NBA Finals MVP

I don't necessarily like the statistical view point for a series finals MVP, it is a guide only for me.

Yes, Lebron James and Steph Curry dominated their team's stats, and so they should have, one had so much isolation play come his way he could help it while the other had a license to shoot and shoot it some more.

I realise this isn't all they brought to their teams and they also produced opportunity for team mates and inspired them when the going got tough, but for me the MVP should be the game changer, the one who made the difference...

For me the MVP was Igudalla hands down, why, because with him the Warriors win hands down, without him maybe not!

There is more to an MVP than statistics, in fact it should be only one of several categories used to determine the value of a player, sure you can look at how the statistics influence many other factors, but the statistics alone are not and never should be the deciding factor IMHO.

One more win in, say, game 6 and I think LeBron is the guaranteed finals MVP.

As it was, a 2-4 series, yes LeBron was the best and most dominant player on court, but I can understand how the judges could be focussing on who was most influential in causing the wins.

It's a great trivia question now but Lebron was pretty outstanding

It's understandably rare for it to happen, but this season I thought Lebron was that much better than anyone else that yes, he still should have got the award despite losing.
