Latest headlines in the NBA this day, Allen Iverson of the Detroit Pistons in his statement, he said that he rather retire than be reserve next season.

After missing his 16 games with Detroit due to back injury, Allen Iverson is back playing a couple of weeks ago and in his last three games, coach Michael Curry give AI limited minutes on the court and used him coming off the bench. On Tuesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers he only played 18 minutes and Wednesday with the loss with the New Jersey Nets 111-98, where he only played 17 minutes on that game. He added also that he can't be effective in this way(that Michael used him off the bench and giving limited minutes) and its tough for him mentally and phisically playing a new role.

On Wednesday game against the Nets, Iverson sat on the bench with his shirt off and his shin wrapped with ice early in the second half. The veteran guard didn't put his jersey back on until he went back to the floor late in the third quarter. After that game he didn't talk about his playing minutes as he only scores 4 points in 1 of 8 from the field.

This year the veteran all star guard is averaging 17.4 points with the Pistons, not the usual numbers for him in his career and previous seasons.

The end of the NBA regular season is near, and I'm very excited of that because that's the time that the NBA board will announce if who is the 2008-2009 season MVP, and eager to know if who will win the most prestigious solo title between the rivals of Lebron James, Kobe Bryant and Dwayne Wade.

This three is the most popular and most marketable players in the world of basketball at this time. They are also in the top ten in scoring, assist and steals in this season, Kobe won this honor last year while Lebron and Dwayne haven't yet receive an individual award like this.

Statistically Wade has the edges 27 over Bryant 30 and James 24. Through Monday's game he still leads the NBA in scoring (29.9) assist(7.5) steals(2.3) blocks(1.4). This season only Dwayne Wade is the player with 100 blocks and steals, this great season came after the summer Olympics in Biejing China where they capture the gold medal.

James who carry his team to the best record in the NBA this season 61-13, with an impressive record in their home 35-1, Lebron this season leads the NBA in most triple doubles made with a total of seven. He is also the second leading scorer behind Wade with (28.4) assist(7.4) rebounds(7.7) steals(1.3) blocks(1.2). His unselfish plays every game creating the team's offense, and maybe the best defense he is playing in his career. James who can play and defend all of the five positions is that because of his completed package of size, strenght and quickness.

This year in his last statements Kobe said that he is not thinking of winning the MVP this year, and just focuse on winning the championship this year. Bryant averaging 27 points and five assist, helped the Lakers in their 4-0 record againts the Cavaliers and the Celtics.

But I have that very strong feeling that this year's NBA Most Valuable Player will be my main man Dwayne Wade, and he deserve it if ever he is the winner of this prestigious award, agree? Laker's and Cav's fans.
