The NBA will announce later today that LeBron James will be named League MVP for the 2008-09 season.
In a fitting tribute to both James and the City of Akron, the annoucement will take place at James' alma-mater, Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary High School and will include all of James' Cavaliers' teammates.
The Cavaliers have called a 4:00PM news conference for this afternoon as well.
LeBron and company will begin the 2nd Round of the Playoffs tomorrow night against the Atlanta Hawks at The Q.

Congrats, LeBron. Now it’s time to bring home the important hardware.
Also, the thought of a full NBA team squeezed in a high school gym is funny.

LeBron got the award he deserved. I’m happy for him and the Cavs. I think it’s cool that he wanted to have the announcement in Akron at SVSM.
Hopefully this will the first of many MVPs for him.

As Lebron has the presser at ASVSM
is becomes clear the dude never wants to leave Ohio.

I never thought he wanted to. But how else could he get the fire lit under Ferry and management?

Great! If he didn’t get it, that would be a scandal. He deserves it hands down. Go Cavs! I was watching some old clips of Jordan and it was interesting to see how he didn’t win championships until he got the other teammates involved and contributing. LeBron has been doing this from day one. He’s on his way!

True, he is getting there
Lebron will win the finals.
If you want a success story just take a look at mine.

Jordan became more succesful when he became
an off-the ball scorer. Before the triangle, Doug Collins = Mike Brown. Stand around and watch MJ shoot. Phil brought the Triangle offense in and it allowed Micheal to get shots in better places while encouraging ball movement.
It also helped that Scottie Pippen became a starter in 1989.

As long as he keeps his eye on the real prize……

LeBron is the man!
He totally deserved this, and he has the team to back him up – and he backs them.
That’s what makes the Cavaliers the best team in the NBA, and why they are going to win the championship this year!!!
LBJ MVP!!!!

Off topic
I was afraid of facing Orlando in the ECF, but after seeing their outstanding second half against Boston, I like our chances against them.

LeBron's Game is sick!
No question that he was the MVP in the NBA this year! The best player in a Cleveland uniform that I have seen in the past 50 years! Best of all, he’s one of our own!

Yep
I thought long and hard about it and I would give LeBron the edge over Brown. Jim Brown was great and made the Browns go but, at times (but not often) he could be contained. LeBron really can’t be contained very well no matter what teams do to game plan for him. LeBron does it at both ends of the floor on offense and now, especially his great D. Jim Brown didn’t play D of course but he didn’t block well so, he could have been better . So, IMO, Jim Brown, although an awesome talent, wasn’t as great as he could have been. LeBron is all that and a bag of chips! Incredibily, he is still getting better!
