Who will be this years NBA MVP? 6th Man?

REMEMBER: THE MVP AWARD STANDS FOR "MOST VALUABLE PLAYER... NOT NECESSARILLY THE BEST PLAYER"

Personally... I think that Steve Nash should be the MVP and Leandro Barbosa should win the 6th-man-of-the-year award. HOWVER, Jerry Stackhouse also deserve the 6th Man award. But, I would be happy either way.

I DON'T think that Dirk Nowitski should be this years MVP for the simple fact that his team can do well enough without him... STACK, HOWARD, TERRY, HARRIS, DAMPIER... There's your starters!

But Steve Nash is the core of the Phoenix Suns team. He doesn't just call plays... He RUNS the Offense (and since they can't play D, they are totally screwed w/o him.)

Ginobli would be a great choice for 6th Man IF HE WAS A 6th MAN! He gets more minutes than many starters.

(Disclaimer) I know. Both my picks play for the Suns... and, yes, I like the Suns... but that is NOT the reason I picked these choices!

MVP will definately be Nash. He sets everything up for his team. 6th Man will be Leandro. He comes off the bench with lots of energy and contributes to his team. If he does not get a fast break, then it is a very rare occasion.

These 2 also deserve it because they are very humble. You don't see record numbers from them, but Nash always gets a double- double and they do not care if they get these awards, they just want to contribute to their team and they deserve a Championship!

MVP-- Should definatly be Nash! Since the Suns are really nothing without him! He carries them from game to game doing AWESOME ofensive playing. While Dallas can stand to be without Dirk on the team.

6th Man-- Should be Barbosa!
totally agree with you, Dirk is awesome but the suns are where they are today mostly because of nash, he makes everyone better, and Barboza is having a carreer year, hes possibly the fastest player in the league right now and hes a great shooter.

Roy for rookie of the year, wich i think would have been a though one if Bargnani had stayed healthy.

Mitchell for coach of the year, what he and colangelo have done with the Raptors is outstanding.

Camby for defensive player of the year, and Monta Ellis for Most Improved player.
Also remember, it is the LEAGUE MVP, not just one team. That being said, it comes down to the best players on the two best teams. Nash or Nowitzki.

6th man-Porbably Ben Gorden, but I vote for Jerry Stackhouse.

Guess who my favorite team is.
I think Dirk Nowitzki will win MVP, I would like to see Steve Nash win. As far as 6th man? Maybe Jerry Stackhouse. Not Manu Ginobli cause he comes in the game with like 9 minutes left in the 1st quarter
mvp-nash 6th man-barbosa
If your question is who will win MVP, the answer is going to be Dirk. Further, I am don't think a lineup of Stackhouse, Howard, Terry, Harris and Dampier does any better the Phoenix's lineup without Nash. Most teams tend to be pretty bad without their best player.

As for the sixth man, I think it is very likely to be Ginobili. There is no limit on the number of minutes played, and historically, players like Kevin McHale have won the award. Barbosa's best chance is if voters don't realize Ginobili is eligible.
MVP - Steve Nash

Reason - Phoenix Suns are Steve Nash. Without him, no under the baskets for Shawn Marion, a lot less alley-oops and less fast breaks. So pretty much not the Sun's bball that we all know and love. They cant win without him, they become this sluggish mediocre team when he's not in the game. Also he is their leader, he keeps them grounded. Notice when they were on their crazy 18 game win streak, Steve was never satisfied. "Streaks dont win champsionships". Im sure he tells that to his team everyday. He takes the fall when they lose, he spreads the credit when they win. But we all know whos running the greatest bball show on the court, Steve Nash.

6th Man - Leandro Barbosa

Reason - Im sick of all this b/s about Ben Gordon and Manu. They arent bench players! Ben Gordon started almost every game, and he only came off the bench for that strech of 3 weeks because Scott Skiles wanted to shake things up. And Manu plays starter's minutes every game. So it comes down to Stackhouse and Barbosa. Who has more impact? Barbosa without a doubt, he comes off the bench with energy, and is a fantastic scorer. Barbosa is more of a key role in the Suns success that Stackhouse is. Barbosa brings it night after night, where as in Dallas, one night Stack will go for 30 and the other Austin Croshere will drop that. I'm not saying Austin Croshere is anything close to Stack, but the mav's are very very deep. They got alot of players to come off the bench and contribute for them. Thats why they're more successfull the Phoenix. Sun's rotation is very short, but they got one man on there that will make up for it. Barbosa.
Although personally I believe that Kobe deserves MVP, Dirk, I think, will get the reward( even though Nash deserves it more than him) 6th man of the year definately goes to Leandro Barbosa. He has been stepping up to the plate and taking care of business for the Suns. In a few years he could probably be an All-Star. Barbosa has the skills to do whatever he needs to do to contribute to the Suns offense and defense.
I 'll have to go with Dirk for MVP.

Your starters are stack, howard, terry, harris, and damp??

uhh, who is gonna play the power forward?stack?ya, not gonna work.

Barbosa for 6th man though.
