Yep I know what you mean, though from this perspective you have to change the name of the award.... I mean of course record of the team has his influence in the choice but it wouldn't have such importance. I mean if Kobe (or another top player) played for the Bobcats and qualified them for the playoffs, we wouldn't give him the award coz of they would have only 42-45 wins...... that's BS , you feel me ?. Look at before the season , so few so called NBA experts said the Lakers will make the playoffs, what happened ?.... we all know the story. From my mind Kobe has already succeeded in making the postseason with an unexperienced squad, of course others have to be credited for that, but as a leader, Kobe should get it, if not just renamed it "the MVP of the top 5 teams". We aren't a top 5 team but Kobe is the best player in the NBA right now, replace Kobe with Nash and we would be far from the playoffs race...... Anyway, there has been a lot of BS with this award lately , the most ignorant shit was Duncan instead of Kidd in 02..... :grumpy: :grumpy:

I agree with you. It's just that in the last 15-20 years they've never honoured the leader of a less-than-50-wins team. That's why we should not get our hopes high.

I don't think many people really have their hopes high...We know how the NBA is. Kobe is obviously the most valuable player in the league, the players have said it, the coaches have said it...Media is a different thing, I think they rather see Chris Paul win it than Kobe...Oh well, there's always next year...PeACe
wcsoldier:
^^^ Yep I know that, I haven't hopes at all when it comes to that award. Medias are BS for the most part, their hate towards Kobe is so blatant.... when I read sth like "Kobe ain't in my 4-5 first choice", I had even a beef with a writer who posts NBA articles on one of the most visited french sport website when he dissed the hell out of Kobe after his 81 pt game. The article was some shit like "Kobe is just a scorer, ain't on Nowitzki or Garnett level....." I respect opinions but I can't stand hate or a very weak knowledge of sth
Vegasmac25:
I hate it when MF talk smack about KOBE knowing that he is the best player in the NBA.
Stone Cold is Bout It, Bout It:
The Suns got their ass whiped these last 2 games. I think the Lakers do have a shot at beating them in the playoffs. :-\
rik:
The Lakers are going to get passed the first round no matter who they play. I gurantee that.
