The Ball Don't Lie

Alright, this one is simple if you put Lebron's team in the West w/ Kobe's. Lebron's team (35-26) would be behind Denver.
Here are the West standings:
1.Spurs (42-17)
2.Lakers (43-18) <- Lakers were 7th seed last year.
3.New Orleans (41-19)
4.Utah (40-22)
5.Houston (40-20)
6.Phoenix (40-21)
7.Dallas (39-22)
8.Golden State (37-23)
9.Denver (36-24)
10. Cavs (35-26) <- would not make the playoffs if they were in the West (We can agree their lost column would be even greater if they were in the West)

Last time I checked, a player on a bad team, no matter how good his stats, will not get an MVP (Kobe stats:35/5/5, team record: 45-37 season, finished 7th seed lost to Steve Nash (54-28 team record) in 05-06.
Lebron is good, no doubt, but the media is overhyping him as if they do not want Kobe as MVP. I hope the voters do not contradict themselves this year, and the MVP finally will go to Kobe Bryant. So now do you still think Lebron deserves MVP over Kobe?
 
I don't think you'll ever put it to rest...unless they meet each other in the finals, maybe then...they are alike in many ways but yet so different. They both are mid-size players who have all around skills, but yet Lebron is much more of a brute and Kobe is the finesse type.
