LeBron James all but concedes MVP race; Says Kevin Durant has done the most to earn the award

LeBron James has won two-straight MVP Awards and four in the last five years, so he knows a thing or two about the type of basketball it takes to earn the NBA's most coveted individual prize. According to James, Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder has done the most to deserve the award.

All but conceding the race to Durant, James said on Wednesday in Memphis that "it would be great" if Durant won the award.

"I think K.D. has had one heck of a season, and if he was rewarded with the MVP, it would be great," James said. "It would be awesome for him, for his family. It would be a great thing for him. He has played MVP-type basketball."

James went on to say that Durant has been "the most consistent basketball player as far as MVP this year. He has put up some great numbers."

Durant is averaging 32.0 points per game this season to go along with 7.6 rebounds per game and 5.6 assists per game. James is averaging 26.9 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.5 points per game.

yeah, Bran is insecure AF right now, just watch his post game interview in the locker room after the nets game n you can tell. I dont blame him though, there is literally nothing he does better than Durant right now.

You know he is butthurt on some level. Probably doing this to ease the emotional pain when he watches kd get the mvp

What a surprise that LeBron catches flak for telling the truth. Only on ISH.

Now that Durant has improved his play-making I don't see LeBron ever winning an MVP again.

wishful thinking

whats next, you gonna make a thread if LeBron says water is wet?

LeBron tried his hardest to manipulate the media to slow down the KD hype train. Saying shit like "I wish I could take that many shots" and that whole cringeworthy mount rushmore shit.

He now realizes his efforts failed so he's trying to concede so people forget him trying to go full try hard mode and still coming up short.

Why so sensitive, man?
Why so serious?

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Why so serious?

No sweat. Tell us why :confusedshrug:

[Straight_Ballin]
