Rank the past 10 MVPs

[indiefan23]

Number of top 3 defensive teams that won the championship in the last 6 years : 5 ('06 Heat is the only exception)

Number of top 3 offensive teams that won the championship in the last 6 years : 0

Yeah sure, defense doesn't really win championships.

Cuz 6 years and 'top 3' is a great sample huh? Even when the Suns allowed only 2 more points per 100 possessions?

I don't have time to look it up.

Number of poor offensive teams to win in ages. 1: pistons.

Number of poor defensive teams to win. Lots more.

Over the last six years :

The champs' average rank defensively : 3.0
The champs' average rank offensively : 9.0

If you don't count the Pistons, since they inflate the numbers quite a bit :

Defensively : 3.2
Offensively : 7.2

I'm writing an article on this. Its not finished. One thing you should look into though is the difference between what 7.2 and 1 actually is. The other is finalist results. The other like I've said is 6 years is a crappy sample and weights towards defense cuz the best teams have been defensive and one year the champion Spurs as I've said did not even deserve to be there.

Also, the year the Pistons made the finals they didn't deserve to be there. The Heat were killing them till Wade hurt his shoulder and bailed Detroit out.
