Griffin
Bosh

I definitely don't understand the Love over Griffin nominations. Love has almost from the beginning had trouble about him eventually bolting in free agency that doesn't exist with Griffin, he has been significantly worse than Griffin this season, he's a tiny bit older and more experienced, he's signed for a shorter period, and Griffin is much more marketable. I've liked Love a lot in the seasons prior to this one, but he's on my short list for Most Regressed Player so far.

Not sure I understand your assumed obvious reasoning here?

Kyrie is world's upon suns better then Rubio, not coming off a torn ACL and just as marketable.

Cheap, young, potential NBA stars -- trade value for the next 6 years of their first two contracts.

I don't think I'll agree on the marketing thing until I see Kyrie on a bigger stage than Europe and Olympics. Rubio's already got Adidas, Gillette and McDonald's (since 2009) as sponsors - that at least matches Irving - but Rubio appeal is worldwide.

Also, I think Rose's injury should have him a bit lower on this list. Really uncertain how he's going to come back. Same reason Howard falls on this list.
