What do they have in common you ask?? Well, they both received MVP awards yesterday during NBA All-Star events!  Scottie Pippen couldn't quite do enough to win the award away from Bieber, even helping his team win the actual game while Bieber's team lost.  The voters must have Bieber Fever...yep, I went there....

John Wall took the award over DeMarcus Cousins in the Rookie Challenge Game.  I couldn't help but think a little Tyler Hansbrough would have slowed down Cousins, but I am not sure his play (you know, hard work, tough defense...and not necessarily pretty play) is exactly what the fans are looking for....

A lot on the table today for the All-Star game, check out the schedule here.  After the jump, check out the links of the day...
