Kobe Bryant: MVP belongs to Dirk this year
Nowitzki is Kobe's MVP
Amid talk of whether Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade or he should win the NBA's Most Valuable Player award this season, Kobe Bryant put the controversy to rest Thursday afternoon.
"Give it to Dirk," the Lakers guard said. "I don't even want it.
"I just don't play for that. That's completely out of my mind."
Bryant said he's more interested in adding a fourth championship trophy to his mantel than collecting his first MVP award.
"I don't play for numbers," he said. "I don't play for anything else but to win.
"But that being said, I think Dirk is having a phenomenal year."
