LeBron James proposes an intriguing NBA change

"I did think about how the NFL does Offensive Player of the Year and MVP," LeBron said. "I thought that could possibly be something in our league. You give an Offensive Player of the Year and an MVP. It changes things."

That's an interesting idea, but there's already a scoring title, so perhaps it would be a little redundant. Of course, being a well-rounded offensive player isn't just about scoring, but with no objective criterion, it would be just like voting for MVP all over again.

Should the award be given to the player responsible for the most points scored, regardless of whether he scored them or gave out the assists? What if that player doesn't even make the playoffs?

The same happens with the MVP award. Some believe it should go to the best player in the league, but sometimes, the best player in the league isn't the most valuable to his team. Other times, the most valuable player can't lead the team to the playoffs, so should it go to the best player on the team with the best record?

The league has added more awards in recent years, so perhaps it will listen to James' pitch. Whether such a move would reduce controversy or just create more remains to be seen.
