the NBA MVP is ....

... Steve Nash! the first Canadian ever to win the award, and the first point guard in 40 years to be named MVP. the favourite to win was Shaq, whom Nash said he would have voted for, but Nash is a deserving MVP and was indeed an impact player for his team, helping to turn around the Suns. congrats! :beer: :beer2:

Yup. PG's don't get named MVP too often because they don't score much, Nash is an awesome player, and worthy of the award. Congrats to him!

At best, I think Nash and Shaq deserved honors shared.

Congrats to Nash but no other recipient has been as one-dimensional as Nash to my knowledge.
