    The Warriors "lobbying" was done in the form of BAY AREA "national writers" writing "Curry for MVP stories" in national publications that gained momentum on twitter where the national media resides.

    The key to swinging the vote is to get "influencers" to buy in.

    Yep. There has been many times when I've seen a seemingly biased pro-Curry story or tweet from a national writer, and then I click on their Twitter account to see where they are from, and it will say San Francisco or Bay Area.

    You have to wonder if Curry would get the same amount of traction if the Lakers were even mildly relevant
