Who was the best NBA player of the 2008-09 season?

Answer 1

Well, trying to make a subjective question as objective as possible, one would have to look at the different statistical categories.

I would have to say Chris Paul had the most impressive statistical accomplishments. He led the league both in assists per game and in steals per game. Paul also had very impressive ratings in his offensive efficiency, shooting 50.3% from the field and 86.8% from the free-throw line, while dishing out 3.66 assists per turnover. According to Basketball-reference.com Paul ranked third in PER (Player Efficiency Rating), only after LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. According to the same website, Paul is ranked second in the league in Win Shares (an estimate of how many extra wins each player is worth to his team during a season) with 18.3, only to LeBron James' 20.3, and way before third place Dwyane Wade and his 14.7 Win Shares a season.

Other notable Point Guards in the 2008-09 season, besides Chris Paul, were: Deron Williams, Steve Nash, Chauncey Billups, Rajon Rondo and Jason Kidd.
