After winning the first NBA Title against Phoenix Suns.


In recent times after winning an NBA title against the Suns as the underdog, Milwaukee Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo is in the limelight of the world. Now every NBA fan and sports fan has only one question, Who is the best player in the NBA? LeBron or Giannis and some have the suggestion of KD as the best player in the NBA right now.


Milwaukee Bucks won a championship after 50 years as they defeated Phoenix Suns in the NBA Finals with 4-2. Giannis played great in game 6 of the NBA finals. He scored 50 points with 14 boards, 2 assists, and huge 5 blocks from the defensive end. This stat will help him to get the title as the best player in the NBA.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has averaged 35 PPG, 13.2 RPG, and 5 assists in the finals of the NBA. This is a huge number for any player in the NBA. He scored only 20 points with 17 boards in the first game, In the second game, he scored 42 points with 12 boards, 3 blocks, and 1 steal. 3rd game of the NBA finals he scored 41 points with 13 boards. In the 4th game of the NBA finals, he scored 26 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 blocks, and 3 steals. In the 5the game, he was able to score 32 points with 9 boards and 6 assists. 


Giannis played just like LeBron played for his team in the NBA finals. nearly doing well in every field of the game. 



Now LeBron is getting older and he got injury issues in recent times means he was unable to play a full season and this is the reason. LeBron was not healthy this time when he played in the post-season of the year 2020-21. He was not the LeBron we think of him as the king of the NBA. 


After this year's performance, Giannis and Bucks get the edge over LeBron James and the Lakers. Now next year, Giannis will enter the league as the best player in the NBA after winning an NBA championship. 


Giannis has done this without any other superstar but Bucks have very reliable stars like Middleton and Holiday. Jrue Holiday made a clutch steal and Middleton made many clutch shots in the NBA finals.


The suns have no answer of bigs in the Milwaukee Bucks that's how Bucks got the edge of the Phoenix Suns in the NBA finals. They started finals with a great performance at home and took an early 2-0 lead but Giannis and Bucks had other ideas and they won consecutive 4 games to steal a title from the Suns. Suns were a heavy favorite to win a title but Bucks won against all odds.


Giannis also defeated heavy favorite Brooklyn Nets with Kevin Durant and James Harden in the Eastern Semis. Here is the reason why Kevin Durant is unable to take the throne of LeBron James as the king. 


As an NBA champion of the season 2020-21, Giannis takes the throne of LeBron James. Giannis won the NBA Finals MVP.

NBA: Jaylen Brown leads Celtics in a Blowout victory over Cleveland Cavaliers with a record.


In the starting 18 games of the season, he scored 25.2 PPG with 7.9 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.4 blocks. In a game against Cleveland Cavaliers, he scored 46 points with great efficiency. If he will keep up to put this kind of number then he will be a clear favorite to win an MVP award. 

If LeBron James will not score more than 25 PPG with more than 8 rebounds and 8 assists per game with great defensive efficiency then he has no chance to win the MVP award against players like Joel Embiid, Kevin Durant, and young star players like Luka and Jaylen Brown. If LeBron James' team Los Angles Lakers will get the best record with a bigger margin than the second number team in the NBA than LeBron sure has a shot to win it. 


Until the 18 matches of the season Joel Embid is the clear-cut favorite to win the MVP award and if he will not face any injury and his team will do what they are doing now then no one can stop Joel Embiid from winning an MVP award. 76ers are leading the East with 12-6. Joel Embiid scored 27.7 PPG, 11.5 RPG, 2.7 APG, 1.3 SPG, and 1.4 BPG. He is doing great in every field of the game. His team won 12 times and lost only 2 games when he played. 76ers lost all 4 games when he didn't play.


Kevin Durant scored 30.4 PPG with 7.1 RPG, 4.1 APG, 0.8 SPG, and 1.4 BPG. He is another player who has the best chance to win the MVP award if he plays the whole season.   


Giannis can get in the way of LeBron Jame as he is playing right now to win an MVP award. He scored 27 PPG with 10.5 RPG, 5.3 APG, 1.1 SPG, and 1.1 BPG in his first 15 games of the season. 


If LeBron James wants to win an MVP award then he has to put a better number than these kinds of players in the league. His superstar teammate Anthony Davis is not playing like he played in his first season for the Lakers.  


Now, LeBron James is getting older not as super-athletic as he was before and new young talents are playing like an elite of the NBA to win NBA's best awards. 


