And the MVP Award Goes to…

Kobe Bryant (1,105 points) has just snatched up the Maurice Podoloff Trophy for the first time in his 12-year career. Chris Paul (889 points) did his thing this year, but Kobe truly deserved this one. He displayed his durability all season long. Now while I agree with the MVP choice, I respectfully disagree on a bunch of the other awards. If I had a say, here’s how my votes would play out:

Most Improved Player: Hedo Turkoglu (Magic)
Sixth Man Award: Manu Ginobili (Spurs)
Defensive Player of the Year: Shane Battier (Rockets)
Coach of the Year: Byron Scott (Hornets)
Most Valuable Player: Kobe Bryant (Lakers)
Rookie of the Year: Al Horford (Hawks)
Trade of the Year: Gasol to Lakers
You’re Cool But Your Free Throw Sucks Award: Luis Scola

    I dunno about Turkoglu getting most improved, he was pretty dope when he was with the Kings, just overshadowed by Stojakovic and the fact that he was a bench player instead of a starter. That being said, as a starter, he was finally able to have a breakthrough year.

    about damn time my boy kobe gets his trophy for MVP. could have easily been his 2nd or even 3rd.
    and lol i do sense the biased that “Fivefold” spotted, but i retort it cus battier really has lock down D. i thought he should have got it also but finishing 3rd was a surprise. i hate to see when he locks down kobe cus i can do that.
    p.s im also feelin that “Trade of the year” thing, but i think it was the trade of the century so far sepecially when ALL the lakers gave up was kwame [no eplination] and a rookie. look at the trade tallent wise. [wow i could go on and one about this]

    Shane really was the top defensive player of the year. It’s not even worth arguing, imo.
