Finally NBA is about to come to its sences [sic] by changing voting for league MVP until AFTER the playoffs - well, at least starting next season. RIDIRKULOUS = MVP??
Come to its senses? Wow, I couldn't disagree with you more: all of the awards are supposed to be regular season awards. Nothing that the voters observe during the playoffs should be allowed to influence whomever they thought was derserving during of whichever award during the regular season.
It doesn't make any sense for the Podoloff trophy to be voted on after the playoffs; that's what the Russell trophy is for.
