According to a league source, LeBron James will be named the NBA Most Valuable Player this afternoon. James has chosen to have the announcement at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron. All his Cavs teammates are expected to be there as well as representatives from Kia, which will give him a new car as part of the honor. He will be the first Cav to win the honor in history and the second youngest ever to win the award behind Wes Unseld in 1969. James averaged 28.4 points, 7.2 rebounds and 7.6 assists this season, his sixth in the NBA. Two weeks ago James finished second in Defensive Player of the Year voting and an upgrade in that area this season plus the Cavs franchise-record 66 wins were compeling to the 123 media voters. The award will be officially announced later today and he will be honored before the Cavs play the Hawks in Game 1 on the Eastern Conference Semifinals on Tuesday. Traditionally, NBA Commissioner David Stern is on hand to present the Maurice Podoloff Trophy in front the fans. Source The Plain Dealer.

Yes, I'm so happy that my favorite player in NBA won the MVP award....I'm so proud of you idol... You can always control the game....
Its about darn Time. Now its time Lebron shuts Kobe up and put that ring on his finger. Kobe hasn't got a ring since Lebron been in the League and I don't see it stoppin this year. Lets Go CaVs!
Great Vid... just one fatal flaw... that theme music in the beginning should be for one man and one man only... now and forever... AND NOW FROM NORTH CAROLINA - #23 ... Seriously, I love Bron but I'm a purist... don't ever take MJ's theme! :???: LOVED the music in the second half of the vid!!! :mrgreen:
They forgot the one where LBJ dunked on Odom after crossing Kobe at the Key
M-V-P!
what are the names of the songs in the video?
Kobe who? Dwayne what? LeBron James is the 2008-2009 MVP!! It's LeBron's era. He should have been last year's MVP and the other year but critics don't believe in him and now he prove it.
