The 80's showtime Lakers had it. Jabbar,Magic,Worthy all won the FMVP during one point of time.
3 Finals MVP players on the same team who won the FMVP on that team? Ever?

I still think Manu deserved the FMVP in 2005. Point being: could have been 4.
And a good point; I'll never forget the way Manu played that series. The wailing hair!!
Forget the hair -- Manu was the architect of every run throughout that series. We were offensively stagnant when he wasn't on the court.
its amazing to this day that its still the case. there are times we start slow and Manu comes in, things start to click
Been the oil for the machine since he got here...raising my glass.
Manu's 2yr/$14mm deal was earned in full with this years playoff performance alone. He was special.

GINOBILI!!!
Yeah, it'll be a sad day when he retires.
Either give Duncan the first 4 or give him two while splitting the others between Manu/TP!
y'all! That's Tim's MVP FOH
As my fav athlete ever, I want Manu to get one FMVP. Unlikely now, but cmon, only 2 All-Star appearances is a crime! (Though it benefited him in resting him)
Most folks think the turnaround in Game 5 came with Leonard's three that gave us our first lead. And that was a shot in the arm. The crowd went crazy.
But look at the game film again. Manu followed up with TWO great drives to the basket through traffic, one a dunk, and we began to pull away. Look at the determination on Manu's face as he went in and over anyone in his way. Everyone went bonkers again in the stand--it was an absolute wall of sound so loud that you couldn't talk to the person next to you. I think most of us knew at that moment that we would not be beaten.
The incredible thing about Manu's 2005 finals performance was that he was soooo close to mvp even though he was essentially a spectator for two games because of that crazy deep tissue injury he had.
See game 5 June 15 2014!!!
Maybe. Maybe not. He (Turnobili) won't be competing for one next year either. So much for that record....
Duncan's 2005 contributions getting thrown under the bus by re s again per par.
he saved our ass against Dallas, played well vs okc and Miami including sparking our game 5 comeback. Your shtick is dead
Manu was amazing, but the way Tim matched and exceeded the play of the Wallace bros was epic. That tandem was great in those years; Tim earned that FMVP by going toe to toe and besting them both!
Timmy was the best Spurs player in all 5 playoffs we won the le, to me the award should be playoff MVP!
More like not being blinded by hate unlike most of re ed fans here. Wastes of sperm.
I thought Tim Duncan while he didn't play great battled his ass off the entire series on two bad ankles against at the time the best defensive team in the NBA. And he showed a lot of heart in game seven
