Now I'm sorry, but Kobe is dead last in this race.
All other 3 could make an argument to be the mvp, but let's face facts, Kobe isn't the mvp. I understand, alot of you guys are youngsters, hate Michael Jordan for some reason, didn't get to shoot enough when you were in league basketball, or hell, shot too much. For whatever reason, you're riding Kobe's d HARD, and you're not right this time. Yes, he's a great scorer. Yes, he's clutch. But he's not the MVP.
Arguments:
KG - He's the best player on the best team in the country. Could he score in the 20 bracket? Yes. But he doesn't need, too. Boston went from being 0-82 last year to being on pace to win 60+ this year. Yes, Paul and Ray Ray are a big part of that, but none like KG.
Result : KG can argue he's the, now read this slowly for those of you who failed 5th grade, MOST VALUABLE PLAYER on his team, which is best in the league.
LeBron - Well, simply put, he carries his team, with less talent than Kobe's Lakers. Their record isn't as good, but they're not 10 games below 500 either. Also, LeBron leads Kobe by 2 in all 3 big stats.
Result : LeBron stat line is better than Kobe's. LeBron is more important to his team than Kobe. Players want to play with LeBron because he makes everyone around him better. Kobe NEEDS players to play with him, otherwise the Lakers struggle.
CP3 - Probably the MOST VALUABLE guy to any team in the league, he single handedly took a team from the gutter to the top floor in one year. Like Garnett did with Boston, however, CP3 doesn't have the perennial all-stars on his team like Garnett. The Hornets are on pace to compete for the #1 seed in the West.
Result : If the award is for the most valuable player in the league, CP3's only shortcoming of Garnett is the fact that Garnett is the leader of the league's best team. His stat line is incredible and he's sparked a fire behind a team that NO ONE thought could be in the position they're in now.

Kobe is the Most Valuable Player in the NBA the last 3 years and i dont care what anyone says. The last 2 years the Lakers would have been worse then the celtics were last year without Kobe. He was plain and simply robbed both of the last 2 years because of the hatred he has gotten stemming from his Colorado court case. I would be willing to bet a HUGE majority of the League would agree with me also.
how was he robbed the past 2 years? When his team had the 7th seed and less than 50 wins.... You guys know how the voters base so much of their vote onwinning..... Based on the criteria he did not deserve it in 06 or 07.
man, this double standard some of you guys have on him winning the MVP is laughable. If anything, he deserved it in 03. Not in 06, not in 07. But he definitelyshould win it this year...

I think It's because Kobe didn't get the MVP and the Cavs are in the East. The West is just a much more competetive conference than the West.It seems almost a joke that a team 10 games under .500 is on the 8th place. The Cavs are still in 4th place, when I guess we can assume that if the Lakers 2years ago would probably be number 2 or even number 1 in the East.Originally Posted by THockey66

So why does everybody claim Kobe "deserved" the MVP the last 2 years but now Lebron doesnt this year?

KG is not even the clearcut MVP of his TEAM. the Celtics did just fine without him. Paul Pierce has a stronger argument for MVP of the Celtics.
now if you he isn't even the clearcut MVP of his team, how can he be ahead of Kobe, Lebron, and Paul in the MVP race?
KGs name has to be mentioned because he's the biggest name on the best team, but he's in fourth place right now.

KG lead a team to the WCF....

Kobe deserved MVP because he was shattering records....and no one expected LA to be a playoff team playin in the West. LeBron isn't as great as Kobewas...and LBJ has/had better players around him. and Clearly there are more people doing more then LeBron

Get out of here with that garbage.
There is not one other person in the NBA putting up a more complete stat line or meaning more to his team, except for Chris Paul and/or maybe Kobe.
STATS DON'T MEAN A THING....If stats did don't u think Kobe would have won MVP 2 years ago.
I just notice i said that incorrectly...Stats isn't the only thing that goes in to decision
It's where your team is standings wise
How much u contribute to their success
Now Kobe has a presence...of course they would rather leave Fisher, Farmer, Odom, Walton, and Turiaf open...This is what is makin Kobe a better passer. Histeam is knocking down shots too.
Same goes for CP....thats why i believe there should just be a Co-MVP season because those two alone are doing it big for their teams in a TOUGHER conference.
LeBron isn't the MVP this year...maybe next year if he stays in the gym in the offseason...sure he's puttin up great numbers but how the Ws lookin?Where are the Cavs in a weaker conference?
