I'm willing to bet the guy who did it voted based on what the award is suppose to be for (the Most VALUABLE Player) rather than what too many people think it is/should be for (The Best Talent in the League).

If you go by the former, Melo is your vote. If you go by the latter, then it's a toss-up between LeBron and Durant.

I've always said MVP should be changed to MOP for all sports. The most valuable player almost never wins it.

The facts disagree. Lebron is the best player. The best player provides the most value.

Lebron's team suffers at a bigger rate than Melo's when they are both off the court.

Furthermore, the Knicks are better than the Heat when both stars are on the bench. This isn't based on my opinion, but based on the actual numbers when both are off the court.

You've been registered for 2 days and a quick look through your post history shows you are riding a strong anti-Lebron bias.

Play the word game of valuable/best if you want but a) "valuable" isn't how the mvp has traditional been determined in the NBA just one aspect of it & b) put Lebron on any team with a winning record this year and he would be the most valuable bc that team would win the title.

3 days posting & already a ridiculous post count & the biggest case of trolling just for the sake of trolling I've seen in quite some time. Alter be damned, it might've been fun to last longer than however many days you get before being banned.

Its the Most Valuable Player of the league, not the most valuable player to his team.
