Title: Report: Kobe Bryant wins first MVP award
Post by: Mo Z. Dizzle on May 02, 2008, 09:07:23 PM
LOS ANGELES (AP)—Kobe Bryant has won the NBA’s MVP award for the first time, the Los Angeles Times reported on its Web site Friday night, citing anonymous sources familiar with the outcome of voting by media members.

The newspaper reported that commissioner David Stern will be in Los Angeles next week to present the trophy to Bryant.

“We have not been told anything by the league,” Lakers spokesman John Black told The Associated Press.

Bryant, who entered the season as the league’s two-time defending scoring champion, had third in the MVP voting twice—after the 2002-03 campaign, when he averaged 30 points for the first time, and again last season, when Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki won the award.

3rds time the charm. I thought the 81 season would win it, and last season he carried an injuried rattled team with Kwame Brown as the starting center to the playoffs. The only difference is this year he has help, so now people can't deny him, until next year when they'll say, he had too much help. But whatever, it's about damn time. Congrads to Kobe, the best player in the game for the last at least 3 years.

I thought him winning the MVP would make me feel better, but im still bitter that he doesn't have the 03 and 06 MVP trophys in his house.

throwing up deep ass 3's when u got players open , is not mvp material. tryin to always split two defenders when there is easily ppl open is not mvp material. get where eye am going with this. but no doubt he has changed a great deal

there were many times in the past when Kobe passed to open shooters and his team-mates didn't deliver...therefore he had no other option but to split defenders and take deep ass 3's. if Kobe had this year's team, he would have never gone for 81.... he wouldn't need to.

LOL Kobe wasn't even the best player on his own team until Shaq left...

you can argue one of Nash's MVP awards belongs to kobe.  i don't buy that arguement but you can argue it sure.

Near the end of Shaq's run with the Lakers, I feel that Kobe surpassed him as the best player on the team....
