There's lots of leniency, but what type-in do you want that's not allowed? Hakeem also works.

It seems that up until the last decade or so, the Finals MVP was always given to the best player on the team. Recently, players like Chauncey Billups, Tony Parker, Kawhi Leonard, and Andre Iguodala have won the award despite not being the best players on their respective teams.

um... Leonard was far and away the best player on the Spurs in 2014.

Nope, that Spurs team was more of a team. Kawhi was definitely not by far the best player on that Spurs team.

Had to do some research going into this.

Surprised about 72’ finals MVP Wilt Chamberlain. Thought it was West at first and had to think of the West Chamberlain Baylor or Goodrich big 3

With the passing years, the details fade, but I know at the time I felt that Bob McAdoo absolutely should've been Finals MVP for the Lakers.

BTW, QM, the label for the year "1982" is shown as "1980".

DonTheLightmaster is correct. It should be 1982, not 1980 for the 1980 that is above 1981 in the quiz.
