2002: 4th-5th (behind Shaq, Duncan, Kobe, debatable with KG)
2003: 6th (behind Duncan, KG, Kobe, McGrady, Shaq)
2004: 5th (behind KG, Duncan, Shaq, Kobe)

I'm lower on his earlier years and higher on his late career (valuable seasons up to 2016 IMO)

2001: 9 - 11th (Shaq, Duncan, KG, Kobe, Carter, T-Mac, Iverson, Allen, joint with Payton and Kidd)
2002: 8th (Duncan, Shaq, KG, Kobe, T-Mac, Kidd, Iverson)
2003: injured so IDK, probably around 6th behind the usual suspects
2004: 6th (KG, Duncan, Shaq, T-Mac, Kobe)
2005: 4 - 6th (Duncan, KG, Nash, joint with Wade and Shaq)
2006: 4 - 5th (Kobe, KG, Nash, joint with Wade)
2007: 3rd (Nash, Duncan)
2008: 4 - 7th (KG, Kobe, James, joint with Nash, CP3 and Duncan)
2009: 4 - 5th (James, Wade, Kobe, joint with Paul)
2010: 3 - 4th (James, Wade, joint with Kobe)
2011: 1 - 2nd (joint with James)
2012: 4th (James, Durant and Paul)
2013: 15ish
2014: 15ish
2015: 20ish
2016: 30ish
This place is a cesspool of mindless ineptitude, mental decrepitude, and intellectual lassitude. I refuse to be sucked any deeper into this whirlpool of groupthink sewage. My opinions have been expressed. I'm going to go take a shower.
