    Who do you think is gonna get the playoffs MVP based on their play up to this point?

    I'll take D-Wade.

    Playoffs MVP? As far as I know there ain't such a thing. There is only Finals MVP and nobody knows who'll get it right now.

    If there was a playoff MVP up to this point, I would give it to Ray Allen, Ginobili, or Wade.

    It's very early for this, but I think the Heat are the only team who has not lost a game yet in the post-season. Dwayne Wade is putting up ridiculous numbers and is dominating the competition, he gets my early vote.

    Hard to go against Wade, he has really stepped up his game with Shaq not really close to 100%. That said It has been a real team effort by the Heat, their bench has really came up big. Zo is the prefect back-up for Shaquille.

    Got to say, Manu has had a great playoffs so far. Pop making a decision to start Bones and being Manu off the bench as instant offense and a spark has been a great move. Manu has averaged 21 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists a game. Hard not to mention him when the talk of best playoff players comes up.

    I'd say it's easily Dwyane Wade now... especially after his Game 4 performance vs. the Wizards. A franchise record 42 points in the playoffs. Scoring 22 points in the 3rd quarter. He is dominating in every aspect of the game in the playoffs, even without Shaq. Wade is just unreal. I'm borderline as to thinking if Lebron is better than him now...

    Ha, nice job Mr.Wade, you put it in your signature!

    Anyway, there's no arguing, it's Wade. He led his team past Washington without the most dominant player in the League along side him. He is putting up Jordesque numbers. No doubt, Mr. Marquette.

    So far it'd be Wade but he hasn't played any half-decent defenses yet. Amare is putting up huge numbers as well though.

    Hughes, Kidd and Jefferson are not "half-decent" defenders?

    I gotta go with Wade. His team is undefeated even with Shaq injured. He's putting up numbers that very few players have ever been able to achieve.

    Wade has answered the call of duty. He's really stepped up his game in the absence of Shaq and has repeatededly shattered his own career highs this playoffs. He's my MVP.

    Offcourse, it's Wade. He has proven that he can lift his team without Shaq. Nash,Amare and Allen are playing good, but up to this point Wade is my "Playoffs MVP".

    Wade or Ginobili, they both really stepped their game up in the playoffs

    You gotta go with Dwyane Wade. Not only has he done well this playoffs, he has done it with Shaq on the bench for several of their games.

    I'll go with Wade, although I'm not thrilled with the comp he's been facing...Amare is a close second, very close, but I'll give it to Wade, simply because he's performed so admirably while Shaq's been sidelined...

    I'd have to go with Nash. Look at the performances he has had the last two games against Dallas. Nash is keeping the suns playoff hopes alive.....48 points the first night...then a tripple double! Plus, this is the west we are talking about..this is Dallas we are talking about..a very good team. Nash is having his way with their defense...
