Paul celebrates B-day; Kobe wins MVP
On the day Chris Paul turned 23, Kobe Bryant won the NBA’s MVP award. And well deserved from my biased Laker point of view.
Paul finished second and could have won the award judging by his amazing season, unmatched point guard play and leading the Hornets – the Hornets?! – into the Western Conference semifinals.
Kobe meanwhile continues to be the best player in the game. And like all our heroes, he has his flaws.
Michael Ventre, the MSNBC columnist, has a well written, accurate view of Kobe, pros and cons.

Yes, it’s fake. Kobe admits it’s computer generated. And a marketing deal. For Nike’s Hyperdunk. But it’s making the viral rounds on the Internet. Which is exactly the marketers aim. And it’s kinda fun to look at.
