Vote for 2006-7 MVP Here

Re: Vote for 2006-7 MVP Here

because MVP is not the same as the best player in the league. If it was, Jordan would probably have 10, and Shaq would have more than 1.

I voted Nash but I am partial to Phoenix.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dirk wins.

How can you vote for Nash as the MVP, ie. best player in the leauge for most intent and purposes, and claim (in another thread) that J-Kidd is the best PG in the NBA?

In my eyes, MVP isn't whos the better player, but who is the most essential to their team. The Suns couldn't be so up tempo fast-paced etc. without him. Jason Kidd is the Best point guard in the league (imo), but Steve has the luck to have a better supporting cast for his style of play.

Re: Vote for 2006-7 MVP Here

and that's the problem. Thinking taking 45 shots to score 50 and a worse record than the previous year will get you an MVP.


Is value really in points?:wink:


Oh, and I think Mcgrady is a player that folks aren't giving any consideration when its as clear as day.

His team is worse without him than the Suns without Nash.


All in all, I'd say Nash, but he will most likely lose out to Dirk.

Take Bryant off the Lakers and they're the worst team in the NBA. Odom is hurt a good majority of the time, and their other big men are Cook, Bynum, and Brown.

I also believe Chris Bosh is the best big-man MVP candidate.

I think he means that Kobe doesn't deserve 12 votes.

I think he means that Kobe doesn't deserve 12 votes.

I'm saying that 80% of his posts in this forum are Kobe-concerned.

Voted for Nash, but agree with those who say T-Mac got snubbed. He's clearly #3 after Nash and Dirk and I'm shocked he's not up there.

Re: Vote for 2006-7 MVP Here

Agree with many of the above posters. It was nice to see T-Mac become healthy and dangerous once again. For the past year and a half he didn't really scare me when they faced the Suns, but once Yao went down, he really stepped it up. The only thing I didn't like was when he claimed that the Rockets are his team and that he has to create for everyone else but that shouldn't have any bearing on the MVP vote.

I voted for Dirk. I think he was just a major part in Dallas getting as many wins as they did.

Good points!!

Re: Vote for 2006-7 MVP Here

Tmac obviously deserves to be in the top 5, but maybe because he missed so many games, it was left out. Otherwise, I dont see a reason. I'd go with Dirk with Nash a close second.

But its true. Nobody on that team can create their own shot besides Tmac and Yao.

Tmac is responsible for creating shots for all of his teammates because they are nothing more than spot up shooters.

By default he is the leader, especially when you look at their record with him, and without him.
