Let me be clear: I don't think MKP is bad. I think he's one of the best players, he might even actually be the best. However, I think it's too early to be declaring him the best, just like I think Artosis was overhyping DRG when he called him the best over and over again.
MKP has excellent mechanics and decision making, but he tends to win games with gimmicky and tricky strategies that abuse the fact that terran is hard to scout and properly respond to. He can win straight up macro games, but when he loses it's pretty clear that he deserved the loss. There are better players in specific matchups, like Alive's TvT.
I think MKP 'might' be the best overall, but I think it's too early to declare him as such and announce it like it's a fact. If he wins a GSL soon, I'll agree that he is.
I agree with you, right now there is no "best" player right now. MVP was the best player for periods in 2011, but right now there isn't a clear #1.

Not only that, both games he move-commanded his sentries into spine crawlers, losing them all
I'd hate to say nerves, but what else could it be?

I bet you $5 that Stephano will reach at least 100 supply in one of the games against MKP.
no
What about Stephano takes a game?
That's actually pretty tempting. I would take this in the heartbeat, but I am young and don't really have any great means of transferring money. I hope someone else steps up though.
