    Spurs center repeats as MVP of league

    Duncan becomes the first player since Michael Jordan in 1991 and 1992 to win the league's most coveted individual award in consecutive seasons.

    Duncan led the Spurs to the league's best record, 60-22, while averaging 23.3 points and career highs in rebounds (12.9), assists (3.9) and blocks (2.92).

    And some pretty impressive company:

    Duncan is the seventh player to win the award in consecutive seasons, joining Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Moses Malone, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell.

    Both Duncan and David Robinson are about the only two reasons for me to watch the NBA anymore. Both have strong moral character.

    But then again, Bill Bennet wrote the "Book of Virtues," (though I'm still a bit agnostic on his scandal as I don't see it as that big of a deal).

    They are both rather impressive guys. They sure beat the Jailblazers :)
