With the 2007-2008 NBA season winding down, the MVP is going to go to either Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, or Lebron James. Anybody else, and the MVP system would be corrupt.

 

But what about the other players?

 

Other NBA players can still accumulate some points in the MVP race also.  

 

“A panel of 127 sportswriters and broadcasters throughout the United States and Canada vote[s] for this prestigious award. Players [are] awarded 10 points for each first-place vote, seven points for each second-place vote, five for third, three for fourth and one for each fifth-place vote received.” – NBA.com

 

All there needs to be is one corrupt voter to make one random NBA player feel like part of the MVP race. Just look at the players who received MVP votes for the 2004-2005 NBA season.
