Kevin Durant, a True MVP



Maybe you've seen this or heard about it, but I think it's too unique and heartfelt not to double-check. Kevin Durant, basketball superstar of the Oklahoma City Thunder, won the MVP award for the 2014 season last week, and gave an acceptance speech to match, displaying a humility and grace as effortless as one of his cross-over dribbles or step-back three-pointers. He credited each of his teammates by name, and saved his most poignant thoughts for his mother, who raised him and his brother in abject poverty as a single mom in Washington DC.

Well done KD - you've shown what it takes to be an MVP, and more importantly, a man.
