lol, it's pretty hard to win the Finals MVP and not win the le. Those kind of go together with the exception of like 1 time.
LeBron James is the first player since Tim Duncan (2003) to win the NBA le, NBA MVP, and Finals MVP all in the same season.
First of all, congrats to LeBron.
Potential conversations...
Who would you take, 03 Duncan or 12 James?
Does anyone have a comprehensive list of every player to accomplish this?

Okay, fair enough - but it's very possible to win the le and not win the Finals MVP.
*1999 and *2012
Only 2 Times In NBA History - Let Us Proceed!!!
Triple crown is MVP, Finals MVP, Olympic Gold Medal.
Well then yup, Lebrons got that on lock
And yet - as "easy" as you say it is - this has only happened twice in 9 years. So clearly it is a difficult thing to achieve.
lolol when Kool pulls out the 72 point font, you know a nerve has been struck
Duncan 2003, because you can never go wrong with a big man.
lebron was pretty much unstoppable once Bosh came back to clear things up. If Bosh didn't recover, I think that the C's might've taken them. Once he got back, we weren't able to double Lebron/Wade.
James also had a triple-double in a le-clinching game, as Duncan did in 2003. These things don't happen often...so this could be remembered as James's best year.
TD was only a couple blocks shy of a quad-double. '03 TD was a monster.
Probably. USA barely won in 2008 and Manu's team won in 2004.
LeBron was on the 2008 gold medal team, dude.![]()
We're talking about all in one year, dude. He was also on the 2004 team.
Wade, Bosh and LeBron will never pass up the chance to be tagged as NBA Champions and Olympic Gold Medalists in one year.
lol wtf does the gold medal have to do with anything? a MVP, championship, and finals MVP in the same season is an accomplishment achieved only by a hallowed few.
Yeah, so why not go for more? LeBron is all about winning now so he will never pass this opportunity up.
And besides, he will match Jordan's magical 1992 season if he wins the Gold.
Damn I didn't even think of that.
If you think Team USA is not winning the gold medal in London, you're on crack.
Team USA is going to kick some serious ass in the Olympics.
Silver medal is going to be the championship for the rest of the field, because nobody is taking away gold from the United States with how stacked the roster is.
spursfans always find links between the emerging gods and their old loveboy duncan, classic spurs fans
Yep...because he's just that great. You think we have to stretch to find Duncan on record lists? Trust me; it wasn't hard.
You think so? Interesting...so who has done that?Triple crown is MVP, DPoY and Finals MVP, clown.
Well Lebron is the best defensive player in the league so...
