Wade: Kobe didn’t deserve MVP

[iceman02]

While the two might be battling for the MVP this season (along with LeBron obviously), Dwyane Wade says Kobe shouldn’t have won it last year. Says Wade, “Not taking away nothing from Kobe — I thought he was unbelievable … (But) I thought Chris Paul was the most valuable player.”

Wow, iceman has all the makings a professional sportswriter with his over sensationalized headline misleading the readers.

Whether they want to or not.

he is the most popular player in the league.

It's funny.
This is why I miss MJ.

Someone says that about MJ in his prime.
What does MJ do?
Drop 50 on them everytime the teams meet.
He'd also pull defense on them limiting them to under 20.
And after that, they would feel as though they just been playing street ball all night.

I liked Kobe better when he was angry and becoming hard. All this place nice and smile stuff is just crap.

I would love to see him rip off that band aid, while dropping 40 on the Heat.

he is the most popular player in the league.

In reference to my post, think Colorado, 2003.

Is he? I've always thought Lebron was more popular; everybody was already talking about where he would sign last year and teams were supposedly already getting budgets ready.

Didn't Lebron say he would consider playing in the European league for $50 Million a year?

EDIT:

Yep, here's the article.

Wouldn't you?

If I was LeBron, I'd give up basketball entirely for $50 million a year.

[free2131]

Honestly, it depends. If I was already set for life, and knew that my next contract would net me around $20-$25 mill a year, then I'd probably stick with what was familiar to me, like the game itself as well as the culture.

Plus, for him, he has a family to think about whether he would want to uproot them.

On the other hand, If I was in the same position that Childress was in when he signed with Greece, I probably would take it.

Yeah, that way LeBron could hear how he isn't Jordan on the other side of the lake also. lol
