The weekend tore through da club like K. Smooth tore through the Mavs' defense on Friday night. It left us all hungover, burping up Italian meats and asking why we put up with our 40 hour a week cube jobs.
That all being said, this isn't about us, our shitty jobs or our bad attitudes. This is about someone who found the key to averting the life of a desk jockey: grow to be almost 7 feet tall and have a freakish 7'5" wing span. I give you the NBA's best player, Kevin Durant. Last night, he became the first player in NBA history to make 20+ free throws in back to back games. He is now 41/42 from the line over his last 2 and an insane 91% from the charity stripe this season. In those last two, he has combined to score 89 points. For those of you that are math challenged, that's almost 45ppg. 45!
I'd say with recent injuries, the MVP race has now fallen squarely on Durant vs. LeBron. If I were a betting man, my money would be on the protagonist to unseat the villain for MVP and for NBA supremacy.

K. Smooth shows the world why he will win the MVP this year
Holy shit. What a game. In all honesty, this was probably one of the uglier 50 point games of all time. K. Smooth shot a mortal 13/31 from the field including a dismal stretch in the 4th quarter where he missed 8 straight shots to let the Mavs back in the game. He made up for it in OT though, hitting 2 huge 3's and a ridiculous step back, fade away that would make Kobe proud. While K. Smooth was human from the floor, he was an astonishing 21/21 from the line and 5/9 from 3 to finish with 52 points. He also threw in 9 boards, an assist and 2 steals in 50 minutes.
What I think is amazing about this game and this performance is the way that Smooth continued to fight. Most players in the league would defer to the #2 when going through a cold stretch like he hit in the 4th, but he kept playing his game and rewarded OKC with a gritty, OT win in Dallas.
