Okay, then LeBron shouldn't win MVP since he doesn't do it all himself. Having Wade and Bosh on the team should disqualify him, to be honest.Comment

Even though he leads the team in points, rebounds, assists, steals, FG%, 3PT%, and is second in blocks..
I disagreeComment

And, YES, I do think LeBron should be MVP; I am just demonstrating the faulty logic at work.Comment

Re: When it comes to being the best pg in the league, why is Tony Parker ignored
Anyway. LeBron is the front runner for the award right now, but it's not this ridiculously wide margin that some would say. Tony Parker is right there with him. There's a few things we need to relax on in this thread starting with how big the gap is between LeBron and everybody else for MVP. Acting as if Tony is having a good stretch recently like he hasn't been playing well all year. Finally that he is hands down the best point guard in the league. Just two weeks ago when the Clippers were looking like garbage without him, CP3 was the best PG in the league, they play the Spurs and he has a bad night and all of a sudden Parker is hands down the best 1 in the league? Come on now.Comment

Re: When it comes to being the best pg in the league, why is Tony Parker ignored
My MVP formula:
The player must be top 5 overall individually and on a top 5 overall team to qualify. Team rank determined by win%. Player rank determined by the average of PER and WS/48. Score = combined rank with team record as the tiebreaker, lowest score wins.
There are 4 qualifying players right now.
#1 LeBron James 3 points (1 player/2 team)
#2 Tony Parker 5 points (4 player/1 team)
Tie Kevin Durant 5 points (2 player/3 team)
#4 Chris Paul 7 points (3 player/4 team)Last edited by Streaky McFloorburn; 02-22-2013, 08:57 PM."The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism, by those who don't have it." - George Bernard ShawComment

If we are using the logic that Tony Parker doesn't deserve consideration because Duncan and Ginobili on the team, then LeBron doesn't deserve it, either, since Wade and Bosh are no scrubs, either.

To the point of the thread though, I think TP should be in both discussions....but as far as national media goes, he's notComment

Well with the way y'all say that LeBron is going to spontaneously combust because he "does everything", I would think y'all would have him running away with the MVP...lol

I also believe Parker is 2nd in the MVP race right now, according to NBA.com.. So it's not as if nobody is noticingComment

CP3, Rondo, Parker, Rose, Westbrook
(Top 5 PGs in no order)
Curry, Kyrie, Holiday
(the next 3, no order)
What do you guys think?Comment

Would he be as dominant if he wasn't playing for the best coach in the league?
He's having a great stretch at the moment and he did dominate CP3 yesterday but in their two games earlier in the season it was the otherway round.Comment

Well it also depends on team need.. I don't think the Spurs would ever want a guy like Rose over Parker...
With the bulls it's a tough call, sure Rose is their best player and leading scorer but its obvious they don't need a 25ppg PG to still be a damn good team.
Obviously they would take Rose, with youth and potential being the biggest factors, but its tough to say Parker wouldn't be just as good of a fit.
I don't think people realize how well Parker can score the ball when it's needed. And I think his ability to fit in well with other stars and not always demand the ball is huge. He's really the only guard in the top 5 discussion who can take the back seat that well.Comment
