It's been 10 years since a post player won FMVP...

[ninephive]

2014 - Kawhi Leonard
2013 - Lebron James
2012 - Lebron James
2011 - Dirk Nowitzki
2010 - Kobe Bryant
2009 - Kobe Bryant
2008 - Paul Pierce
2007 - Tony Parker
2006 - Dwayne Wade

Last post player to win was Duncan in '05 (and really that could have gone to Ginobili as well, which would have made it 2 more years of non-post players until you hit '03 Duncan).

Looking at the future, it could be several more years (maybe Anthony Davis?) until we have a dominant big man with a good enough cast to a championship. Thoughts?

Lebron.

man can't believe this was 10 years ago :( im getting old

[Dragic4Life]

Dirk is a PF?
He doesn't count as a post player. Dirk is a long range shooter.

The closest on that list to a post player is really, as I mentioned, Lebron. He's a PG/SF/PF hybrid.

You're an idiot.

Dirk is a post player. As much as Garnett or Anthony Davis.

Dirk vs. Ibaka/Collison :lol

Biggest mis-match in NBA history. Dude had 24 free throws.

Thunder have never had any big men worth a shit.

[ImKobe]

what are Kobe and Dirk?


08-09 was the year Kobe worked with Hakeem and started going to the post more.

[CeltsGarlic]

OP has now idea that there is "low" and "high" post area's on the court..

Never played basketball irl confirmed.

Being able to post up =/= being a post player.

[ImKobe]

Being able to post up =/= being a post player.


Well, at least we can agree that Dirk is a post player, right?

[MP.Trey]

10 years since 2011 huh? Time sure flies.

[ShawkFactory]

For the most part. Kind of hard not to utilize the post when you're 7 feet.

Kevin Love has range.

Paul Millsap has range.

Chris Bosh has range.

Are they not post players either?

Ibaka? Does he not count? Olynyk?

[Pointguard]

Change the title to deep post player and it works for everybody. I see your point. It is a reflection of how the game is played now.

[I<3NBA]

You're an idiot.

you're the idiot if you think Dirk is a post player. he's always been a perimeter big. he's not known for his one-legged fadeaways for nothing.
