Cuttino was a top candidate according to NBA.com ...........................team MVP.....................
And rightfully so. But if you look, Cuttino Mobley was though and he should have been a candidate more so than Steve I believe with 4 good games this week and shooting 50% as well as leading the team in scoring right now. (1 point over steve )
Sorry Mobley! I should have named you instead of Stevie. Whatever! But I brought this up since there was a thread about Stevie pushing for POW. Anyway, respect will come when we have more on the win column.
Strange...Kobe Bryant from the West and Ray Allen for the East, and then "Other Eastern Candidates" and other "Western Candidates"? I guess they're going to do a player of the week from each conference this season.
I agree, leebigez. This is a team that didn't make the playoffs last year. The most important thing to me is stacking up the W's. Steve is definitely a big part of winning the 3 games this week, but indiuvidual honors aren't a top priority right now. If I thought this team would only win 20 games this year, then I might be looking for some sort of silver lining (like POW). But I see much bigger things for this team, so I don't care if a Rocket doesn't get mentioned all year as long as they all play as a team and keep getting the Wins.
