Kevin Love looking simply sinister again all the sudden.

I don't see how, Michael Beasle was such a non-factor in games that I forgot he was even there.

Don't coaches usually get fired straight up? Why bother having a press conference?

apparently love produced 26 wins on a 17 win team :roll:

good thing he didn't get injured at the start of the season. the planet might have imploded

love was much improved and deserves accolades, but let's be honest - derrick rose was the rightful winner of this award

Why do so many people take this thing so seriously? Who cares who won. It doesn't prove anything beyond who some voters picked. Some fans from Chicago and Portland have different views on who the winner should have been. It's one of the most overrated awards, but so many put a lot of weight into this subjective accomplishment. Everyone will have have different views on how to even award the MIP (wins, years in the league, improvement in stats...different, different, different). Oh, and Rose doesn't deserve MVP :naaa:

Rose is being rewarded with an MVP trophy for his improvement.

No he wasn't. Most Valuable =/= Most Improved.

Honestly, Aldridge should have got it.
