1. LeBron James, Miami Heat
There really isn’t anything left to say about LeBron “King” James. The best player on the planet, he’s won 4 MVP awards in the last season. He’s 28, supposedly at his prime, but is just getting better with year after year.
James is one of the most dominating, physical players in the NBA. He averaged 26.8 PPG, 8 RPG, 7.3 APG and 1.7 SPG at .565 Field goal efficiency. He led the league in PER last season, with 29.6. He also led Miami Heat to their second consecutive season last year.

He’s coming off his best year so far, and he seems to be showing no signs of slowing down. He’s healthy, and every aspect of his game seems to be improving. He’s emerged as a leader of the Heat, now that Wade’s level of play seems to be dwindling down.
This season, yet again, James is the prime candidate for the MVP award. If he can do anything remotely close to last season, he’ll probably walk away with the award. Can he win the award for the 5th time in 6 years?
