So why did the NBA give Steve Nash those MVPs when he didn't deserve them?

He was just throwing alley oops to Stoudamire and Marion while shooting below-average from the floor and playing lame defense. 1 steal per game avg?


Call a career 49/42/90 player a below-average shooter brehs

Say a guy who led the NBA in assists at age 36 with no athletes on his team an alley-oop thrower brehs

Because the Suns had the best record in the league in 2005 at 62-20 after finishing 29-53 the year before (21-40 with MDA) and in 2006 Amare Stoudemire missed all but three games with a knee injury yet the Suns led by Nash still maintained the top offense in the league and got the 2nd seed in the West. In the postseason he played transcendent basketball and was Dirk dominating the Suns (which he was powerless to stop) from making the NBA Finals without his 2nd best player & leading scorer

Kobe wasn't going to win it because his teams weren't good enough. Didn't make the playoffs in 2005. Yeah team success means alot in terms of MVP voting. Pretty rare you don't have a team sitting at or near the top of a conference yet win MVP. LBJ's Cavs weren't good enough either. KG's wolves were terrible they didn't even make the playoffs.

If MJ was on the Bucks instead of the Bulls, he'd still have been the best player in the league, record be damned.
That's all I'm saying.

Individual accomplishments not being relevant to team accomplishments is a tenet that's shared across all sports, you jagaloon.

:stopitslime: Only player in nba history to win mvp and his team didn't make the playoffs was kareem and that was damn near 40 years ago

Baseball is a sport that is about numbers specifically individual numbers.You sound like you don't have a clue about what you're talking about
