Dwight Howard, Magic (14-4) Last Week's Rank -- 1 Some reader feedback suggesting that Howard is more of a bystander to the Magic's success than a catalyst for it got nowhere with the committee. Not after Orlando went 4-0 and its center kept racking up double-doubles, staying out of foul trouble and anchoring the middle. His 12 rebounds vs. Chicago were five more than the Bulls' starters. 2. Deron Williams, Jazz (15-5) Last Week's Rank -- 7 Incredible consistency, along with gaudy numbers, accounts for this jump. When the Jazz point guard logged 24 points, 16 assists and no turnovers against Indiana, it was only the 23rd time in NBA history anyone has topped 20 and 15 with zero giveaways. And it was the second time Williams has done it. 3. Dirk Nowitzki, Mavericks (14-4) Last Week's Rank -- 5 An MVP candidate can score just 10 points and still improve his standing if the drop in production has no ill effect on his team's outcome. He's fresh off his 12th Player of the Week award, too. The Race wants to see how its Nos. 2 and 3 fare on the same floor Friday night. 4. Chris Paul, Hornets (13-5) Last Week's Rank -- 3 Paul is consistent, too, but slips behind his rival, Williams, in The Race due to the Hornets' 2-2 week and performances that were more steady than spectacular. Not that there's anything wrong with steady. 5. Derrick Rose, Bulls (9-7) Last Week's Rank -- 4 Having asked pretty much everything of Rose so far this season, the Bulls now will be asking him to incorporate their $80 million offseason purchase, Carlos Boozer, into the team's attack. Rose also had an MVP comment this week, saying he would pass on watching LeBron James' return to Cleveland because he had Season 2 of Dexter waiting. 6. Kobe Bryant, Lakers (13-6) Last Week's Rank -- 6 The mind games have revved up in L.A. again, with Bryant allegedly throttling back to let (force?) teammates to get into the flow of games ... unless he's hoisting up scores of shots (33 vs. Indiana en route to 41 points). Regardless, the results (0-4) were not good. 7. Russell Westbrook, Thunder (13-6) Last Week's Rank -- 9 MVP candidates love them those triple-OT opportunities. Against New Jersey, 21 of Westbrook's 38 points came after regulation, including all 13 of the Thunder's points in the third overtime. Also getting 15 points and nine assists, he became only the sixth player in the last 20 years to have a game of at least 35 points, 15 rebounds and nine assists. 8. Manu Ginobili, Spurs (15-3) Last Week's Rank -- 8 Leading scorer on the team with the best record -- for a lot of readers, that merits automatic consideration in The Race. Even after a 5-of-15 shooting night in a loss to the Clippers. 9. Pau Gasol, Lakers (13-6) Last Week's Rank -- 2 Using one particular standard for MVP-ness, Gasol wouldn't have slid this far or maybe at all. And that one is, how does a team do when a star guy struggles? After all, what demonstrates value more than that? Gasol has been ground down covering for injured L.A. center Andrew Bynum and the team lost four straight. No coincidence. 10. LeBron James, Heat (12-8) Last Week's Rank -- NR Maybe it was the white uniform and the gym that had been home to so many of his highlight moments. James looked and played like the MVP winner of old in his return to Cleveland, grabbing the Cavs and The Q by the scruff of their necks with 38 points Thursday in Miami's third consecutive victory. http://goo.gl/shTpm -- Deron冲好快！Gasol掉太快！ LeBron新进榜！！！ --
