4-time MVP

Four regular season MVP’s, one NBA Championship, one NBA Finals MVP and countless haters.

Who’s the NBA player I’m talking about? It’s LeBron James from the Miami Heat.

He won his fourth MVP in the last five seasons, two of which came with the Heat. James joins Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain as the only five players in the NBA to win the MVP at least 4 times.

James averaged 27 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in the season. He shot 56% from the field, 40% from three and 75% the free throw line. Incredible numbers but fans shouldn’t be surprised because James demands perfection out of himself.

He missed out being named unanimously named MVP by one first place vote and that one vote went to Knicks Forward Carmelo Anthony. Check out this cool gif in honor of James winning the MVP.

On a day that all eyes were on James, he tried hard to take the attention away from himself and thank other teammates, family and friends and even thanking his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

James said in his MVP press conference that he appreciates the award and the individual accolades but he couldn’t have done it without his teammates, his brothers, and his goal is to win a second NBA Championship.

Now, he’s without a doubt the best player in the NBA and on the verge of back-to-back championships.

Kobe Bryant, Russell Westbrook, Derrick Rose all sidelined for their teams so it’s lining up for James and the Heat to win the championship again.

What exactly does this MVP award mean?

            For James, it’s business as usual and the only trophy he wants to hold is the Larry O’Brien as the confetti rains down on him.
