The NBA All-Star Voting concludes on Monday January 14 2013 but the Votes are still out there for the NBA MVP Race as those Votes won't be tallied until the 82-Game Trek and then some. Whose the Top 5 Candidates for the MVP and who would you give the MO (NBA MVP Trophy...the Maurice Podoloff Trophy) Trophy to right now as we go to press.The Bluedude's Top 5 MVP Candidates in the Logo
Note: In any order....
1. Kevin Durant aka KD aka the Plastic Man of Thunder Alley Twitter: @kdTREY5
28.1 ppg 7.8 rebs 4.2 helpers OKC (27-8)
He will have Multiple Mo Trophies before its all said and done but with all those Scoring Titles and already surpassed 10K Points in a Career....its the Championship and NBA MVP that elude him. KD's All-Around Game has picked up tremendously this Season.
2. Chris Paul aka CP3 Twitter: @CP3
17 ppg 9.5 Helpers 3.6 rebs *2.6 Thefts LAC (28-8)
He has carried the Clippers and yes the New CLIPjoint to Heights only Clips Super Fan Billy Crystal had ever dreamed of. Paul's Scoring Average is deluded because of the Clips #1 Bench in the Logo. He along with King James and Rondo impact the Game in so many ways Stats do them a injustice.
3. LeBron James aka King James Twitter: @KingJames
26 ppg 8.4 rebs 6.9 helpers MIA (23-11)
What else is there to say about the King as he would tell you he hasn't played as well as he is capable but look at his Averages. He is a Walking Triple-Double waiting to Happen and he will be in the Top[ 3 Voting as he will finish the 2012-13 Campaign with a Fury.
4. Carmelo Anthony aka 'Melo aka the Bully of MSG Twitter:
29 ppg 6.1 rebs 2.6 Helpers NYK (23-12)
He was the MVP through the First Month and a Half, 2nd in the Logo in Scoring behind Kobe, and then the Knicks stop playing D. Melo started to take More Shots, throw in STAT coming back and a Nice Shapely Bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios....'Melo needs to get back on Track. Can he carry the Knicks to a 55 plus Win Season and the Eastern Conference Finals?
5. Kobe Bryant aka the Black Mamba aka KB24 Twitter: @kobebryant
30.1 ppg 5.1 rebs 4.8 Helpers LAL (15-20)
The #1 Scorer in the Logo and has been since Day 1. The Lakers Record will hurt him in the Voting as we need Dr. Phil, Dr Oz, Dr. Love, and Dr No of 007 Fame to figure out what in Wilson Oranges are the Laker sdoing. Kobe continues to defy Odds and at 33 Years of Age leading the Logo in Scoring...Take that Lob City.
As we go to Press the NBA MVP Race in this Order....
1A. CP3 Clips
1B. KD OKC
2. 'Melo NYK
3. King James MIA
4. Kobe LAL
We have Co-MVP's in Paul and Durant.....
