08:08 AM ET 02.20 | In an odd twist, the Heat, one year removed from chemistry issues, have come together like few others in a lockout-shortened 2011-12 -- led alternately by Dwyane Wade and LeBron James. So who's better? Who's the Heat's best player? "I'm not a huge fan of co-MVPs, but in this case it's perfect," reserve forward Shane Battier said, running away from the question as fast as he was in closing out Sunday on Orlando's 3-point shooters. "But the way they're doing it, Dwyane first every game and then LeBron, no, that's not be design. They're good and playing well. But I don't know if they're good enough to call which quarters they're going to be doing it." It just seems that way.

There's a couple of things here. If MVP is voted by humans Lebron doesn't stand a chance. I

I mean I can't see how any rational being will look at his name and vote for him. He's disgusting damning piece of creation. And don't even talk of his all star selection. Nike and NBA conspired against the will of the voters to get him in there... Don't be fooled Cleveland.. Lebron doesn't give a squat about you... he already stabbed you on National TV. He hires a new PR agent and all of a sudden he's saying he loves Cleveland... man F that joke.... His statement of wanting to come back to Cleveland is all planned. Riley, Arison and Wade all had to sign off on it all to fool Cleveland and the rest of the league to show him some love. Lets get real here... if Pat Riley was slighted by that statement he would have slammed Lebron and benched him to be traded right away... this is Lebron and his new PR agent trying to buy some love.. F them and F that MVP crap. Knicks is loaded... we're coming for your throat. Call Gilbert the prophet...

You my friend are a HATER in every sense of the word. You dont have to like the guy but give him his due...DUDE IS PLAYING GREAT BALL!!! Now come playoff time we have to see but right now he is clearly the MVP. Hell it is plenty of players I dont like but they can ball and I cant take that from them. I swear you sound like some little hurt girl. GET OVER IT!

I don't care if he's averaging 100ppg. I just don't like the guy not because of what he said but because of what he did... he's not a genuine person. Now if you do business with bad people that can get the job done that's you. But with me everything comes with being a good person... if y're not honest, arrogant and feel like you are better than everybody else I careless if you find the cure to death... I aint dealing with you. I mean look. He's under a contract with Miami and he's already talking going back to Cleveland... what kinda arrogance is that? Now if you can't stomach my opinion go catch an esteedee on south beach like Wade...

By their deeds we shall know them... if you don't know what Lebron has done to the city people of Cleveland you aint reading hard enough....

Personally I think Kris Humphries from the NJ Nets should be MVP.

Lol.. is it because he got dropped like it's hot?

If Chicago gets best record.......I'd vote for tom tibs as mvp. I don't care if he's a coach

lol but i have to agree. I'm a heat fan, but tibs shows he belongs and will be a legendary coach.

Why would he NOT pass to the best finisher around the rim in the game? DUH. When Lebron is breaking with Wade and ____(fill in blank...Joel Anthony is a great example), who would you pass to? The guy you know will finish or the guy who blows layups? By trying to discredit Lebron, you actually make a point of how high his basketball IQ is.

February 20, 2012  10:38 AM ET

LeBron is clearly the best player in basketball and is averaging something like 29/8/8. So I expect him to win MVP. Wade is not even the best SG in basketball let alone MVP.

Your a woman aren't you? Go catch an STD....your definitely a woman of the female dog nature. You idiot so I guess Melo didnt pull the same trick minus the dumb ESPN bid....Melo was under contract with Denver and was talking a bout NY!! That dont make him a bad person. How can you say with you everything comes with being a good person when you do nothing but attack dude. You spit hate out your mouth daily....WHATS GOOD ABOUT THAT DUMMY!!!! Walk how you talk. Your such a lame excuse for a man. You talk about dude moms and anything else you can find bad to say. If you were genuine then you would move on. Dont try to make like you so professional. Now I will let you get back to being LOST!!!
