The Boston Celtics are the best team in the league!
Bold statement I know, but it is hard to bet against a team that has only lost 6 games in 4 months. Pretty impressive considering the talented teams in the NBA this year. Kevin Garnett is definitely the reason for that with his rebounds, inside presence and scoring alongside Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.

At this point, the Celtics is leading the pack but this cannot be used as a gauge as to their true strength. Yes, they are a force to be reckoned with but their true test will be in the playoffs. So far, they haven't shown any and yes Garnett is MVP material.

I would have to say Kevin Garnett, being MVP doesn't always mean about stats. You have to be a very consistent player and you have to be a leader of your team, both which Kevin Garnett does, added to the fact that the Boston Celtics has the best record in the league.

Given the value of a player to his team, then Chris Paul and Kobe are also to be considered. But it is the impact that he does that will be given more weight in my opinion. Much like Steve Nash has to his team.

I don't feel the Garnett is deserving of MVP, but he is the cog for the Celtics for sure. I honestly think he doesn't care either, especially if the Celtics win the title. Team MVP, I would agree, NBA MVP, I don't think he is the strongest candidate.

Even though I am pro Kobe when this question is asked, you now have to considered LeBron James who got a triple-double tonight in a win and still said he had a bad game! WOW! Triple-double, bad game? I think this race is now down to Kobe and King James.
