[코비 민렌드]

1. Steve Nash, Suns (10-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
13	33.3	16.8	2.6	11.8	0.2	0.2	.506	.440	.929

Last Week's Rank - 2
For the third consecutive week, The Race has a new frontrunner. While Kobe Bryant, last week's No. 1, lost consecutive games to Houston and Denver, Nash led his team on a trifecta of success, allowing the Suns to garner the second-best record in the NBA. Nash had 16 assists against Houston, bolstering his league-leading 11.8 figure, and 23 points against Toronto. Even in a loss to New Orleans Thursday night, Nash had a double-double of 13 points and 10 assists.

2. Kobe Bryant, Lakers (9-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
12	38.1	30.2	5.2	3.3	2.1	0.2	.474	.192	.861

Last Week's Rank - 1
The Race found it rather humorous when Kobe was asked about his reaction to losing to Houston and he deadpanned, "Mortified." Who knew he had such a dry sense of humor? He probably feels the same mortification about slipping in these rankings. But what's The Race to do when Kobe goes only 5-for-20 from the field and scores just 18 in the loss to Trevor Ariza's new team? Having said that, he also became only the third player in NBA history to have triple-digit 40-point games in his career, behind only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Michael Jordan. And speaking of Kareem, Kobe passed him as the Lakers' No. 2 all-time scorer and now has 24,182 career points.

3. Joe Johnson, Hawks (10-2)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
12	37.9	23.6	5.3	4.7	0.8	0.1	.464	.345	.870

Last Week's Rank - N/A
The good and the bad thing about The Race's early rankings are that players can jump in and out and up and down with alarming frequency and volatility. Such is the case for Johnson, who struggled two weeks ago to drop out of the rankings but came roaring back with stellar play and six consecutive victories that have everybody taking notice of what's happening in the A-T-L. In the week that the Hawks secured the best record in the league, Johnson averaged 28.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists.

4. Carmelo Anthony, Nuggets (8-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
11	35.6	29.9	5.8	3.0	1.6	0.4	.468	.360	.847

Last Week's Rank - 6
He brazenly said that no one defender can stop him, and sort of insinuated that no two defenders can stop him. The Toronto Raptors certainly couldn't. In a showdown with Chris Bosh –- who has been evicted from the rankings after three consecutive losses –- Carmelo hit 12 of 15 shots and scored 32 points. Please let's hope Nuggets coach George Karl is joking when he says he'd consider bringing back Allen Iverson.

5. Dirk Nowitzki, Mavericks (9-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
12	38.5	27.5	9.3	2.6	1.1	1.6	.447	.364	.902

Last Week's Rank - 10
Let's see, he hits the buzzer-beater against Milwaukee in overtime, then has a tip-in near the end of regulation against San Antonio that sends the game into overtime, then scores 11 points in overtime and a season-high 41 to avenge the loss to the Spurs a week earlier. He's at the top of his game right now. He says he sat around for four months this summer to rest his body; it looks like that regimen has worked.

6. LeBron James, Cavaliers (8-4)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
12	37.8	28.3	6.6	8.1	1.7	0.8	.516	.364	.774

Last Week's Rank - 4
A trusted confidante of The Race this week commented: "I just don't like that team. You've got Shaq in the middle. You've got Delonte West's issues. And LeBron just doesn't look comfortable to me." Granted, it would be rather nice to be "uncomfortable" and still average roughly 28 points, eight assists and six rebounds a game. But LeBron's barrage of poor play in the second half against Washington attests to the confidante's observation: Something seems a bit amiss in Cleveland. Having said that, being able to dunk left-handed like that is rather mesmerizing.

7. Dwyane Wade, Heat (7-4)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
11	38.6	27.6	4.8	5.2	2.1	1.2	.431	.267	.772

Last Week's Rank - 5
It's a difficult call with this Wade character. The Miami Heat have lost two of their past three games –- including at home to Oklahoma City –- and should have lost three in a row except for Wade's 3-pointer at the buzzer that kept New Jersey winless. Isn't that what an MVP does and is supposed to do? On the other hand, is there any way a Wade-led team should even be within two seconds of losing to the Nets? Plus, the Heat got thumped by Joe Johnson and Atlanta, a game in which Wade missed 12 of his 18 shots.

8. Paul Pierce, Celtics (9-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
12	34.5	18.4	4.8	3.9	1.2	0.3	.511	.478	.809

Last Week's Rank - 3
Pierce is admittedly the most confounding of players to rank because his numbers are never eye-popping, yet his team has one of the best records in the league. He averages only 18.4 points and 4.8 rebounds, yet he commands the most attention on the 9-3 Celtics. Having said that, Boston also lost twice last week, including a game to Indiana when Pierce scored only 15 points on 4 of 10 shooting.

9. Brandon Roy, Blazers (9-4)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
13	36.7	20.3	4.8	5.1	0.3	0.2	.448	.370	.830

Last Week's Rank - 8
No other player among The Race's Top 10 has been as topsy turvy as Roy. He scored 42 against Houston this year, but also had just two points in a win over Minnesota. How does a team's best player score just two points in 26 minutes in a blowout victory? Yet, his team recently went on a six-game win streak and he is the focal point of most defenses. He has a well-rounded game of 20.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 5.1 assists. Plus, he has the endorsement of Paul Allen, not an easy thing to get.

10. Brandon Jennings, Bucks (6-3)

G	MPG	PPG	RPG	APG	SPG	BPG	FG%	3P%	FT%
9	34.8	24.8	5.8	4.7	1.1	0.2	.477	.558	.786

Last Week's Rank - N/A
Who knows how long Jennings will be included among The Race's mainstays? But The Race voted for Kobe for MVP the year he scored 81, so some similar recognition must be devoted to Jennings' 55, which included 29 in a quarter. Can you say Sleepy Floyd? Incredibly, Jennings is 12th in the league in scoring, plus dishes five assists a game. We'll jump on the bandwagon for now but are careful not to go too crazy.

이 신인의 대단한 폭발력에 놀라지 않을 수 없네요.ㄷㄷ

루키랭킹에서는 당당히 1위를 달리고 있고 쟁쟁한 선배들이 MVP를 다투는 레이스에서도 10위에 이름을 올리고 있는 제닝스!

정말 대단합니다. 앞으로 이 선수의 팬이 될 수 밖에 없겠네요.^^

 

내쉬형님께서 팀 성적에 걸맞게 드디어 1위로 치고 올라오셨구요~

통산 100번째 40득점 이상 경기를 펼쳤고 어제는 21득점을 추가하며 레이커스 올타임 득점 2위로 올라선 코비가 2위/

리그1위인 애틀란타를 선봉에서 이끌고 있는 조존슨이 3위. 조존슨은 오랜만에 MVP레이스에서 만나네요.

(아니.. 제 기억으론 거의 못 봤던 거 같은데;; 암튼 새로운 인물들이 많이 올라올수록 NBA는 재밌을테니 반갑네요)

며칠전 턴오버 0개에 41득점을 올렸던 노비츠키 지난주 10위에서 5위까지 껑충 뛰어올랐네요^^

 

P.S> 제닝스를 보니 궁금증이 떠올랐는데 첫 해 신인왕을 차지한 동시에 MVP를 차지했던 선수가 있나요??

[BigTicket]

웨스 언셀드랑 윌트 체임벌린은 신인왕이랑 MVP를 동시에 차지한 선수들입니다
