The way it should be.
Yes sir. I'm a huge Korver fan. Heady pickup by the Jazz, he's gonna thrive in Utah.
This Jazz team is scary. But man, I woulda liked Dee Brown as backup PG a hella lot better than Jason Hart.
Wait, when the hell did Korver get traded to Utah?!
Like two weeks ago; Giricek and a first.
He scored 107 points in his first game with the Jazz; I'm shocked you didn't hear about it.

Oh and one more note, now you guys know why Steve Nash was MVP twice.

come on Dirk you can say that about most Superstar from each team
Obviously there are a few other players that have that kind of effect on their teams, but if Garnett went down in Boston, would they keep theirheads above water while he was out? Yes.
Dirk in Dallas? Yes.
Duncan in San Antonio? Yes.
Billups, Rasheed or Rip in Detroit? Yes.
Most every legitimate championship contender could at least keep their heads above water if their best player went out for a certain period of time. NotPhoenix. They look like hell damn near every time Steve Nash misses a game. Sure, Kobe, LeBron and a couple others have that same effect on their teams, butSteve Nash is undeniably in that group of guys that their teams simply cannot survive without for an extended stretch of time.

That's quite the interesting, craptastic argument.
Take LeBron off the Cavs last year. Forget the Finals, would they even make the playoffs? Guess he should have been MVP.
Take Kobe off the Lakers and Kidd off the Nets. You think those teams would lose ONE GAME by 30? Yes, they would have. So I guess they should have been MVPs as well.
If the Suns had a sub-par starting PG (like D-Fish) and he was gone, along with Matrix, it would be reasonable to expect the team to fail, and to fail miserably.
Calm down using one blowout to back up your boy's undeserving honor of being in the company of Magic, Jordan, and Bird.
Ska is right on one point - you can't really judge someone's deserving of MVP or not based on one game. Especially one in which the team waswithout 3/5 of its starting lineup. Take away three starters from ANY basketball team and 99% of the time that team will lose.
But where your argument is flawed, Ska, is when you make this comment:
Calm down using one blowout to back up your boy's undeserving honor of being in the company of Magic, Jordan, and Bird.
Nash WAS, in fact, deserving of his MVP awards. He was the most the most valuable player in those given seasons. You can not compare his seasonsto those that won MVP awards in the past. One has nothing to do with the others. Nash didn't win his MVP awards in years when Magic, Jordan, or Bird wereplaying. He won them in years in which Fakers SG#24, LeBroom James, and others that would never hold Magic, Jordan, and Bird's jockstraps were playing.
Just like you can't make the argument that Nash didn't deserve the MVP because Jason Kidd didn't win one in the years he took the Nets to theFinals...it has nothing to do with previous winners. All that matters is his performance against others that same year...and Nash outplayed them all.
I didn't even bother watching this game when I found out that Trix was out. Without Hill, ok we could have won. Without Nash and Hill, it was extremelydoubtful, but without Nash, Hill AND Matrix, we had no chance in hell. I just hope Trix and Steve are healthy on Saturday...although the Bucks aren'treally much of a team...but without 3 starters we could even lose that game.

I know, I know.That was just a little closing line to the reply which was mainly made to make the 'one night' argument.
I mean, I don't personally think he deserved back-to-back, but I'm not mad at the fact that he has them. I think Kidd should have gotten one during his back-to-back Finals trips, but that has zero to do with Nash.
OK thanks for clearing that up. I was hoping that you actually didn't base your opinion of Nash's MVPs on previous winners. If you think someoneelse deserved it those years based on their own performances, that's fine...you're entitled to your opinion...but if you think "Nash shouldn'thave won two MVP's because ( insert historical player here) didn't win two MVP's...well then, your logic would be as twisted as your choice offavorite NBA team.
