If Kobe had played all year with the desire to get his teammates involved like he is in this series they would have won 50+ games and the mvp wouldn't have been a question.
I think Kobe is a phenomenal player, but after watching him all year and this series I'm starting to lose the respect I had for him, he whines on absolutely every call. Even on plays where there is no contact whatsoever, he still has to run down the court staring the ref down as if he should have gotten a call. MJ used to do his lobbying, but Kobe is in a whole different stratosphere. So I'm officially naming Kobe, MVW, most valuable whiner.

It is true though. Nash can't play D. Only thing that he can do better than Kobe is assist and shoot free throws(a little better). I would rather take a great overall player with clutch. I like Nash though. I used to like watching Dallas when Nash was there, now I don't like to watch Dallas at all. He's a great offensive player and fun to watch. He's a step down from Kobe though IMO. I like AI too, but like Nash he is mainly just offense. I agree about the whining though, I wish he wouldn't do that(too many T's this year), but he is just too competitive to shut up.
