Bryant has been terrific and deserving, surpassing career averages in field goal and three-point shooting, steals, assists and rebounds. He's taking fewer shots than at any time in his previous six seasons but is second in the league in scoring (to James), averaging 28.2 points per game. His rebounding (6.0) is his best in five years (6.9 in 2002-03), his field-goal shooting (46 percent) is his highest in six years (47 in 2001-02), steals (2.0) second most in his career (2.2 in '02-03).
At 29, a year older than when Jordan won his first championship with the Bulls, Bryant is right there, the best player in the NBA and the player who overwhelmingly should be voted MVP.

Needless to say, I didn't pen this.
The MVP BS continues...
