There are many great players in the NBA this season. At the beginning of the season Paul George was on fire and his team, the Pacers had a great record. Many people thought he was going to win MVP but then LeBron James and Kevin Durant stepped up. Kevin Durant put together the best stretch of basketball I have ever seen while Russell Westbrook was injured. He put up 35.0 points 7.5 rebounds, and 6.3 assists while shooting 52.7 percent from the field. He looked like the clear MVP during that stretch but then he cooled down and LeBron heated up. He just had his career high for points with 61 but it was against the Bobcats. They are one of the leagues worst teams so the 61 point performance was not that impressive. When it comes down to it the MVP race goes back in forth between players throughout the season (over the past few seasons LeBron and KD) and it is hard to say who will win until the end of the season. Being a life long SuperSonic/ Thunder fan I would like to see Durant win it this year and I think he will.
