Very well deserved

ok lets be real anyone who claims to be a golden state warriors fan is a bandwagoner

well lebron was the actual finals mvp by far, but that's not how the system works so...

nigga don't act like you know me. I've been cheering my shitty Cleveland teams forever.

2-5

ify is actually jim brown irl

Iggy first finals MVP since 78' with under 10 PPG regular season

LeBron first in history to lead both teams in PPG, APG and RPG in finals series, even though the last player to win MVP from a losing team was Jerry West in 1969 still seems kinda dumb, even if Iggy guarded well.

still dumb

LEBRON IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW. Holding him to 20 points is a fucking blessing, 38% shooting=blessing. obviously u dont know what ur talking about.

bandwagon_salty

iggy shouldnt have won mvp tho, shoulda been lebron or curry

lebron:
best player in the series, wilt chamberlain levels of minutes played

curry:
altho iggy might have been the more influential player in this particular series, if you look at the 2010 (maybe 2009 i forget which) lakers series where pau outplayed kobe in the finals, kobe still won the mvp. why? because the finals mvp goes to the best performer of the winning team throughout the playoffs INCLUDING earlier rounds but with EMPHASIS on the finals, not EXCLUSIVELY the finals.

or at least that was the argument that was made for why kobe won it over pau

curry got robbed

I mean, it's called finals mvp for a reason lol. That's the reason curry won the regular season mvp.

If the series went to 7 games then I could see Lebron winning it. It didn't help he had a below average game 6 performance. It's just so unlike the NBA to do something like that though.

LET IT BE KNOWN THAT 35 pts, 9 Ast, and 18 Rebs is below average. That either speaks to the ridiculous standard that LeBron set and now has to live up to, or how great that is that the only thing that makes that below average is shooting percentage.

I mean yeah LeBron put up amazing numbers throughout the series but his game impact and how he played could have been better in game 6. He missed a lot of shots down the line and wasn't really taking command like he needed to. Don't get me wrong, he played insane, but filling up the stat sheet like that doesn't always paint the full picture. At least with LeBron, who puts up numbers like that fairly regularly, you have to dig deeper to see when he underperforms.

Ya I know its just for the final series but still, since 78' haha I mean I just don't get how a guy gets MVP from keeping lebron at 38% but Lebron still achieves one of the greatest playoff milestones of all time (Lead both teams in PPG, APG and RPG all series) the MVP should be about individual performance and Lebron had one of the greatest single series individual performances of all time. I still think Iggy is deserving but not nearly as deserving as LeBron

Yeah, I mean there's no doubt that what Lebron accomplished was incredible, as MVP is defined he was the most valuable player in that series. But then there's the politics of it and him being on the losing team and stuff, really be a bold move for the NBA to give the MVP to Lebron even tho he was on the losing team, something they have only done once before to jerry west. but who really knows, it's a lot of what iffs and the debate can go on forever.

and about iggy, he held lebron to below 33% when he was guarding him and had a lot of key offensive contributions in key moments throughout the finals. i think it came down to iggy vs lebron, and since the warriors won it swayed to iggy's way.

I like GSW because i live in Charlotte, and thats where Dell Seth and Stephen live. But the bulls are my favorite team for life.

Thats tight lmao
