The NBA only had four games on the schedule tonight. Dwyane Wade continued his spectacular play as he scored 33 points and dished out 10 assists in a win over the Trail Blazers. Wade continues to play very well this season and is helping lead the Heat to the top spot in the league. In second was the play of Kevin Durant who scored 38 points and grabbed 8 rebounds in a win over the Magic. Durant proved again tonight that he can play well against good teams. If Durant continues to score and lead his team to wins, the Thunder will be very tough to beat. And in first was the dominant play of LeBron James who scored 38 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, and dished out 6 assists in a win over the Trail Blazers. Tonight all three top performers proved that they all can be considered for this seasons MVP.
