You can't pound for pound a ridiculous comment and think that it makes it any less crazy.

History is not on their side. This is the first time anybody has ever considered either player as MVP candidates. To be a legit MVP candidate you gotta be consistantly great for at least 1 or 2 seasons. It's not even clear if they are the best players at their positions.

And in my personal opinion the fact that key players on Rose's team are injured actually hurts his chances. Look at the makeup of his team. Who can make plays besides him? LeBron, Dirk, and Dwight Howard are clearly the best players on their perspective teams surrounded by players that can actually score points and make plays.

I have LeBron, Dirk, and Howard as my top 3. D. Rose would be a better candidate next season if he could actually keep up this type of play.

I already mentioned Steve Nash. Find me another player since 1980 to win the MVP out of the blue. The 04-05 Nash is the only example. Which is why Rose's chances are slim.

The people who are voting for the MVP pick their candidate relatively early in the season, and it takes a lot to alter their opinion for the rest of the season. And it's really tough for a player who wasn't considered as elite the previous season to be picked by one of these voters as the MVP early in the season.

It's clearly Rose. You CAN'T give it to Lebron because already has 2 "gimmies"... very few get 3... and NOBODY has had a Wade-caliber-output on their team and gotten it, aside from Shaq (I think). And today-Wade > 2000 era-Kobe.


And every other player has less of a claim than Lebron..
