Did everyone forget that the Mavs are a better team WITHOUT Nash!! The Mavs won 6 more games without him.
The Lakers are certainly not better without Shaq. They'll suck for years now because they let him go. Nash will never affect any team that he ever plays for like that. The people that voted are just morons who look at Shaq and say he's the best, and we all know it so lets give it to the little guy. So very fucking stupid. There's at least 12 players in the league that are better/more valuable than Nash....

the mavs and lakers are completely different teams. the mavs are essentially the same team minus nash, whereas the lakers only had kobe return for the starting 5. add to that, accounting for injuries on the lakers makes a difference, and a huge one at that. add to that, the mavs won 6 more games, yet only finished 1 seed higher... which would seem to say that everyone in the west that made the playoffs did better than last year.
the suns won 33 more games this year than they did last year. the heat won 17 more games this year than they did last year.
add ot that, i didn't know the mvp trophy stood for the player which you would build a franchise around.
don't get me wrong, i'm a shaq fan, but think that nash deserves the recognition.
