How difficult is it to win the double MVP + scoring champion in a single season? With only 3 players in history, Alexander is the first in active service

Among the personal honors of the NBA, the most important regular season player award is the most valuable player award, namely MVP! Furthermore, the "scoring king" is also the most direct proof of personal offensive ability. Of course, the selection comes from the media and voting, and for this is only a reference for the "best".

In the playoffs, the championship is the honor of the team, and individuals can also compete for the finals MVP with excellent data and the influence of the competition during this period. It is generally called "double MVP" with the MVP awards in the regular season!

According to our logic, getting an MVP in the regular season generally shows that the player's personal data is excellent and his team is well-trained. In most players who get an MVP, the teams in which they are in the top three regular season records, should they win the championship in the playoffs more likely?

But as a result, stars who win MVP+ scoring champions in a single season often cannot lead the team to win the championship in the playoffs, which also makes it a luxury to complete MVP+FMVP.

data shows that it is very difficult to win the scoring champion + MVP + FMVP in a single season in the NBA! There are only three players in the NBA history so far. Who are these three players?

The first time that the player who won the MVP+ scoring champion in a single season and led the team to win the championship in the playoffs and won the MVP in the finals is Tian Gou! Jabbar averaged 31.7 points and 16.0 rebounds per game for the Bucks in the 1970-71 season!

This average score made Jabbar the scoring champion of the season and also won the regular season MVP while playing the whole season! In the playoffs, Tiangou averaged 26.6 points + 17.0 rebounds and led the team to win the championship. He also got the FMVP, becoming the first player in NBA history to win the MVP + Scoring King + Finals MVP in the same season.

Jabbar made a great success in the 1970-71 season, his sophomore season. He played in 82 games, averaging 40.1 minutes per game, scoring 31.7 points, 16.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists, shooting 57.7% from the field and shooting 69.0% from free throws.

Jordan is the second player to do it and has completed it in a row and achieved 4 times in his career! Among them, for the first time in 1991, he averaged 31.5 points + 6.0 rebounds + 5.5 assists + 2.7 steals + 1.0 blocks per game, and as a guard, he reached 53.9% in shooting percentage!

scoring champion, MVP obviously has no chance to run, and in the finals, he also won the championship in 5 games. After winning the FMVP, Jordan became the second player after Jabbar to complete the double MVP+ scoring champion in a single season in NBA history.

The following year, Jordan still led the team to the Eastern Conference playoffs in the regular season and averaged 30.1 points + 6.4 rebounds + 6.1 assists + 2.3 steals per game, leaving the MVP and the scoring champion award without any suspense.

During the playoffs, Jordan averaged 34.5 points per game and won 6 finals. There is no doubt that FMVP is Jordan's again, which allowed the God of Basketball to be a regular season MVP + scoring champion + finals MVP for two consecutive years!

Then, Jordan achieved such a feat in 1996 and 1998, with the opponents defeated in the two finals being the Supersonics and the Utah Jazz, with 6 games in the same game. Even though he was already in the late twilight, he still dominated the field.

For this reason, Jordan has won the double MVP+ scoring champion four times in his career, which is also the reason why he is the well-deserved No. 1 player in NBA history. After Pippen grew up to Rodman and other players who are suitable for the triangular offensive system, Jordan was unstoppable!

The latest player who can achieve double MVP+ scoring champion in a single season is the Sharks! In 2000, when Kobe had become the independent star, O'Neal averaged 29.7 points, 13.6 rebounds and 3.0 blocks in the regular season.

The Lakers in the playoffs were unstoppable under the leadership of the OK combination. O'Neal's average per game in the playoffs was even more powerful, reaching 30.7 points + 15.4 rebounds + 2.4 blocks. In the end, not only won the MVP in the finals, but also gave the three consecutive championships a fantastic start. Who will be the next one? Curry, James and Durant obviously don’t have much time and opportunity. The age and team’s lineup structure determine that it will only become increasingly difficult to fight for this record before retirement! But Alexander is expected to become the first player to do it this year!

Average 32.7 points + 5.0 rebounds + 6.4 assists + 1.7 steals + 1.0 blocks per game in the regular season. As a guard, he shot 51.9% + 37.5% from the field, and led the Thunder to the first record in the league. This MVP+scoring champion deserves its reputation.

At present, Alexander led the team to the finals and has won the MVP of the Western Conference Finals. If the Thunder can defeat the Pacers in the finals, then FMVP is likely to belong to Alexander. At that time, he will become the only one in the single season of the double MVP + scoring champion!
