MVP is for the the player most valuable to his team, not the best player in the league.

one in the same

Why the hell would a LA voter give a shite what a Chicago or New York guy has to say about anything?

NYC is big enough to sway things, plus they'll just start giving melo all the pub that rose got (and more) and it will sway people

most voters of such awards are complete idiots who barely know what PER is

Explains why Steve Nash won over Kobe right? BTW, Miami is the 4th largest Urban area in the US.

it's not close to that ranking in terms of media market. it's in the 12-20 range (Depending on your source)

nash had the support of the media. kobe was a villain in those times, and the LA media didn't push him b/c many hated him (for making the lakers trade shaq) at that time.

this is why lebron didn't win it 2 years ago. the media hated him the same way that they hated kobe

Maybe if they had a decent SF in his place they'd squeak in with 40 wins,

chris copeland has actually had some big games when melo had to sit. and it's a 4. melo basically plays the 4 now

not even close and the fact you believe that tells me what I need to know about you.

Which explains why they work in the industry and you don't, right?

Not what you originally said. Stop trying to move the goalposts. Also, you didn't address the Nash-Kobe case. Hell there have been other "small" market guys to win it over the years: Garnett, Robinson, and Malone come to mind.

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: No they didn't. Fans did. The media ate it up.

He's had 3 "big" games (games with over 20 points). Two of those were w/o Melo and they lost both. They won the game with Melo.

He had to play the 4 because the starting 4 was out. He only starts at the 4 but he's still a 3. Hell if anything that's more of a case for him because he has to play out of position.
