KoBe is my MVP! ! !

NBA season games are still going on and the rumors about who will be the MVP is still going on. Steve Nash from the Phoenix Suns and Dirk Nowitzki from Dallas Mavericks were the top two contenders of the MVP award. From the start of the season, they brought their team to victories. The Suns lead by Nash with a 52-16 win –lost record while the Mavs lead by Nowitzki with a 57-11 win-lost record. These two teams are already insured of a playoff spot already, but these two players are not yet sure if they will really come out as MVP. There is one player who will try to still that award from them and it is no other than the scoring leader in the NBA right now, wearing jersey number 24 from the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe Bryant.
His team, the lakers may not be as progressive as Steve’s and Dirk’s suns and mavs but his team has a big chance to make it to the playoffs. The lakers, with a 39-32 win-lost record right now are also a good contender for that championship especially with Kobe’s performance. Kobe who has just broke the record of Michael Jordan being the second player to score at least 50 points or more in four straight games is really a great candidate for MVP. His record was second in the whole NBA history, next to Wilt Chamberlain’s seven straight games of scoring 50 points or more. Kobe has also set a record of being the second player to score the most points in a ball game, scoring 85 points against the Toronto Raptors last year, also next to Wilt Chamberlain’s record of 100 point in a game.
He may not be as fast moving compared to the 6-foot-3, 191-pound and the reigning MVP point guard of the suns, Steve Nash, who is averaging 19.1 points and league best 11.9 assist per game, or smaller than Dallas’ superstar who is averaging 25.1 points and 9.5 rebounds per game, Dirk Nowitzki, but rest assured, no one in the NBA right now plays better than this 6-foot-6, and 220 lbs. shooting guard. He is averaging 30.1 points per ball game, 5.8 rebounds and 5.5 assists this season.
Kobe is definitely a superstar that could surpass Michael Jordan. If there would be a player in the NBA right now whom I want to be the MVP, there could be no other player but him.
