LeBron, obviously.

It's not really fair though. 2012 is still "peak" LeBron. 2009 is the tail end of Kobe's (long) prime.

Lebron is the clearly superior player.

Not sure if serious... the stats / performances were greater by Lebron, except for that, he got an MVP aswell, keep also in mind Lebron was very close to win DPOY there, as i recall it he actually got robbed.

You recalled wrong because he didn't deserve it in his career ever.

Easily Kobe. Played out West, didn't have the refs in his pocket, and actually deserved his FMVP. LeBald had a rich mans Pau as well as prime Dwade:lol . No comparison supporting cast wise.

Stern had already decided who was winning it all in 2012 before the series even began.

You are probably thinking of 2013 where he was 2nd in MVP and thought he got robbed by Marc Gasol.

Somebody is mad that is favorite player couldn't even get his team into the playoffs without Lebron.

:roll:

This dude is having a meltdown with all these Lebron threads
