11a. LeBron - 6
11b. Wade - 6
13. Bosh - 2

Not perfect or very accurate, but I was just curious how this would turn out. Definitely some surprises. Also, I didn't bother with pre-FMVP days.

This is the actual GOAT list. Nice.

[LoneyROY7]

Kobe more than doubling LeBron. :eek:

[24-Inch_Chrome]

Kobe and Shaq equal. :oldlol:

Duncan over both though. :applause:

[BuffaloBill]

Neat list. 13th place is only 2 points?

[T_L_P]

Good thread original poster.

Where would Derek Fisher be?

[He Strong]

Neat list. 13th place is only 2 points?

I'm sure there are others above him, I just did Bosh since I already had the info up for LeBron/Wade. For example, I assume Dennis Rodman is above Bosh, as is Tony Parker.

[He Strong]

Where would Derek Fisher be?

He has 5 points.

[ShawkFactory]

Why did you list Bosh?

EDIT: just saw your explanation

[salwan]

Someone compute bill Russell pls

If you can get a consensus on which years he was FMVP.

We've gotta get Cavs in here. He posted earlier today about players like Russell winning an equivalent to the FMVP that has fallen out of memory.

[He Strong]

Someone compute bill Russell pls

Excluding FMVPs, he is already at 9. Now just add 2 points for every year you believe he deserved FMVP.

True.

Maybe cats like lazeruss and cavsftw have a clue.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

unlikely

I think fplii has mentioned 7-8 FMVPs as a good guess.

[ZMonkey11]

Isiah should be on there.

Then that makes him clearly #2 on this list. 9 would put him over Jordan.

[He Strong]

Isiah should be on there.

He has 6 points.
