Here are my four MVP candidates: Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Kevin Garnett, Chris Paul.
I take the bet that Kobe is going to be the 1. The reason is that is several season that is carry The lakers on his shoulders and it's time for the NBA to recognize her best talent in the game since Michael Jordan.
Lebron James has the time for him not Kobe. Even if since his arrival in NBA, the King has been a constant progress, a constant alien unstoppable capable of qualify a second role team in the last NBA finals. Concerning Chris Paul, who is playing in the same league as Steve Nash and Chauncey Billups, that's amazing what "the little guy" is capable of. However he needs to prove that he can play to this level for several season.
Kevin Garnett is there to but he's surrounding by a nice cast in Allen and Pierce who is really the go to guy in the fourth quarter.
Sorry you guys from Houston but the 22 victory in a row is going to nowhere. Mc Grady have still to prove that he can pass the first round in a playoff series.
This is Kobe year and the number 24 is shinning.

FIBA 07
Exit the FIBA america tournament... no defense, no public, a fast break exibit. Even if I like show , close games are more funny. So I can't wait to see this argentina team with Ginobili, Oberto , and Scola reunited. Anyway thanks Kobe & Co for the run and see you in the Olympics.
Well here in Europe, the heavy loaded starts, and the stars Nowitzki, Parker, Gasol are already shinning. But Beyond Greece and Spain, the favorites, almost any team can reach the third place. The last ticket for an ultimate qualification before the next Olympics. So Wich team will be on the winner. I'm french so you know where my heart is. And please Wake up Boris Diaw!

Sommeren saga
Om sommeren i NBA, den proffesjonelle amerikanske basketligaen, er det vanlig at drama og business blander seg. Og når det skjer i Hollywood, spør vi oss hvem som har skrevet filmmanuset. Etter et vanlig usedvanlig år, gikk Kobe Bryant ut i den første runden av NBA's playoffs.
For en mann som lever i den daglige sammenligningen av Michael Jordan, er det nok. Kobe Bryant er den selvutnevnte nye Michael Jordan. Han var den eneste som kunne bære arven etter Jordan. Men siden 2003 er ikke lenger Kobe i dette bildet: Nå snakker mediene om Lebron James eller Dwane Wade. Og i 2005 var Dwane Wade Champion og MVP (beste spiller) i NBA-finalen. Dette året var det Lebron "King" James som var i finalen mot San Antonio Spurs.
For Kobe det er ikke god: Ikke god for business. Ikke god for sin framtidige historie innen NBA. Han vil ikke se ut som den en som kunne ikke vinne en NBA finale uten Shaquille O'Neal. I alle typer sport, eksisterer forholdet mellom ego og business.
Så Kobe Bryant lager bråk: han vil ut fra Los Angeles Lakers. Han skriver på websiden sin http://truth.kb24.com/ at han vil ut fordi han vil vinne.
Men hva er sannheten mellom Kobe og Los Angeles Lakers?
Først og fremst er det umulig for Los Angeles Lakers. Hvis Kobe forsvinner, trenger de en figur som kan selge billetter. En sportsmann som kan tiltrekke Hollywoods personligheter/kjendiser.
Unntatt Lebron James eller Dwane Wade er det ikke så mange som kan gjøre dette. LA må bare vente på de beste mulightene.
For Bryant er 'eastern conferance' et stort marked, spesielt New York, men også et svakere nivå. Adjø til Dallas, Phoenix, San Antonio, Denver. Adjø til Bruce Bowen og Raja Bell, de to beste forsvarerne mot Kobe Bryant. God dag Spike Lee, The Larry King Show... Dessuten, på grunn av en spesiell status i kontrakten hans, kan Kobe gå hvor han vil. Hva vil han? Vinne i et stor marked og gjøre svakere konkurranse mot James og Wade. Som Jordan gjorde det samme mot han selv.
Summer in NBA is a soap opera sometimes boring, other time a poor "Desperate Housewives" show. After the Garnett trade to boston, the Donaghy scandal and illegal bet in NBA, the case of Kobe Bryant is still waiting to be resolve. Remenber a few month ago Bryant give the lakers an ultimatum: build a team for the championship this year or trade him. Until now, the lakers has been really calm. C'mon guys: Kobe, Mr 82 pts in a game, mister 50 pts for breakfeast. Do something. Meanwhile Kobe is practicing with USA team and asking himself if he will never be on the same level with Michael Jordan, The Lakers seems to be more interessing by attracting the celebrities of hollywood. Unfortunately for Kobe.
And to access the club of Duncan, Jordan, Bird, Magic, Shaq, it's a long way. Kobe knows that he needs some help to shadow the new generation of Wade and Lebron as Jordan did for him. All we know, it's that we will see Kobe in gold and purple next season, and until the market of february, he will have to bring his team on his shoulders, as he did for so many years. Unless Jermaine O' Neal show his face in L.A to make him smile.
