Sports Daily: Who Deserves the NBA MVP Edition

[RaychelSnr]

When you have a brand to protect and that brand is founded in masculine dominance and ego, it takes a lot to even hint that someone else is more deserving than you when it comes to the top awards in your sport.

But when The King -- and reigning MVP -- was asked who deserves this year's award the most, he may not have shouted it from the rooftops, but even LeBron knows that Kevin Durant has been 'more consistent' throughout this NBA season.

According to ESPN:
Quote:

"I would say he's [Durant] the most consistent basketball player as far as the MVP this year, man," James said. "He's put up some great numbers."

Sound Off: Who is this year's NBA MVP?

Let the arguing and advanced stats begin .

No arguments here, my opinion is of the mvp is that Lebron could win it every year but since people would get bored of that i'll give it to Durant. The MVP order goes as followed, Durant, LeBron, Blake, Noah in my opinion.

I think pretty much everyone has acknowledged Durant deserves the MVP for the past couple months now.

The only way he won't win it is if the majority of the voters decide to vote for "best player in the league" which I could never see happening, that's not how it's supposed to work.

I don't think however that if somehow another player won that we will look back on it saying "so and so stole one of Durant's MVPs" the way we look back and say Barkley and Malone stole 2 from Jordan, or Nash stole one from Kobe, etc.

No stats needed. Kevin Durant should be the MVP.

I like your order, but I don't really feel it's "boredom" that would keep LeBron from winning it. I think Durant has earned it this year, and I feel like Noah and Blake both earned themselves at least consideration.. If those aren't the top 4 I will be extremely shocked.
