    Due to the Suns offense, Nash was THE MOST VALUABLE in terms of what he meant to his team. U couple that with the Suns success I think he was deserving. With that said, I don't think his case was as clear as an MJ or Bird MVP kind of year. But before Steph Curry, Nash was the best blend of shooting, passing, and handles of all time. It was so fun to watch that i'm sure he earned cool points with the MVP voters.

    Nash was the clear-cut 05 MVP, tbh. Duncan and Dirk had better seasons than Shaq that year anyway.

    06 is iffy. That was clearly Dirk's award, imo.

    Funny you are using Dirk's first round failure as an example of a bad MVP selection seeing as how Kobe would've gotten kicked out of the first round had he won MVP in 06. Not to mention MVP is a regular season award.

    Kobe had a good year in 06, similar to MJ in 87 lets say. But like MJ, his team record was mediocre and wasnt given the MVP.

    Tmac put up just as impressive stats in 03 and didnt win MVP, why should Kobe? Has the MVP ever been given to a player on a team less than 50 wins?

    The Lakers were 18-9 in games when Kobe scored 40 or more, and just 27-26 otherwise. A .500 team with 24 games to go, Kobe put the Lakers on his back and led them to a 16-8 run to make the playoffs. During this run, he went for 40 or more points 12 times.

    Amare missed 79 games in 06, yet PHX win total went from 62 in 05 to 54 in 06.

    Pretty impressive considered Amare avg. 26 and 9 in 05. That's a tall order to make up for.

    Nah. They barely won game 1 going 49 of 50 from the line. They lost the next two with Dirk.

    Because there's players in the league who could avg. 35ppg if they took 27 FGA per game.

    I said his 05 MVP was more than deserved (62 wins).

    I think Dirk did more with his help in 06 than Nash did with his though. Even without Amare, the Suns weren't 6 wins worse than that pretty terrible Mavs team, imho.
