al gore would like a recount thank you...
give it to BRUCE and make everyone happy.
If Tim and Tony both play well tonight i really think they should be Co-Mvps. However if Tim goes for like 25 and 15 tonight and Tony is just good then it should go to Tim.
So if Manu goes for 50, with a game winning 3.... is that what it would take for him to get back in all this MVP talk contention? :lol
No... really it ought to be given to the most consistent player of the playoffs... for the last team standing. Were that the case the trophy would go to Duncan. He affects the Spurs effectiveness on both ends of the court.
Perhaps "consistently effective" player. Beno has been VERY consistent ...Quote:

If you're in for statistical comparisons:
Offense: Close with a slight edge to TP
PPG: TD = 20.3; TP = 24.7
Points per shot (PPS): TD = 1.22, TP = 1.23
Points per possession (PPP): TD = 0.98; TP = 0.97
FG%: TD = 50%; TP = 53.3%
FT%: TD = 78.6%; TP = 57.1%
Assists: both are averaging 4 per game
Defense: TD is way ahead even statistically, plus the fact that he is the defensive anchor and the scheme works because of him
Rebounding: TD (10.3) >> TP (4.3)
Turnovers: TD (1.7) > TP (3.0)
Blocks: TD (2.3) >> TP (0.0)
Steals: both are averaging 1 per game.
Intangibles: Even
TP: Some clutch shots and messed up the Cavs' D in games 1 and 2, played good D on Gibson (although JV and Manu were also on Boobie for quite a while)
TD: Clutch FTs, altered shots, double-teamed 50% of the time he posts up which leads to crisp ball movement and the open man.
TD by a small margin for me
