    Wade fine with MVP chances after 15-win season

    For months, Miami Heat president Pat Riley has been telling Dwyane Wade that he’s “BIW,” his text-message shorthand for Best In the World.

    But it’s another acronym beginning to creep into Wade’s psyche.

    Let MVP talk begin. LeBron James, Kobe Byrant, Wade?

    “I’m just happy to be in the discussion,” the star Heat guard said. “Coming from where I came from last year, my team winning 15 games to where we are now, it’s a blessing.”

    Pat Riley new texts:

    To Dwyane Wade: "y.b.S.n." = you better swallow now

    To LeBron: "B.s.I.W." = best sidekick in the world

    To Chris Bosh: "Y.P.G.T.b.l.b.s.y.t.b." = you're pretty good too but let's be serious, you're the third banana

    To Mario Chalmers: "d.f.t.u.a." = don't this up, asshole

    To Erik Spoelstra: "d.g.c." don't get comfortable

    To Michael Jordan: "t.m.h.m.a.t." = tell me how my ass tastes

    MVP next year is either Durant or Kobe. I don't see any other scenario that could possibly happen.

    If the HEAT end up with the best record in the league (very likely) and they are playing beautiful basketball, LeBron being the best player on the team....

    he can win MVP.

    in fact, This is a guaranteed discussion when MVP talk heats up.

    "Who's the mvp for the heat???"

    Pretty much guaranteed that either Bron or Wade will be in MVP talk and will win it IF the Heat is dominating on the court

    If you're in the Miami Heat this year, you are NOT winning the MVP, even if your team goes 82 - 0. That's a fact

    LeBron's scoring may go down, but I think the rest of his stats will go up. If LeBron averages 22-24 ppg, 9 apg, 8-9 rpg, he's going to be in the MVP discussion, absolutely.

    But this thread is getting off topic. This is about Pat Riley's new texts to people...

    if they are playing REALLY well as a team Wade and Lebron will split votes ...

    Im guessing Howard, durant and kobe will be favorites but who knows and really I could care less if kobe gets it ...

    MVP awards has been hore ever since they stopped giving it to MJ ...and I'm not a huge MJ fan.

    But ever since they have been looking for reasons not to give it to the best player every year ...

    yup, too many times the best player doesn't get it.

    most of the time, they give it to the best player on the best team....which ignores the great players on teams that are "middle of the pack" but in reality, those teams are complete without the great player.

    those guys get ignored.

    that was the case with Kobe in 2006, he should have won that one and not the 2008 one

    2008 was chris paul's year.

    I thought he deserved it in 2006 and 2008 but i can see why stat heads preferred CP3 ...

    Like I said award means little to me Nash should not have 2 ...one maybe i would of gave 1 to Lebron 1 to Kobe

    Ditto Malone ...they robbed MJ one year
    Barkley was great but he has one of Mj's too ...

    If OKC has a better record than last year and KD average around 30 ppg then he will get it Unless Miami Heat record would be like 68 wins or more, then someone on their team will get MVP.

    LeBron lost his chance at MVP in the playoffs. Back-to-back MVPs but couldn't get his team to the Finals? Even averaging a triple-double wouldn't be enough for writers to vote him in again.

    Him going to gravy train in Miami instead of making his own way in Cleveland, NY, or Chicago sealed it.

    I can see LBJ averaging a triple double next year...

    He averaged about 30, 8, and 8.

    I can see him averaging 20,10, and 10.

    Did you see how easily LeBron got that triple double in game 6 when he didn't care about helping his team score? That's what Miami might be like.

    Well, there's one thing we know - Lebron is MVP of the Greenwich, CT boys and girls club. And thats something Wade's chances will never be "fine" with.

    Who knows where those kids would be now if not for that special. They might be forced to relocate to a community where everyone makes only a couple million a year. It'd be devastating.
