does he get it for every finals appearance?
does bosh have a case in 2011?
or AD in 2020?
would you consider giving it to him in 2009 for a losing effort?

He would have 11.
Reggie Jackson is amazing and a killer in the clutch that's all.

9-10
Bosh in 2011 and AD in 2020 would have had a chance
In 2020 AD had more points per game (31 vs 27) than LBJ with about the same efficiency but LBJ had more rebounds and assists, so it could just go either way
In 2011, Bosh would have had a chance, but the fact that LBJ had been clutch in several games in this series, I think he would have won it
The rest are no brainer, I think Dwight would have won it in 2009, especially with his monster game 6

I'm going to say 9. LeBron would have won in 2007, 2012-2018, and 2020. I would say 2011 would have gone to Dwyane Wade, and I'll admit that was the worst playoff run LeBron had. He was like the 3rd best player on that team during the playoff run, and was the reason why his team didn't win a Championship that year.

The 2011 ECFMVP trophy would have gone to Dwayne Wade who averaged 19/6/2 on a putrid 41% shooting? Are you not getting your years messed up?
I'd guess he'd win '07, '11-18 and maybe '20, with '20 being the least likely. So either 9 or 10.

LeBron was great in 2011 up until the Finals. He single handedly beat the Bulls.

He wins it for all 9 ECF wins, 2020 would be a tossup between him & AD, he might win it just off being the much bigger name. And while he should win for 2009, I doubt they give it to a player from a losing team.
