The fact that you don't even have Kobe in the top three is outragous. I don't get how you guys can overlook the amount of time that both Bynum and even Gasol have missed. Kobe kept his team afloat. The Hornets and Celtics have been healthy all year. The Lakers wouldn't have overcame those injuries and still ended up seeded first in the most competitive conference race in decades if Kobe didn't kick it up a notch when his best options fell to injury.

Bryon Scott of the Hornets wins coach of the year. Congrats to him as he deserves it.
Also, Hedo Turkulou of the Magic wins most improved player.

No question. I have always liked Byron Scott, even dating back to his days coaching New Jersey. He was underrated then as most of the credit went to his top assistant, Eddie Jordan. With the job Scott has done this season, he's finally getting the respect he deserves. The Hornets are more of his team than the Nets were. I don't see how Lawrence Frank got so much credit after Scott's departure when he never even got the team past the Conference Semis. Scott had them in the Finals in back to back years. Anyway, I'm glad to see him arrive as an elite-level coach. In terms of most improved player, while Hedo Turkoglu is very deserving, everyone always seems to overlook Danny Granger. Granger has gone from an anonymous bench player to a superstar. His team is holding him back from the credit he deserves.
