1: Dwyane Wade (especially if he steps it up like the playoffs ALL season) 2: LeBron James 3: Kobe Bryant 4: Gilbert Arenas 5: JJ Redick (just joking about this, but i HAD to put him there)
i hope lebron gets especially when he got a tripledoube in his first playoff game and he will be much better than he was last year even though he was amazing last year and sorry nash fans but i hope he doesn't get it again when i heard he got it this year i was so disappointed
Why does anyone not put either Tmac or Yao on this list. If the Rocket do turn the season into something good and get a high playoff seed. Don't be shocked if they get the award.

Lebron is one more year away from an MVP award IMO. The Mavs will get the first seed in the West, and the hardware will be handed to their power forward. Well, thats how i hope it will go...

Well since all the obvious guys have been named I’m going to throw wild card out there, Chris Paul? With the moves the Hornets have made this season, they are in position to make the playoffs next season in my opinion possible with a top five seed. Should that happen while Paul is putting up lets say about 18-20 points, 6-7 rebounds, 8-10 assists there is a good possibility he could win the award. Just throwing the idea out there for you guys this thread was getting a bit repetitive.

Last season,the MVP award should have been awarded to Kobe Bryant, but his team's record kept him from winning. IMO, the MVP winner next season should be Dwayne Wade. The guy showed that he is a phenomenal player in the NBA Finals, winning the Finals MVP, and I can only see him getting better next season. Plus, the Heat will most likely be one of the top teams in the East, and the NBA
If Kobe doesn't get I can only see LeBron (or a big) getting it due to his talent. The NBA Finals shouldn't carry over into consideration for an MVP. The slate is wiped clean next year.

The door is wide open. Kobe, Lebron, Wade, I'd even say Melo. There are just so many. I dont want to see NASH win it again though...
I honestly agree with chris paul. he is great choice. But im going to go with kobe. hes got something to prove and hes got more options now with vlade.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Shiver:</div><div class="quote_post">I doubt that Chris Paul will average that many rebounds.</div> He averaged 5.1 RPG this past season. Why can't he improve that average by 1 to 6 RPG
