Stephen Curry: 'I Got to Be' MVP

During an appearance on the "Rex Chapman Show," Warriors point guard Stephen Curry was asked if he should be named the MVP this year.

"I got to be," Curry said. "I probably won't get it, but whatever."

The full interview will be uploaded to YouTube on Thursday, but Curry's comments light fuel to a fire on a contentious debate in the NBA. The MVP award is typically earned by one of the best players in the NBA who's also on one of the best teams in the league.

Although Curry is undoubtedly one of the best players in the world, his team may not even make the playoffs.
