First Laker to win the award since Magic.
Joins childhood buddy LO in winning two of the NBA's most significant individual awards of the season.
Obviously a great turn around from where he was 7 years ago. But when we signed him 2 years ago nobody was sure how he'd fit in, sure he hasn't played as consistently as we'd all like but I give him credit for keeping his head straight during his time in LA with far less attention needed from PJ and Kobe than we first expected.
