    Shaquille O'Neal considers Steve Nash's MVP awards to be "tainted."

    After Miami's loss in Dallas on Thursday, O'Neal was engaged in an MVP discussion as it related to the Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki. O'Neal questioned how the media picks MVPs and said the award has been "tainted" the past two seasons. O'Neal was the runner-up for Nash's first MVP in 2005.

    O'Neal repeated "tainted" references to reporters.

    "I don't know what to say," Nash said. "I'm sorry he feels that way." [READ] http://www.azcentral.com/sports/suns...unsnb0224.html

    Meanwhile we'll see if the lazy Shaquille O'Neal can do anything with this sorry Heat team that is missing the only player that seemed to care outside of Zo.

    Regarding Nash's first MVP take a look at the Suns record the previous season with essentially the same team except for Nash. They were 29-53 and then in Nash's first season they went 62-20.

    Based on previous seasons that same period the Lakers increased wins from 50 to 56 and the Spurs seen a decline by going from 60 to 57.

    Nash's existence on the team clearly showed his value to the Suns and their ability to win.

    Unfortunately, we've been told many times on this message board that numbers don't matter.

    I like Shaq, but those were dumb statements, no doubt a result of his frustration to losing to Dallas (in the first game I've actually seen him play hard this whole season) and probably losing D-Wade for the season.

    Thanks to TMVPDPOYDOCUHEOFTHEYEAR for another misspelled rant that makes absolutely no sense. Will you please learn the correct usage of "their," "there," and "they're"????? It should be in any 3rd grade English textbook...

    You find every chance to descredit Nash, the Suns, D-Wade... pretty much anyone but Tim Duncan. Please direct this hatred toward Dirk and then we can be friends.

    Duncan and Shaq's numbers were close, but the Heat and Spurs both won 59 games in 2005. The Spurs improved by 2 wins and the Heat improved by 17 wins, even after trading away Caron Butler and Lamar Odom. IMO Shaq was robbed for MVP. Duncan would certainly have been a better choice than Nash.

    One of the few times Shaq was being phony. He usually speaks his mind which than gets him in trouble.

    What does he mean by tainted? Tainted like the Heat's championship? He should spend more time worrying about his sorry ass team who might not make the playoffs and less about the Suns.

    Yes, but the Suns went 29-53 to 62-20, and improvement of 33 wins. Nash deserved it in 2005, and if anyone disagrees, something is seriously wrong with you.
