Rings by MVP/FMVP winners list

or

#of MVP's with rings as tie breakers

the kobe vs lebron agenda criteria for ranking players

whats closer to a realistic ranking ( giving token FMVP to bill russell for being named after it ) - finals mvps as tie breakers




Rings by mvp winners:

#1 - Russell ( 11 )
#2 - Jordan ( 6 )
#3 - Kareem ( 6 )
#4 - Magic ( 5 )
#5 - Kobe ( 5 )
#6 - Shaq ( 4 )
#6 - Duncan ( 4 )
#8 - Bird ( 3 )
#9 - Wilt ( 2 )
#10 - Lebron ( 2 )
#11 - Hakeem ( 2 )



MVPs with rings and FMVPs as tie breakers:

#1 Kareem ( 6 )
#2 Russell ( 5 )
#3 Jordan ( 5 )
#4 Lebron ( 4 )
#5 Wilt ( 4 )
#6 Magic ( 3 )
#7 Bird ( 3 )
#8 Moses ( 3 )
#9 Duncan ( 2 )
#10 Pettit ( 2 )
#11 Nash ( 2 )
#11 Karl ( 2 )





whats closer to the consensus top 11 best players in history

whats closer to what we can all agree on

what formula matches common sense?

under lebron fans criteria... jordan and lebron are separated by 1 spot

under kobe fans criteria... jordan and lebron are separated by 10 spots

which makes more sense?

why can't you do fmvps + mvps as tiebreaker? :lol

tie breakers only separate guys with the same ring total anyway

it would really only switch duncan and shaq in the first list. but the point of this is to show #of mvp's dont matter. so why use them.

the mvp award is more of a club where members are voted in.

some guys get voted a ton cause theyre liked more

but even the hated guys get a token out of pitty like kobe, shaq, hakeem.. you know the media didnt like those guys





regardless... fact is kobe fans criteria matches what 99% of the consensus top 10 or 11 players are on ISH and around the web forums

None of these criteria even begin to make sense. To start with, "rings by MVP" is meaningless because it doesn't tell you if they were playing at MVP level when they won it...

Kobe wasn't an "MVP" type player for all of his 5 rings. Shaq was the second best player in the 2006 team, Kareem was a second banana for several of his championships, etc.

only problem is... something voted by espn at the end of a regular season isnt on the exact same level as a guy who leads his team to the championship


dominant statistical rings will always be worth more than an mvp

they use it every damn day


they saif lebron passed kobe a long time ago... nearly every day if not more than once


"lebron 4 mvps and 2 rings/2fmvps is greater than kobes 5 rings, 1mvp and 2 fmvps


they list mvps as the end all be all and rings as the tie breaker

theyve been saying lebrons the best small forward all time since he won his 4th mvp

all lebron fans ever do is use mvp's first in their discussions. theyre all about it

then list fmvps or rings are tie breakers in discussions

That's a pretty fair one.

And while any weighted adjustment applied to any category would be subject to an agenda of ranking players.

I believe it may be easier to first rank players based off of these numbers, than twitch them by historical standards.

And if we are talking about individual players, Defensive Player of the Year should matter as well

basketball reference already have a Hall of Famer probabilty calculation.

I wonder if we could base off of that and find a different measure to rank players.

The equation would probably blow up, because we would also be factoring in total points scored, total playoff points etc.


But hey, statistics are just damn lies.

I would like to think that it is safe to conclude that as the Finals MVP is named after the Great Bill Russell. He has earned a Finals MVP in every single season in which he had won the Finals.

I can't be bothered to check it, but pretty sure that's logic.


And to say Kareem isn't in the discussion with MJ.

if kobes name was michael jordan...he wins mvp in atleast 4 or 5 of these years

2003
2006
2007
2008
2009
2010

ive seen jordan win his first mvp without even having a top record. it was just his name, stats, hype and the fact that he made the playoffs

the media will make anyone mvp if they feel the need to

they broke their criteria for nash's 2nd mvp, they broke their criteria for lebron in 2012

neither guy had a top 3 record or were a confrence #1 seed


but kobe always lost to that made up criteria of "best player on the team with the best record" excuse

Yes, but there is no chance the russell wins even close to 11 rings in another era so it i think it's fair. Shaq wasn't allowed to get MVPs (well besides 1), since he played with kobe, instead he gets 3 titles and 3 fmpvs (6 points). If kobe didn't have shaq he wasn't winning a 3 championships during that stage of his career, so instead of getting an extra mvp or 2 he gets 3 rings and therefore 3 points.


Kareem won most of his MVPs in the 70s when he didn't have great help for the majority of those years and it was very difficult to win a championships. Whereas kobe played with a better player than him for the first 7 years, so he couldn't get MVPs, instead he got rings. And shaq was getting outvoted by mj, hakeem, Drob, and then had a top 5 player with him in the early 2000's (which allowed him to get the rings and FMVPs). And he was still awarded an MVP during that time too.

