kobe’s #1 fan
What are the skills that you are talking about? Spectacular blind passes…..Don’t you think that you are talking about Lebron? I know that the saying goes “They all look alike” so maybe you have Lebron mixed up with Kobe when it comes to the blind passes or maybe you are blind and cannot see that Lebron earned the MVP and deserves it. If Kobe does not win the championship this year what is he going to do? He will probably start acting like a little girl again and try to get the whole team traded this time.
Lebron James is beating Kobe in statistical category. Lebron is obviously the better player. It took kobe 12 years to get on Lebron level. Cleveland all the way.
Are you all crazy Kobe sucks he’s the biggest ball hog in the league All he does is dribble in the ark take a jump shot and most of the time miss. My votes go to.
1st: Dwayne Wade
2nd :Lebron James
3rd: One off the 3 celtics superstars.
Come on if you watch kobe play and analyze it properly he’s not a very deserving winner at all.
Dwayne Wade MVP 2009
Kobe plays crap some games and good other games But the other candidates are more consistent> (Of Lebron takes kobe on in a 1 on 1 game Lebron would kick his ass).
In that cooment i was trying to say if not of.
kobe will be the raining MVP lebron will not because his like a monkey and a king kong and cp3 is very proud on his self his is not good to be the mvp kobe should do it lebron is like ahh boshit i want lebron and cp3 having sex with each other.
kobe become the mvp!!!!!!
kobe kobe kobe kobe!!!
To all of you jackasses that insult Lebron, you have no clue on basketball period. He is the description of MVP. Look at his stats and look at how his team plays because of him. Kobie is a selfish one man show hoisting up 30-40 shots a game. If you think Wade should win it, then Lebron should have won it the two years past when he leadin the three categories but didnt because the team didnt have the best record. He is second in scoring and has sat probably 20 fourth quarters. Also, a lot of you retards need to learn how to spell when posting. Go CAVS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wolvemaster i can spell but i am not a very good at typing thats all.
Anyway i agree Wolvemaster Lebron is a great player i think his shot blocking is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have you seen how hi he can jump it’s amazing he’s
almost good as MJ if not better at jumping and Kobe is a total dickhead He sucks i thought i was the only one who thought he was a hog.
LeBron will win MVP this year and he will beat Kobe in the Finals. Kobe’s getting old. LBJ’s just 24…
lebron james is the MVP this year and should have been 2 years ago. when it comes to kobe and lebron, the reason why people are saying kobe is better is everyone is thiking about the kobe bryant years ago and that should not be the case. can all the kobe fans tell me what the lakers were doing before shaq came and what were the lakers doing when shaq left and before the pau gasol trade. NOTHING. where was kobe. oh yeah, he was crying and complaining and snitching and raping. NO ONE CAN STOP LEBRON. the cavs are playing EXCELLENT basketball. the numbers speak for itself. lebron averages more points, rebound, assists, blocks, steals for the past 2 years-4 years and kobe is better???i put it like this, kobe has skills with the turnaround fadeaways etc. but lebron is the better basketball players than kobe and he is only 24years old. so to all the kobe fans can hate but they will hear lebron’s name for the next 10 years
who ever is sayin kobe is ball hog obvis is not watching the games kobe is carrying that team there is the team and then there is kobe, no doubt lebron is deserving of the award aswell but when it comes down to it, kobe is kobe don’t for get that at the end of the day
kobe bryant should get the mvp award cause he isnt a dumbass like lebron james. they say lebron is gonna get mvp but he is gonna break something cause he doesnt know how to control his timper. kobe bryant is a team player and the cavs would suck without lebron cause he does everything. kobe has a good game every game and lebron is good at one game and then sucks at the next
the top three mvp nominees are 1.kobe bryant 2.trevor ariza cause he has improved the most and lebron sucks dick
lebron james…hes had MVP numbers jst about his entire career and he hasnt gotten it cuz hes been outdone each year…this year hes the tops and deserves the MVP ppl who say LJ sucks…lets c u take him on 1 on 1 in the final seconds of the game thats idk 90 89…ya every1 nos who would win…LEBRON EVERY TIME… sure he misses occasionally but kobe isnt any better at it.
o…ricky bobby, ur a flaming retard. u sed the top 3 and listed 2 and lebron comes out and whops ass each game…ya the cavs rely on him a lot but thats wut teams do when they have a superduperstar like him…they give him the ball more so he can score more points.
mann….KOBE ALL DA WAYY…HES A WHOLE PACKAGE…HES GOT DA LOOKS N DA SKILLS….KOBE FOR MVP N TATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY..
LOVE U KOBE!!!!!! <3<3<3<3<3<3

LETS GO HEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well well well. like i have been saying all year. lebron is the mvp and came 2nd in defensive player of the year. so i need not say anymore right now. lebron may have won the mvp but he only has one goal as an NBA player and that is to win a championship. and the cavs are is a GREAT position to win this season. so to all the lebron haters, keep watching because you will see more great things from Lebron.

lebron win the MVP hahaha kobe is the best
Lebron James should be mvp because he is the king and he is one of the best basket ball players in the world kobe is good but not as good as the king
i believw CARMELO ANTHONY will win the MVP award he is the best scorer in the league no doubt he has a killa team with chauncey, nene, jr smith, k mart. who knows they might go to the finals. they gace the lakers a big scare lst year so who know. i was shocked to see CARMELO ANTHONY on that chart.
i can’t belive that carmelo anthony ain’t even on the list i predict 30.0 ppg this season for melo not to mention billips he is a great veteran point guard and he has some knowledge about playoffs i think melo is gonna have a kobe like season show the man some respect
