Of those choices, I'd say Chauncey. Of course, there's another huge case to be made for Steve Nash.
Steve Nash
Tim Duncan
Chauncy Billups
Dirk Nowitzki
Shaquille O'Neal
I'm sure there's been discussion but I don't feel like looking for it, and I just want to see how many votes for who instead of a bunch of crap reasoning.![]()
Of those choices, I'd say Chauncey. Of course, there's another huge case to be made for Steve Nash.
IMO
1A: Nash
1B: Billups
3: Dirk
4: Brand
I personally think that what Nash has done without Amare, and w/ a bunch of different/new players is quite impressive, and makes him most deserving...............But I still voted for Chauncey!!!!![]()
I think it's a very close battle between Dirk and Nash, and I'm actually leaning towards Dirk lately.
where is the WGAF option??
The "WGAF about MVP" option is probably not in the "who will win MVP" thread.
Chauncy Billups or Steve Nash seem to be the most deserving IMO
I'd say definitely Dirk. He has carried that team to a 44-11 record.
If the Mavs manage to win the division...I'd say Dirk.
If the Lakers managed to stay above .500 and get into the playoffs...I'd say Kobe.
Who deserves it the most?
1) Billups
2) Nash
Kobe.
Nash. Billups deserves mention but the other he does have other 4 starters who are very big to this team as well. Take any of the other 4 guys out of this lineup and wed have over 20 losses right now. Nash deserves it the most because of how he has led that team without Amare and with new starters.
I think it should be Steve Nash, but I obviously hope it's Billups. My head says Nash, but my head says Billups.
I don't really understand votes for Billups.
The Pistons are the best *team* in the league but they're only a couple of games ahead of the Mavs, who basically live or die based on the play of Dirk Nowitzki. It was one thing when the Pistons were by far the most dominant team in the league, but other teams have caught up with them.
I think if you have two equal teams and one of those teams is carried more by one individual than the other, that player should be favored in discussions of value.
That must be confusing.My head says Nash, but my head says Billups.
Yeah, I guess it would be.
Dirk's having a good year but I wouldn't rate him any better than having an even chance of getting more votes than Billups. As far as Detroit being more of a team I'd mention that Dallas has 7 players averaging at least 9+ points while the Pistons have only 4 so I don't see the case for Dirk carrying the team.
Well Billups has three teammates averaging at least 14 points while Dirk only has two.It's about more than points. The Mavs spread their minutes around much more than the Pistons do.
Two heads, whoa!
Should have read "my head says Nash but my "other" head says Billups?
Whoops. Must have been that line of coke I just finished. I meant my head said Nash, my heart says Billups. Sorry bout that.
Minutes spread around more = more team to work with = less chance of carrying the team? (I appreciate you helping me with my case)
I think we knew that, just havin' a bit of fun.![]()
You might have a point if Dirk wasn't averaging more minutes than any Piston, including Billups.
The minutes are spread among Dirk's supporting cast.
Yeah, I know you knew that... I just wasn't sure about the Mavs fans, lol.
