With 54 percent of the votes Kobe Bryant was voted the best NBA player of the decade. Congratulations to Kobe on this honor it is well deserved. With all the turmoil for the Lakers in this decade Kobe continued to be the heart and soul of the team. It was quite a decade for the Lakers starting with a Championship and ending with a Championship. One still ponders how many more could have they won if Shaq was still around. I suppose that is a thought for another day.

The end results are as follows: Kobe Bryant 54% of the vote, LeBron James 17%, Shaq 13%, Tim Duncan 8%, Steve Nash 5%, and Kevin Garnett 3%.

I do believe Tim Duncan (as much as us folks in LA do not like the Spurs) you have to admit is one of the best players in the league and the Spurs would not be as good as they are without The Big Fundamental.

What happen to Shaq? Too much team moving for Shaq. You have to be on one or two teams in the decade to make a real impact. Yes Shaq was the reason the Lakers won in the beginning of the decade but after the transition to Miami, D-Wade was the reason the Heat won the Championship, Shaq was secondary. Then the transition to Phoenix where Shaq was not so effective in the fast paced Suns style, so no impact on that team. Now with Cleveland, Shaq is just a role player, but isn’t everyone to LeBron right now.

So it makes perfect sense for Kobe to win the award he scored the most points in a game of any player in the decade 81 and has improved his game with such a variation of looks for the defenders that he is close to impossible to guard..

Congrats Kobe and the Lakers!
