Okay, first off I would like to say what everyone here already knows. BSPN is A JOKE. They did the Kings/Lakers recap and they acted like Kobe owned Ron. Comments like "no problems there", I would've loved it if they had covered his misses(since he had a lot of them).
Second, I would like to say that the MVP doesn't mean as much as it did a while ago anymore. Earlier in this season we heard how Chauncey Billups could be MVP. Well he's not even the most important player on that team, Ben Wallace. I personally feel that Ron Artest deserves to be considered for MVP. He won't get it though because you have to be one of the "superstars" in the league and play in a big market or on a team that everyone loves. IMO the fact that he took a 13th place team in THE WEST to 7th says a lot. This team was playing awful before he got here, now they're playing great. Unfortunately he won't even be considered for MVP or DPOY(again) because he's not someone loved by the league-Kobe, Nowitzki, Billups, etc. The only player I think who deserves it instead of Ron is Nash. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like MVP stands for Most Valuable Player anymore-it seems like it stands for most popular player.
