as far as kobe,if phil jackson wouldnt of put a leash on him,he would of won it..kobe not shaq started the laker turn around in december...he sparked all them wins..when they put the cuffs on him,his numbers dropped...so it was obvious he wasnt going to win it,,that leaves garnett who had less to work with from the get,,,,duncan is soft,and kobe and the lakers are gonna prove it,when we eliminate the spurs and thier star mvp and send them fishing....
