I can't believe Steve freakin' Nash won MVP. I want to see the Suns go down in flames in the playoffs. If that happens, 15 years from now people will look back and wonder WTF the voters were thinking.
Regardless of what we all think, Nash has won the MVP this year.
Congratulations to Steve Nash, as only the 4th point guard to ever win the award. (Cousy, Robertson, Magic)

Why do you hate the Suns so much?
I don't. I just think it's a joke that Nash won MVP. He's basically the same player that he was with the Mavs. And if he goes down in flames like he did with Dallas, it'll be the same player that wasn't named an All-Star becoming an MVP.
i can MAYBE see if he averaged like 26 ppg and 13 apg how that might be enough to win the MVP but at 16 and 11 with the D he plays, and the team he has
he doesnt deserve
If they don't go down in flames, what then?
Was he to blame for the failures of Dallas?
It is inappropriate to resort to name-calling.
You have every right to disagree with me.
I didn't say Manu SHOULD be MVP, I was listing off a whole host of players who are more valuable to their teams and better all-around players than Steve Nash.
Steve Nash is an excellent PG and has helped the Suns tremendously. But Suns could have made it this far with Tony Parker, Mike Bibby, or Chauncey Billups running the point. the only reason for their lack of success last year was Amare being out - which makes him a more likely candidate from the Suns to be MVP. And he was also one of the people I listed.
If they win the championship, then his MVP will be validated.
Yes. Whether it was Tony Parker, Avery Johnson or Terry Porter, Nash was worked over by the Spurs' point guard in every series he played against San Antonio.Was he to blame for the failures of Dallas?
I think this makes Arenas an excellent candidate for MIP.
Yeah, perhaps Tim and Shaq were both taken for granted as MVPs. God knows they've won them before.
Nash getting it doesn't bother me much. He's a great point guard, who lead the league in assists during the Regular season AND was 6th in Assists/turnover ratio (Antonio Daniels was 2nd!)
Nash drives the PHX Suns offense, and is pretty much single-handedly responsible for getting them where they are. Who wouldn't want Nash on their team?
Nash instead of Tim or Shaq, no, of course not. But name another PG you'd rather have. I think it's great that a PG gets the award, especially one as skilled as Nash.
Now, will the Suns go far in the Playoffs? No, but the MVP is not about the Playoffs. It's about who was most valuable to their team during the regular season.
You want Tim to get MVP? Then believe that the Spurs will win the Championship and he shall receive a much greater MVP honor than what Nash has!
You don't know that. Nash has been a big influence on a young team.
Suns probably make the playoffs with one of those other guys, but having watched them all year there is no way they go 62-20 and get the number 1 seed. The same is probably true of other Suns players as well but Nash got attention as the new addition.
How far they go in the playoffs is yet to be determined.
You guys have a Suns forum? COOL!

nash this year has played well
it is for this season not seasons
if you do not give it to nash or shaq who do you give it to?
ai? james I THINK NOT
duncan? that would be a big joke
kg bigger joke
ray allen? I think not
bottom line is if you suck at d i mean really blow like nash does
you have to play twice as good as a guy whos just solid at d to even be considered for MVP, its HALF the game and at 16 and 11 i just dont see it
he's the one who totally blew assignment on steve kerrs last three when spurs beat mavs in game 6 03 wcf, and let kerr shoot us to that win
Hard to argue that.
True dat. Greg Anthony pointed out that Shaq has one the MVP only one time in his career. I don't typically give the guy any respect, but come on.
damn I hope Parker gets the chance (and does) school Nash in the playoffs...
and i'm sure nash will school parker back
That would pretty much be a first.
Definitely the worst MVP by far.
Give the guy an MVP even though he plays with 2 guys averaging 20 or more and 4 guys averaging over 15pts a game.
Interesting.
Dwayne Wade was much more worthy of an MVP.
The only other person he's playing with averaging over 15 is Shaq. Everyone else averages 12pts and under.
Wade was in the top 10 of more statistical catagories.
Wade had a higher efficiency rating.
Wade had better stats.
Wade missed less games.
And the ONLY reason why Nash won the MVP is because the Suns got 1st seed by default because of Duncan's injury.
Do you think they would've given Nash the MVP if they came in 2nd?
LOL!
Every MVP is a shoe in...I guess this means Steve Nash is a Hall of Famer...doesn't that sound a bit funny?
It wasn't Shaq, so I'm happy
LOL, love your HHH imitation - screen name "The Game" and "you are that damn good" right?they are that damn good.
Anyway, why all the hate for Nash?? especially from timvp
Someone mentioned that he won 3 less games with Dallas and no one talked about MVP last year.. well thats because Dallas was already GOOD last year. When he went to Phoenix, there was oh so much potential, but no one had/could tap it. They won, what, 29 games the previous year, and they were confused with each other on the court - no chemistry. PHX needed someone to come and lead them on the court to maximize their potential, discipline them, and guide them. Nash was the perfect fit, and he really brought out the best in them. If Nash wasn't there, they would be a dysfunctional group
Sure, he isn't the best defensive player. However, for leading them and being so valuable to them, he more than deserves the MVP.
Great a guy who basically hates America get's it. Sure he can play. But there is enough grease in his hair to power Willy Nelson's bio diesel for miles.
