Harp isn't good enough to start.

Also Farmars and Kleizas numbers are as follows:
Farmar
9.7 points and 2.7 assists in 20 minutes
Kleiza
11.1 points and 4 rebounds in 23 minutes

Not starter's numbers, for sure, but then again... this isn't an award for starters.

Nice numbers but if you dont want Manu then a guy like Jason Terry or Leandro Barbosa should win, not Kleiza or Farmar.

Terry is a starter. I guess Barbosa could deserve it, but getting it two years in a row doesn't work for me.
Again, I think I have some personal criteria for the award that doesn't really exist. That's the problem with the MVP award. The qualifications are unclear, so everyone creates their own and no two person's are alike.
