I just hope Kobe doesn't win it...the winner of that ing award hasn't won the le in almost 10 yrs
With that logic, who on the Chicago Bulls should finish top 3 in the MVP since it can't be Rose with him missing like 20 games?

To the above post...
I know it's crazy hey, if i remember correctly the last MVP whose team went on to win the championship was Duncan in 2003, before that was shaq's mvp year with the Lakers, before that was jordan in 98. Dunno if i've forgotten any other recent ones.
MVP's going on to win the championship doesn't happen very often. Kinda surprising.
NBA.COM Current Rankings
1. LeBron
2. Durant
3. Kobe
4. Love
5. Westbrook
6. Wade
7. Parker
8. Paul
9. Rondo
10. Howard
LeBron and Durant at the top, no surprise there. Kinda surprised to see them rank Kobe number 3. Kevin Love at 4 for his nasty stats is fair enough but never a chance of winning due to his teams total suckage. Westbrook and Wade at 5 and 6 is surprising to me, didnt think they'd be considered top 10 material. Followed by Parker, then Paul Rondo and Howard to round out the 10.
It's a 2 horse race definately, nba.com's list just needs a little bit of juggling around.
What do you guys think of it?
I'm pulling for Durant and better yet it would be great if Durant and Bron got Co-MVP...because then based on my supers ious logic...that would me neither would win the le paving the way for Kobe's 6th![]()
LMAO, nice logic Mamba, props. The curse of the MVP not winning the championship is into its 10th year
That's an argument against Derrick Rose from being in the MVP discussion and therefore indirectly an argument in favor of another player (Lebron included) from winning MVP.
It's not surprising.
Any team that plays ty enough to allow one person to stand out like a sore thumb likely doesn't have what it takes to get win the Finals. With the talent in the league, winning the MVP requires a stand out performance, and it has to almost be supported by some downtime where the team suffers because of it. Teams like the Spurs that win 10 in a row with 2 or 3 fairly big players on the bench will likely never see an MVP award.
Bron bron, is the best balla in the planet.
If the Thunder finish with the best record..... you give it to Durant
3 of the Top30 players in the sport resulting in the 4th best record & your going to reward that?
It's actually very simple. It's the MVP awardy, not Player of the Year award
The MVP rewards high win/total improvements & ''carrying of the team''. That doesn't equate well in the playoffs
If Parker was white, he will win the MVP this year without question. The way Parker been carrying the Spurs this year is impressive.
Would you say Kobe or Bynum has been more integral to the Lakers' relative success this year? Serious question.
That's a hard question to answer because Bynum wouldn't be as effective without the double teams Kobe gets for no reason. Bynum can't handle double teams half the time
The Spurs without Parker would skull the Heat without Lebron.
