You were supposed to be a part of this from the beginning. But it didn't happen. The Knicks were busy trying to find their way without a full training camp to lean on and there were new bodies added to the mix, making for a choppier transition than expected. You're here now, though, sitting pretty on the KIA Race to the MVP Ladder in the final two weeks of the competition. If Anthony's January or February or March looked anything like his April, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Kobe Bryant might have had some headband-wearing company at the top of this list. Anthony has been operating on another level since Mike Woodson took over as coach, following the departure of Mike D'Antoni. The 32.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 51 percent shooting from the floor and 46 percent from beyond the 3-point line is more what Knicks fans expected when the organization traded for Anthony last season. Now that the Knicks have secured a playoff berth, Anthony is guaranteed an opportunity to continue his April (points) showers for at least a couple of weeks more. It's too bad for Anthony that we're shutting this competition down next week, though. Still, his scoring kick that has propelled the Knicks into the playoffs has also re-established him as one of the league's most difficult players to deal with. And if he finishes in the playoffs the way he has finished this regular season, Anthony will have vaulted himself back into the MVP conversation when this kicks back up to start the 2012-13 season.
