Default Who was the last player to have a better year ?

So we are watching some spectacular individual performances this year, which got me wondering who the last player to have a better year than the following was:

Chris Paul at PG: 22/4/11/3

I'm thinking 89-90 Magic ? Or possibly 90-91 Stockton ?

Lebron James at SF: 31/8/7/2/1

I'm thinking 87-88 Bird ?

The fact that Paul has the highest PER ever is just evidence of how ridiculously stupid that stat is. He is the most overrated player I have ever seen and I have been following since the early 90's

Yeah nothing says overrated like leading your team to 1st place in the toughest conference the NBA has seen in years

He is one of 4 stars on his team.

Peja is the most automatic assist in the league, West is their go-to scorer, and Chandler is the best defender in the league. Bonzi is a quality swingman as well. More importantly, Scott has been coaching unbelieveably well this year. Paul gets way too much credit

Paul = 21.5 ppg

West = 20 ppg

West is a great player, but Paul is their go to guy.
