Derrick Rose became the youngest NBA player in history to receive the MVP award. It is well deserved as Rose lead the Bulls to their No.1 playoff seed and average 25 points, 7.7 assists, with 4.1 rebounds to boot. He is also the first Bulls player since Michael Jordan in 1998 to receive the award:
If you told me at the beginning of the year Michael Vick would be talked about in the same sentence as Tom Brady for MVP I would have said eh probably not. Sure enough, that is what is happening. You look at what Vick has meant to the Eagles success this year and also how Tom Brady has carried the Patriots even with the departure of Randy Moss. To me it can be a toss up but I would have to put the edge on Vick for comeback player of the year but not MVP. He has served his penance and I respect him for turning the corner in his life to being a better person. Brady is without a doubt the MVP. The team solely relies upon him running the offense week in and week out. If he has a bad game, the entire team is effected by it. For that reason I believe he will get the MVP nod.
Vick Highlights:
Joey Votto was named the National League MVP by a landslide. His MVP selection stops the streak of Albert Pujols at 2 years in a row:
LeBron James received the NBA’s MVP Award for the second year in a row. I think he’s going to be a special player just my opinion.
Dwayne Wade keeps his MVP All-Star momentum going leading the Heat over the 76ers. Caron Butler makes his debut for the Mavericks but Kevin Durant played spoiler going for 25 pts to lead the Thunder over the Mavs. The point champ, Paul Pierce, seals the game for Celtics from beyond the arc.
