From
where I sit it looks like the NBA should doing their awards differently...
A
richly deserved MVP for Kevin Durant. And a beautiful speech. Too
bad it was all done in Edmond, OK. I'm sure it's a great city,
according to the Wikipedia entry it was number 1 on CNBC's 'Top 10
Perfect Suburbs' in 2011. Sounds lovely. Still not the best place
to crown the league MVP. The NHL has been doing it for years, the
NFL is now on board. The NBA should be doing these awards in a
special presentation at the end of the season. The NHL heads to
Vegas, the NFL is holding it in the Super Bowl city the night before
the big game. Imagine a powerful speech in prime time TV from New
York or LA, not from the winner's practice facility. Durant's
emotion was palpable. Too bad most of us only saw it on SportsCentre.
At
least that's how I see it, and I sit in the cheap seats.
