MVP & MVP?

John Lopez from the Houston Chronicle has an interesting take on last night's for the ages game between the Aggies and the 'Sips, focusing on the two best players in the Big 12: Now do you know what I mean about Durant & Law IV?
Law is not nearly the talent that Durant is, of course. He doesn't have the numbers or overwhelming presence on every possession that Durant has. He is not the absolute physical marvel. And until he final moments of a game, no team will build their entire defensive strategy around stopping him. Case in point: The triangle-and-two defense Aggies coach Billy Gillispie used against Durant.

Durant is the best player in America.

But Law is more important. He IS the most valuable player in the league.

Good stuff. Too bad both of these guys will be gone to the pros next season.