It balances out.

except lebron can win 2 mvps playing with multiple legends

kobe and shaq arent allowed cause they play with 1 other legend


just as i said. the media blacklisted kobe and shaq. they gave out fake criteria to keep it out of their hands whether kobe was with shaq or not.. both guys suffered

even shaq in 2005 suffered

they just dont like those 2 guys


jordan won mvp playing with pippen and rodman

bird and magic won 3 mvps each and had the equivalent of 2 shaqs or 2 kobes on their roster with all the legends

Yet again, so much fail in a single post.

Kobe was not the most valuable player in 2003. He wasn't even more valuable than Shaq.

Duncan was head and shoulders above him as a player at that point: it's well documented.

Sure, Kobe was at the height of his game aesthetically. But as if I or anyone interested in the game should give a shit about that. In what way was Kobe more valuable to the Lakers in 2003 than Duncan was the Spurs the same year?

now completely change your reasoning behind kobe not being mvp in 2003 and make up a new reason for 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009,2010

cause it was clear any reason you gave shaq or duncan for 2003 is a reason to make kobe league mvp during that run.. skill/dominance/ heads and shoulders kobe was on another planet than anyone else in the league..


like i said. its about whoever the media wants to vote. they make up the criteria every year. they change it to fit their agenda. same as any of us

its a story they gotta sell. its propaganda and theyre gonna push what they wanna write about

nobody wanted to write about kobe.. hated players dont get mvps. its a fact. controversial guys might luck out one award

Multiple legends, what? I wouldn't consider dwade a legend, top 20 player at best, and he's one of my favourite players. Bosh, a legend? :roll: :roll: Just stop...And don't mention a 40 year old ray allen either...


Thing is, Lebron didn't win MVP in 2011 because of the reasons you said, had another top 5 player and had a lot of hate from the media.

Comparing pippen, an old rodman and mchale to shaq :facepalm

Magic won his MVPs in the late 80's when Kareem was 40, big difference to winning MVPs with DOMINANT, PEAK SHAQUILLE O'NEAL on your team.

I don't count Kobe's 3 rings because he was Shaq's sidekick. Jordan and LeBron were NEVER sidekicks and therefore, all their rings count.

You could replace Kobe with TMac etc. and Shaq would have still won all those titles so Kobe is irreplaceable so his rings there don't count.

Rings by fmvp/mvp winners? Kobe 5? Are you sure about that? Out of those 5 only 2 were that.... Kobe didnt win FMVP or was even close to a MVP winner during his first 3 rings, better yet wasnt even the best player on his team....



Anyways, to answer the question, its a combination of BOTH... which means Lebron > Kobe, especially after this Finals....

Rings by MVP/FMVP winners list

or

#of MVP's with rings as tie breakers

the kobe vs lebron agenda criteria for ranking players

whats closer to a realistic ranking ( giving token FMVP to bill russell for being named after it ) - finals mvps as tie breakers




Rings by mvp winners:

#1 - Russell ( 11 )
#2 - Jordan ( 6 )
#3 - Kareem ( 6 )
#4 - Magic ( 5 )
#5 - Kobe ( 5 )
#6 - Shaq ( 4 )
#6 - Duncan ( 4 )
#8 - Bird ( 3 )
#9 - Wilt ( 2 )
#10 - Lebron ( 2 )
#11 - Hakeem ( 2 )



MVPs with rings and FMVPs as tie breakers:

#1 Kareem ( 6 )
#2 Russell ( 5 )
#3 Jordan ( 5 )
#4 Lebron ( 4 )
#5 Wilt ( 4 )
#6 Magic ( 3 )
#7 Bird ( 3 )
#8 Moses ( 3 )
#9 Duncan ( 2 )
#10 Pettit ( 2 )
#11 Nash ( 2 )
#11 Karl ( 2 )





whats closer to the consensus top 11 best players in history

whats closer to what we can all agree on

what formula matches common sense?

:confusedshrug:

Imo there are 12 guys who all have a csse at top 10. Oscar Robertson should almost be a lock for top 10. Outside of his 1 ring 1 mvp ( which fits this criteria). He has arguably greater stats than even Wilt when you factor in the fact he was a guard.

Neither. MVP's can be misleading and they aren't a best player award. Rings are a team accomplishment.

Editing posts and still replying. Bran did **** your pathetic life up. Salty as **** :oldlol:

BTW, are you gonna kill yourself if the Heat 3peat? That would mean that 29 year old LeBron is officially above a geriatric chucker you worship.

I'm pretty sure the death toll if he fails against senior Duncan will be much higher than the bodycount of a "Kobe fan".... If we go by 2011 numbers, it was actually pretty high.

Don't hold you breath nikka....u mad and u know it. Don't choke like your boy...

BTW the alternate account business is the biggest b1tch made fashion trend on ISH. Have some self-respect.
