Is it me or Is AI not getting any respect in the league?
There is a recent survey in NBA.COM where they asked respectable people in the league on who is their though on their MVP. Interestingly, no one mentioned AI. All were rooting for either Nash or Lebron.

I do think that he is the MVP this year.


Your thoughts?

Sub .500 team.  There hasn't been an MVP winner that had less than 47 wins (with the exception of the strike shortened season) in 20 years.

I think that Nash is more deserving then AI...
Phoenix is one of the top 4 teams in the league with Nash, and one of the worst without him.
Philly is is just not that good with AI, although they are just as bad without him.
I hope Nash wins it this year...  He deserves it.

AI is playing the best in the league this year but how can you be the Most "Valuable" on a team with a bad record....someone who has a bad record really couldn't have the most valuable piece in the league...that's why Nash and LeBron get all the respect....but AI is playing the best in the league this year

it's not "illegal" but it's not how the people who vote on this decide on MVP.  Winning is probably the biggest determining factor, and that's been proven in the past.
