Why did Kobe Bryant win the NBA MVP over LeBron James?

Question

I LOVE KOBE BRYANT AND LEBRON JAMES!!!!!!!

OK I AM NOT HATING ON EITHER ONE OF THEM BUT CHECK THIS OUT---------

PPG 30.0 | 28.3 | LeBron by 1.7

RPG 7.9 | 6.3 | LeBron by 1.6

APG 7.2 | 5.4 | LeBron by 1.8

SPG 1.8 | 1.8 | EVEN

BPG 1.1 | 0.5 | LeBron by .6

FG% 0.484 | 0.459 | LeBron by .025

FT% 0.712 | 0.840 | Kobe by .128

3P% 0.315 | 0.361 | Kobe by .046

MPG 40.4 | 38.9 | LeBron by 1.5

LeBron pretty much dominates across the board.

Even though people call him LeBrick and such, he has a higher shooting percenage than Kobe.

Do you think he won it because he is on a better team?

What is your opinion?

Please! no hateful remarks.

Answer 1

So,,, kobe won titles and has accomplished more but I guess that doesnt mean anythign to you,, the are neck and neck great players ,,but kobe is the truth

Answer 2

idk right

Answer 3

MYP= Most Valubale Player, not player with best stsats. The truth is Kobe helped his team better than lebron helped his. Thats why Kobe is MVP. Simple.

Answer 4

I'm still trying to figure that out too.

Answer 5

Because MVP depends on the success of the team. The lakers were a #1 seed.

Answer 6

This is pretty obvious!

The better question would be WHY didn't Steve Nash the reigning MVP did not get a SINGLE MVP vote last season?????

Answer 7

cause he had the better team

like in 2007 dirk won because he was the best players in the best team with mvp type stats

Answer 8

they didnt want kobe to start crying again

Granny Curser...YOU ARE A ******* r****d

the lakers won more than 50 cause they actually have a team...if you're like lebron and is the only person wo can make his own shot then you wouldnt win 50 even if you were in the east

put kobe on the cavs without lebron and theyd be lucky to make it as the 8th seed....so go **** yourself

Answer 9

Hey Huge Laker fan #1 Kobe Fan, you stated that Kobe is "the truth". I hate to brake it to you but as a loyal Celtics fan, I have the right to jump all over that. Do you remember the NBA Finals a month ago? The finals when Paul Pierce DESTROYED Kobe? Yeah, well I do, and guess what Paul Pierce nickname is. THE TRUTH!!! So you wish you had Pierce on the Lakers over Kobe without even knowing it. HA!

And LeBron shoukd have been MVP over Kobe, but Garnett should have won it over them both. He lead the Boston Celtics to the best record in the NBA and the biggest turnaround in NBA history. Garnett got snubbed because he isn't a ballhog fancy dunkin' showoff like the other two.

Answer 10

Cuz LBJ didn't did good in 2008

Answer 11

The only reason Lebrick has a fg% if because he lowers his shoulders and bulldozes to the basket for easy baskets. Lebron is a 6-9 forward and Kobe is a 6-6 guard so he should be outrebounding him. Same with blocks. Congrats on beating Kobe in assist .

Answer 12

cuz of this:

Cavs won 5 less games than last season

Cavs are 2 seedings down

Lakers went to the Finals.

______________________________________...

P.S if Stats were everything, Kobe would have won it on the year he averaged 35.7pts.

Answer 13

lol, Im still trying to figure that out homes

Answer 14

kobe has had more success than lebron this season. stats don't mean much in this case
