It shouldn't. That's irrelevant to the MVP discussion or it should be.

Alot of dudes are really going out of their way to try and discredit Rose from winning the MVP trophy.  Botttomline, the award belongs to and will be going to Rose this year whether you like it or not.
The only MVP award that matters is the Finals MVP...

..and Kobe is taking that after we three-peat.

LOL.

These are the numbers/facts without manipulation:

Through Saturday, Player X has averaged 22.2 points on .444 shooting with 4.6 rebounds, 8.3 assists and 1.8 steals. He has been his conference’s player of the week four times.

Player Y has averaged 24.9 points on .439 shooting with 4.2 rebounds, 7.9 assists and 1.0 steals. He has been his conference’s player of the week twice.

They are essentially the same player, in other words. Player X is more efficient and a better rebounder and thief, but Player Y scores one more basket per game. Yet Player X isn’t even considered the most valuable player on his own team. And Player Y is about to be named the most valuable player of the entire league.

Why Y?

Perception is not reality. Reality is reality. Player X (Russell Westbrook) isn’t viewed like Player Y (Derrick Rose) because winning alters all, even facts, even if one team is 53-19 and the other is 47-24. Exceed our expectations, and we’ll give you trophies you don’t deserve instead of admitting that our expectations were, um, wrong.

Stop with the Dan LeBatard, dude is weak. He is a writer from the worst professional sports city in the country, that voids his opinion.

What's so laughable about the Lakers 3peating? or is it Kobe getting the finals MVP? Is Pau gonna dominate with his black swan persona and steal it from Kobe?

LOL if you think the Mavs are gonna stop the Lakers from getting to the finals. Only hurdle are the Spurs and they're getting injured at the wrong time of the season.
