On the Deseret News website yesterday Tim Buckley reported Carlos Boozer commenting on this year’s MVP race. He gave his vote to Kobe Bryant for the MVP this season:

“For what (Paul) does for that team, and the way he affects it, I think
(he’s a deserving candidate),” Boozer said. “I think Kobe’s the
favorite. If I had to give it to somebody I’d give it to Kobe, or Kevin
Garnett because of what he did for Boston.

Carlos Boozer giving his respects to the best player in the game. Who’s opinion are you going to trust? A two time NBA all-star and counting or some sports journalist you could really care less about? If the players alone chose the MVP, I think we could bet that it would be Kobe Bryant. But since the media have influence in the debate, it’s leaning towards Chris Paul at this point.
