Actually, it would be MUCH worse than that in my opinion.
As much of a sham that 97 MVP was(blatant case of voters fatigue), atleast Malone put up legendary type numbers himself. Malone put 27/10-4 on 55% shooting. And the Jazz had the best record in the West.
Rose is avg 24-8-4 on 44% shooting. In no way should those numbers constitute as an MVP season. That's a good year, not the "MVP". LeBron is statistically superior across the board.
Seriously Malone AND Barkley deserved those MVP they put up numbers better than Jordan on teams with better records, that usually means MVP.
