Howard had a heck of a second half of last year and appeared completely recover in March, April and May.2. Doesn't change the fact he won it and carried his team like an MVP should3. Dave Cowens and Bill Russell have won MVPs and not been on 1st team All-NBA teams. It is not a requisite to be MVP and All-NBA 1st team in the same year.

I'm just pointing out Howard's got question marks and we'd all do well in evaluating to look past the name, and that Rose is crazy overrated and deserved his MVP like Jeter deserved the gold glove.I guess to be completely fair, I should point out that the MVP Rose stole was, in fact, Dwight Howard's.
I don't think anyone disagrees that Rose's MVP was a consolation prize to all the players in the league not named Lebron James.
With the 10.5, OKC selects Eric Maynor.
