Though Steve Nash has put up better numbers than last year, it just doesn’t look like he’ll get the MVP
Its like what he did this year for the Phoenix Suns was the same as last year, and that is make the Suns a winning team and headed for the playoffs. Never mind that a couple of key players for the Suns have been injured and won’t be playing, other players with other teams are just getting more attention. Thats not to say that those other players aren’t deserving, but since what Steve Nash has done is basically the same as what he did last year, I think that for some reason more was expected from him this year for him to win that coveted award.
To get the MVP, it looks like it helps to do something different than last year, even though what made a player an MVP was to win games and make others better players.
