What’s amazing is bird also finished 2nd 4 times as well as 1st 3 times. He was as dominant in the 80s as any player was in any decade. People outside of Boston and la tend to forget how great he was.

Jordan with a 33 8 and 8 with 3 steals and 31 PER then follows up with a 34 7 and 7 with 3 steals again on 31 PER in an era defined by lockdown defense and not winning MVP has to be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Maybe after Wilt not winning MVP with 50 and 25 😂
Bill russel winning all those mvp awards is redicilus..he didn't deserve them..he just played in the best team of his era.. statisticaly all the others were better
I’m sorry, but Wilt Chamberlain scoring 50 points per game in a season Oscar Robertson, everything a triple double for the season it was Russell who took the MVP. Wow.
The Yellow highlighting is kind of annoying, or the should be another colour to symbolise lead the league just not the best of the four/five being shown.

He's the GOAT 🐐 🙌
Being 2nd averaging 50... 😳
Nice overview though 👍
Points aren't everything.
Zek Got Robbed In 86 He Led The League wit Almost 14 Assist a game
Wilt chamberlain was truly snubbed so many times
İmagine averaging 50-25 and not winning the MVP, biggest joke ever
What was his team’s record? Barely .500. So he took a bad team to mediocrity.
It’s bc players voted on it and wilt dominate them so bad they refused to vote for him 😭
Imagine averaging 50ppg and yet your team only has the 4th best offense out of 9 teams.
50 points, but only 2.4 assists. Basketball is a team game.

You realize basketball is played on 2 sides of the court right? Not just offense.
I was looking at win shares and I know the game is 94 feet long

LeBron should have won in 2018 too.
Name one player in NBA history who can shoot, rebound, and pass better than Larry Bird? You can't. But I'll wait.

Basketball is much more than box score stats. But, Magic had pretty stats too those years.
Thank you so much, I suggested this some weeks ago
チェンバレンとロバートソンは今の基準ならもっとMVP取れたんでしょうね
あとはやっぱりカリームとレブロンの異常な活躍期間の長さが目を惹きます

Nash two MVP awards, Stockton never in the top 5. But Stockton is widely considered better than Nash. So strange.
Stockton would never get enough votes with Malone on the team

Wilt should've been MVP every year from 1960-68
Just like Kareem from 70-78
Bill got half of them MVPs because they was the best team in which how they should have keep the rule
Disagree. Nba emphasizes winning as a big part of the equation as it should be.
lebron for about 14 straight years too.
@@chocdaies8901. That’s a horrible take
2. The reason Wilt didn’t win more is bc he dominated the league and the other players hated him
YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE TOP 9 GREATEST NBA PLAYER

and , LeBron, James
Nikola Jokić
Barkley got robbed in 1990 wow

Michael Jordan
Wilt averaged 50 one year and didn’t win mvp
