As the 2014 NBA season comes to a near close, we have many big players in the mix for the league's most prestigious award. the most valuable player (MVP) award, with this year showing great consistency from Miami's Lebron James who has set his sights on for a "three-peat" MVP title, earning the last two in a row, and three out of the last four awards. Furthermore, LA Clippers star Blake Griffin was in the running among st other notable players in the league such as Tim Duncan and James Harden. However all efforts by league's star players were overshadowed by the OKC all-star small forward, Kevin Durant, this season in the National Basketball Association we had seen a whole new ball game to Kevin Durant, and as a result he has been awarded with the NBA 2014 MvP award for the regular season.
  •  Scored at least 25 points in 41 consecutive games (3rd longest streak in NBA history)
  •  Scored over 40 in 14 different matches
  • Average of 32 points per game
  • Average of 7.4 rebounds, 5.5 assists per game
  • 50% shooting from the field
OKC Thunder point guard Russel Westbrook shared a few words about his team mate, "He's been the most constent guy all season long......he's done a great job of leading us to where we are now. He's basically put himself in front of everybody else in the league and shown that he's the best player in the world", Westbrook said at the end of the season.
