Cleveland Cavaliers' superstar, and arguably the best player in the NBA, LeBron James, was named NBA Most Valuable Player, for the second time in a row. He led the Cavaliers to the best record this season, 61-21, while averaging 29.7 PPG, 8.6 APG, 7.3 RPG. He currently led his team to the Second round of the playoffs, after defeating the Chicago Bulls in 5 Games in the First round.
James had plenty of great performances this Season. For example, this past February, he had 43 points, 13 rebounds and 15 assists against the Denver Nuggets. He also had 37 points, 9 rebounds, 12 assists, and a game winning block, against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
He received 116 first-place votes out of 123, Kevin Durant finished second with only four votes. It's no surprise, James has been the most consistent player in the league, and he definitely deserved this award more than anyone else.
James was presented the Award this Sunday by NBA Commissioner, David Stern.
"To be MVP is definitely an honor. It's a humbling experience," James said. "To receive that while you are trying to win a championship, you have to balance it out. I've been able to do that so far."
Winning this award is very important to LeBron James, but he has made it clear that a Championship run is a lot more important than individual accomplishments. Here are some highlights of the Press Conference on Sunday:
