LeBron may still win this MVP thing,...it'll be hard and yes Wade will take votes, but he is balling and they are winning.  Isn't that what it's all about?  Derrick Rose should definitely be higher because without him, they might blow up the Bulls franchise.  How can Luol make your MVP list and not be one of the Top 50 players?
