LeBron if Cavs win 50+ (of course depending how many wins the Lakeshow gets).
They should give TD DPOY.

I dont want Timmy getting any kind of trophy but the championship trophy. He needs some rest. Noway will Timmy continue and be a force in the POs at this current pace. And I for one do not want to see the same Timmy in the POs as last season. The way he started off this season is the way he should be playing in the POs. Teams will start turning it up a notch or two come PO time like always. I dont think Timmy has another gear in him. I think hes playing full force right now to keep us above water. If Timmy runs out of gas again, we dont play very well.
If the Cavs has the best winning percentage, yes. LeBron will be MVP.
If not, LeBron can wait.
It is no longer important for TD to win MVP. He got it twice in a row!
The most important stuff for TD right now is to stay healthy, and if possible play as little minutes as the game allows him to stay healthy.
Individual awards are kind of stupid. I'd rather Tim keep playing like he is and lead us to another championship this year. One thing for sure is he's been awesome this year.
I don't know about MVP, but his reputation as a clutch player is really shining through these days...
Yeah, the MVP award in particular is pretty suspect. As much as I've had my problems with him, it's absurd that Shaquille O'Neal only has ONE.
The only thing Duncan "chases" are wins and Championships. He's never shown us anything that would make it seem like he's out for individual awards or "honor".
It does feel good when the top dog on your team gets the MVP. Duncan has done it, and he's one of only a handful that did it back-to-back. I'm the biggest Duncan homer on this site, I'd like nothing more than for him to rack up MVP's, DPOY's (I really would have liked him to have had one on his resume), and Championships the rest of his career. But realistically, the focus now are the les. He's a team player and that's the team goal. There's no "in case they can't win", they play for that le until they win it or get knocked out.
And, like others have said, if he maintains this pace it's not going to bode well for us in the Spring. We need him at his best then, without Duncan at his best in the Playoffs a Championship will be hard to win.
I do want Duncan to get the DPOY though..if our defense can continue like this and Tim gets his blocking numbers where they usually are, maybe he'll finally get one, since he already deserves 2..
Manu has a better shot at Finals MVP than league MVP... come on people the league isn't going to give Ginobili the NBA MVP even if he averages a 95-76-38-29 line for every game he plays in as long as Kobe Bryant and LeBron James' teams make the playoffs with high seeds in their conferences.
That will be worth it just to hear the spluttering from Yuma.
