    Durant deserved it. Really a monster season from him!

    Harden was 5th! He really had a great season. His growth was evident but he has to keep on growing.

    Surprised Howard was not on the list. Media members still hate him, but he played at an MVP level this season and especially in the playoffs.

    I agree with the Howard comment. He really did play like the best center in the league and was huge for us this year. Actually, just the addition of him alone jumped us up to home court advantage.

    After seeing him in the playoffs, he has been a top 3 performer in the playoffs and I have no doubt in my mind that he will finish top 5 in the MVP voting next season after having another beneficial summer with Hakeem.

    Congrats to Durant. A great season and well deserved to be the MVP.

    Now KD needs to take the next step in his career and win a championship. That is the hard part.

    Is it normal for the All-NBA, All-Defensive, and All-Rookie teams to be the last awards announced?

    Lets keep it real.

    If Lin fans could vote, Lin would be the MVP.

    First off... Well deserved for KD. I'm really happy for him.

    I also echo the sentiments of those before me about James....fantastic. He'll be higher in coming years.

    Chris Paul should ALWAYS be ahead of Blake Griffin....idiotic.

    Aldridge should have gotten more votes.

    Great for Gogi!

    But, at the bottom is a guy that is turning into a great PG. Mike Conley will be in the top 10 for years.

    I can't believe people even thought he would. He's not that type of guy, honestly probably the most loyal player in the NBA.
