From Kevin Bradley, Sports Book Manager at Bovada.lv:
The foot injury sustained by OKC’s Kevin Durant has made LeBron James the odds on favorite at 5/6 to win the NBA MVP award. Oklahoma City will still be up there as front runners to win the championship, but losing Durant for the beginning of the season will surely hinder their chances, going from 5/1 to 7/1 and making the Spurs the clear favorites out of the West at 7/2. The Thunder pre-injury had the highest posted win total of 57.5 and it has since dropped down to 52.5.
