haha that press conference was funny

...kobe you deserve it...brushoff the haters...gregbutler20 is just jeaLousbecause their best guy was too busy drinking and driving instead of focusing on the series

 

[noblekane]

awesome. that was one of the best mvp press conferences since Mj's last mvp...

Kobe won by a landslide and that was good...

Hoepfully people will go back to the old way and NOT award a point guard for what he is already SUPPOSED to do...

[sohi 23]

Steve Nash:

4 4th place votes and 5 5th place votes


His 2 MVP winning years:
04-05: 15.5 points, 11.5 assists
05-06: 18.8 points, 10.5 assists
07-08: 16.9 points, 11.1 assists

LOL, I still can't believe Steve Nash won the MVP.
Paul's #s kill Nash's # and he didn't even win when he played MUCH better D.


IMO, The media loves point guards

 

[la all day]

who's gonna report him for that 'rapist' comment? yes snitch

Kobe

SMH at KG getting 14 more first place votes than lebron

 

[kidskillz858]

The press conference was

at times.

But man some of the people there like Jerry West

The man who brought him in for a private workout and came away saying he had never seen or worked out another better player before.When Kobe was only 17 yearsold

The logo is truely a basketball GENIUS.

What the media loves are winners.

Kobe had a great year no doubt, but this year, wasn't really different from what he did last year, statswise.

The difference is, the Lakers were a powerhouse. #1 seed.

Couple that with the fact that Kobe has had a ton of better seasons in which he probably could've gotten the award (but his team wasn't winning) andthe fact that he's never won one period, played a big role on why Kobe blew out CP3 this year.

I don't really have a problem with Nash winning his first one.

You have to keep in mind, that even Mark Cuban, a big Nash fan himself, couldn't justify throwing the kind of money Phoenix was throwing him, because ofhis age concerns.

That first year Nash was on the Suns, he quarterbacked that whole run and gun offense, and as a result, he led the team to like first place out West orwhatever it was. Maybe it was #2, I forget. But, the Suns came outta nowhere that first year Nash was there. MVP award well deserved.

The second one though, I question.

If it wasn't for Kobe and the Lakers having such a great year though (Lakers not finishing in the top 3) , it woulda been CP3 in a blowout.

Kobe looked extremely happy.
