Lebron "Kevin Durant most consistent basketball player as far as the MVP this year,"

Lebron James was asked whether Kevin Durant was the frontrunner for MVP last night by the media after the Heat played the Memphis Grizzlies.

"I would say he's the most consistent basketball player as far as the MVP this year, man," James said. "He's put up some great numbers."

"I think KD has had one heck of a season," "And, you know, if he's rewarded with the MVP, it would be great. It would be awesome for him, for his family. He's played MVP-type basketball. I don't really get caught up into what people say. At the end of the day, they have their own votes and they go from there."

Lebron the reigning MVP is averaging 26.9 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.4 assits while Durant has been averaging 32 points 7.6 rebounds and 5.6 assists which includes a 41 game record breaking streak of scoring over 25 points in a row .
