Taking stock of the NBA s FMVP in the past 10 years, who is the most controversial? 16 James has the highest value

The two most anticipated individual awards in the NBA every year are undoubtedly MVP and FMVP. Alexander has officially been elected as MVP this season. Considering the Thunder's strong strength, many fans also believe that he is expected to become the first player to win MVP+FMVP in a single season since James in 2013. However, in fact, even if the Thunder wins the championship, Alexander's FMVP is not a foregone conclusion. Looking back at the past few years, some of the names of the stars in the FMVP winners will surprise the fans. Then we will take stock of the FMVP for the past decade. Let's take a look at who got the FMVP and who has the most controversial FMVP and who has the most valuable content!

2024: Jaylen Brown averaged 20.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, 5 assists, 1.6 steals in the finals. In this Celtic lineup in the past, Tatum is undoubtedly the real boss of the team. He is the most comprehensive on the court, and his skills also determine that he has a higher ceiling. However, in the playoffs last year, Brown shone brightly, especially on the stages of the Eastern Conference Finals and the Finals, he showed his aggressiveness on both offense and defense. In the finals, he not only made stable attacks, but also left a deep impression on Doncic's defense. But in fact, even though he won the FMVP, this did not affect Tatum being a better player, so the Celtics boss still had no changes.

2023: Jokic averaged 30.2 points, 14 rebounds, 7.2 assists in the finals. Before the 2023 playoffs, the outside world did not expect that the Nuggets would break out of the siege so easily. This was obviously due to Jokic's unsolvable performance at that time. Under his leadership, only the Solar Energy won them two games in the series. In the finals, Jokic dominated the game. From beginning to end, the Heat did not play any interference role in his individuals, so he eventually became the first player to average 30+14+7 in the finals.

2022: Curry averaged 31.2 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals in the finals. After the Warriors failed to make three consecutive championships in 2019, they experienced major injuries from core players and lost Durant. Therefore, many fans at that time thought that they could no longer return to their peak. As a result, in the 2021-2022 season, Curry still led the Warriors to win the championship again. In this finals, he also played the best performance in his personal finals career against the Celtics. Especially G4 scored 43 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 7 three-pointers in a single game, which is one of the most classic battles in his career. After the final season, Curry successfully made up for his past regrets. With his outstanding personal performance, he finally won the FMVP.

2021: Antetokounmpo averaged 35.2 points, 13.2 rebounds and 5 assists in the finals, with a shooting percentage of 61.8%

Under the leadership of Antetokounmpo, the Bucks defeated the Suns and won the championship, which is also their second championship in team history since 1971. In this round of series, after the first two games, the Bucks were once behind 0-2, but then they won four games in a row and directly won the O'Brien Cup. Antetokounmpo's performance was very stable throughout the series. Even in G2, who lost, he scored 42 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks. In the last game of the finals, he even used 50 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 blocks in a single game, which not only helped the team secure the victory, but also successfully won the FMVP.

2020: James averaged 29.8 points, 11.8 rebounds and 8.5 assists in the finals, and his shooting percentage was 59.1%

Before the 2020 Finals, Davis was undoubtedly the best player in the Lakers, but in the finals, the opposite Heat did not give him the chance to score easily, and even he had to fight with the Heat before receiving the ball in every round. Fortunately, the Lakers also have the outside core James. He took the ball and played at the FMVP level. After the finals, his score, rebounds and assists led the team, and in the end he successfully won the fourth FMVP in his career.

2019: Leonard averaged 28.5 points, 9.8 rebounds and 4.2 assists in the finals. In the 2019 playoffs, Leonard made a shocking personal performance. When the team was about to fall into trouble several times, he stood up to save the team. In the series against the 76ers, he even staged the only tiebreaker-smashing buzzer-beating kill in history. In the finals, although the Raptors had some luck, Durant and Thompson both suffered major injuries in this round of series, it was also the Raptors' ability to seize such an opportunity. In the end, they defeated the Warriors 4-2 to win the championship, and Leonard, as the leader, naturally won the FMVP without any suspense.

2018: Durant averaged 28.8 points, 10.8 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 2.3 blocks in the finals. In 2018, the Warriors' dominance in the playoffs had declined. In the Western Conference Finals, they were once behind 2-3. If Paul hadn't been injured, that round of series would be hard to say. However, against the Cavaliers in the finals, the Warriors easily beat them, and finally successfully swept their opponents and completed two consecutive championships. Durant did not do his best in the finals. It can be seen that he wanted Curry to get this FMVP, but the teams behind him still needed him to stand up and end the series. In the end, he was "forced" to achieve the achievements of two consecutive FMVPs..

2017: Durant averaged 35.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists in the finals. Compared with the 2018 Finals, the 2017 Finals also faced the Cavaliers. At this time, Durant, who showed his best form, obviously had a better dominance. Durant, who is full of desire for championships throughout the series, rarely has a relaxed mentality, so in this case, the Cavaliers are helpless in the face of his offense, and in the end Durant averaged 35+ per game, and his shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage are as high as 55.6% and 47.4%.

2016: James averaged 29.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, 8.9 assists, 2.6 steals, 2.3 blocks in the finals, but in the past 10 years, even if looking at NBA history, James' performance in the finals in 2016 was extremely rare. His five statistics in the entire series can lead the two teams, which is also a unique performance in history. Especially when he was behind 1-3, James' data in the last three games were 41+16+7+3+3, 41+8+11+4+3, and 27+11+11+2+3. It can be said that he dominated the game on both offense and defense in every game. With his outbreak, the Cavaliers became the first team in NBA history to fall behind 1-3 and be able to reverse the finals.

2015: Iguodala averaged 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4 assists, 1.3 steals in the finals. Looking at the personal data, Iguodala obviously is not as good as Curry, who averaged 25+ per game, and anyone can see that the latter is the Warriors' first core. However, the strategic value Iguodala played in that round of the series was also the key to their return. With the team falling behind 1-2, Kerr chose to start Iguodala, and then they ushered in a three-game winning streak and successfully won the championship. This change of formation also allowed the voters at that time to see the importance of Iguodala, so he was finally elected as an upset FMVP.
