The lock reason, evidence for why Derrick Rose will win the MVP this year.
Chris Bosh and Juwan Howard said Rose should win MVP. Nobody in the history of the NBA with an MVP candidate on their team has ever said straight up that someone else (on a rival conference team no less) should be the MVP. At least, the typical response goes something like "oh yeah, 'x' is playing well, he should definitely be in consideration up there."
If James' own teammates do not believe he is the MVP then why should everyone else.
