All PistonForum voting must be submitted by April 20, 2006. Selected your winners based on a 1-2-3-4-5 system. When I tally the voting, the winner will have the lowest score, based on 1 to 5. For example, if 50 Forumites select Chauncey Billups number 1, he will have 50 pts. I look forward to your voting and explanations. This should be interesting. All votes will be available to all viewrs...unlike the AP. Go 4 it!

BROTHER HQ :
1. Lebron James, Cleveland
2. Chauncey Billups, Detroit
3. Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas
4. Tony Parker, San Antonio
5. Kobe Bryant, LA

........James is just phenominal and some us remember how the Cavs were before he got there. But his numbers are so consistent as well as phenominal.All i can say is...Jordanesque.
.........Big Shot was Mr. Big Efficiency this year. I didn't like his aloofness in a lot of games and playing down to the competition. But he was the leader of a great team. He'll get his due in the Finals.
.........Dirk is so smooth. His team was arguably on the best team until the last week or so. I can't see him becoming truly great until they get a BEN-like fource to play along side him.
.......Parker or Nash? All I know is take Nash away and u still have Barbosa and some great shooters. Take Parker away and I salivate. I hate him! and yet he keeps going and going. Spurs are 60-19 with a half-Duncan and Ginobli.
........Kobe= 35 PPG. And who else do u worry about on that team? He deseves votes because he wont concede any game. I never see him take a play off.

1. C. Billups (best player on far and away the best team)
2. L. James (bigest uptick)
3. S. Nash (No Nash, no playoffs)
4. K. Bryant (No Kobe, no playoffs)
5. D. Nowitski

Honorable mension: C. Anthony, T. Parker, V. Carter, E. Brand.

1. Lebron (He will lead the Cav`s over the Wiz in 1st round)
2. Nowitzki (He will lead the Mav`s over the Spurs and to the Finals)
3. Elton Brand (He will lead the Clip`s to the 2nd round)
4. Kobe (He will avg 38 only to be eliminated in 1st round)
5. Chauncey (He will lead his team to NBA Championship, and recieve his 2nd NBA Finals MVP, the one that really counts........

1) Labron James, just recently stepped up at the end of games too
2)Kobe Bryant, w/o Kobe the Lakers would be 20-62
3)Elton Brand, an assist from veteran Sam Cassel got him to MVP consideration
4)Steve Nash, only because they lost 3 key players from last year and still managed to get 50+ wins
5)Dirk Nowitski- saw him hit plenty of clutch shots to bring his team back and get to the those 60 wns

Chauncey had my early votes, but his play as blended in with the rest of Pistons the last two months. He would be # 6 now

My other honerables would be DWade, TParker
