-Played majority of the year with a torn tendon on finger
-Andrew Bynum missed majority of the season
-Trevor Ariza missed majority of the season
-Pau Gasol missed about 2 weeks
-Has played every single game of this season
-Lakers were in first place when Bynum went down
-Lakers are currently in first place
-The best two way player
-and 4 of the last 5 years, has led the team in assists
So for those that want to vote on the basis of whoever has the best record in the west, then Kobe should win (Jamele Hill). and for those that want to vote that Lebron is the MVP because he has the best individual stat this season, then blatantly didn't follow that formula the last two years. And those that want to vote (Charles Barkley) the best player on the best team should vote for Boston. You're going to have ass faces like Chad ford and John Hollinger vote Kobe 3rd and 4th but it's nice to know that majority of the sportswriters have already spoken.