In the season of 2021, LeBron James has 5% of the chances to win an MVP award.

NBA Rankings: LeBron James once again tops ESPN's best players list. His precious rank was 3 because he missed some games and his Lakers team didn't make into the playoff that season. Anthony Davis joins his teammate LeBron James as the second-best player on the list. 


Here are the Top 7 Players as per ESPN Rankings:


7. Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers):

Damian Lillard was superb in last season's bubble environment until he was injured against Los Angeles Lakers in the playoffs. He averaged nearly 37.6 PPG and 9.6 assists in the bubble as Portland made into the playoffs with no. 8th seeded team in the Western Conference. Lillard improving a lot with every season passed, now he is capable of giving a win to his team on his own. It is a very hard to gaurd a player like him with the skill set he has on the offensive end. Damian has very good handling, post game, good mid range game and he has best skill to knock down long range shots. Last season he averaged 30 PPG with 4.3 RPG, 8.0 APG. Damian was on the 9th number last season.


6. Kevin Durant (Brooklyn Nets):

After winning 2 titles with mighty GSW team he lost a final against Kawhi's Toronto Raptors because of GSW faced injury problem of Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson. Kevin Durant missed last season with Nets due to an Achilles injury. Last season he was not ranked in this list. Now Kevin Durant coming back in the NBA and He is eagrly waiting to take LeBron James' place as the Top player in the league. Always it's hard to make strong come back after faving an Achilles injury. He was making the point as the NBA's most dominant individual force and some of his teammate and other players who played with him during rehab have been giving high hope for Kevin Durant.


5. Kawhi Leonard(Los Angeles Clippers):

He was on the no. 2 list last season by winning an NBA title with Toronto Raptors. Los Angeles Clippers made many moves to give their team best chance to win title including moves of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. They faced a heartbreaking loss to Denver Nuggets in the second round of the playoffs as they have 3-1 lead. Kawhi was aweful in last game against Nuggets in that series. His load management is also a huge problem for him and his team. He has a potential to take his old spot in the ranking and even a thron of LeBron James in that rankings.

Lakers traded some of the key players in the free agency, they traded Dwight Howard, Rajon Rondo, JaVale McGee. Rajon Rondo and Dwight Howard played an important role in the Lakers Championship run. 


Los Angeles Lakers GM Rob Pelinka and the Lakers' front office did a great job. In recent years they got successful with their decision by getting LeBron James and for Anthony Davis, they traded whole Lakers' young talented players.

Los Angeles Lakers got a very big player named Marc Gasol who is a very good player in assisting a ball, in scoring, a very good defender, and very good in pick and roll option. He is a 3-time all-star. The Lakers also got Alfonzo McKinnie.

NBA:  Shaquille O'Neal selects his starting 5 for the all-time. Shaq is one of the most dominant players in the NBA of any era. He is the most dominant player in the post area. 


Shaq selects Lebron James and Michael Jordan in his all-time NBA team with himself Alen Iverson and Kobe Bryant. After this post, he gives a hard task to select a better team to beat this team. Shaq selected this team and challenged fans if they could build a better starting 5 to beat his starting 5 in a 7-game series.        


Shaq is 4 times NBA champion and he won Finals MVP 3 times (2000 to 2001). He won NBA's MVP in 2000, 15 times he selected in an NBA all-star(1993-1998,2000-2007 and 2009). He is 3 times the NBA All-star game MVP(2000,2004 and 2009). He selected 8 times in All-NBA first team(1998, 2000 to 2006), 2 times All-NBA second team, and 4 times all NBA 3rd team(1994,1996,1997,2009). He achieved many things in his NBA career. 


Many fans regard him as the most dominant player of the NBA in any generation. He won 3 peat with another legend, Kobe Bryant, from 2000-2002. He played 19 years in the NBA and some founded a solution to stop him was to foul him. This was the only solution they got because he was very bad at free-throw shooting.  


A team he selected has got what an NBA team to win any trophy. This team has Jordan, LeBron, and Kobe Bryant, Shaq at the center, and Iverson as a point guard. There is no chance for any other all-time team to beat this team with the IQ, paint dominance, killer instinct, and crazy moves from Allen Iverson.

AI never won the MVP trophy. They all selected for the 50 times All-NBA first team. 


The only shooter is not available in this team but they can fill a space of that shooter in their team with the presence of LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and AI. They are all elite defender and scorer. They can create so many open spaces for other players and they have players who can score in sleep in open space.
