There are some brilliant photos of Dirk and Nash absolutely hammered in a nightclub. I think they are on the same site.

Dirk Nowitzki - likely about to become the Shane Woewodin of the NBA.

Okay that's harsh, if he wins MVP he'll deserve it alot more than Woewodin deserved his Brownlow...but still, alot less than Steve Nash and Kobe Bryant.

Why would he deserve it less than them 2?

Game 6...Mav's resident superstar, Dirk "Mr. Regular Season" Nowitzki, shoots 2/13 for 8 pts...way to lead your 67-win team to one of the most embarassing first-round exits in NBA history

Nash and Kobe are proven pressure performers, their best is far more valuable than Dirk's (most people would take Kobe's 55-pt big games or Nash's 30pt, 20 assist big games over Dirk's mediocre 30pt, 15reb "big" games)...and to be honest, just because he was the best player in the best regular season team doesn't make him the whole league's best player.

When was Nash a proven pressure performer??????

That would be the playoffs right? So the MVP for the regular season would have nothing to do with this, right?

It's only embarrassing for those that refused to believe GS matches up brilliantly against the Mavs. They beat them 6/7 times before the series started and that was no fluke. There is a reason that many basketball fans made a lot of money from this series.

Why not Steve Nash has got it the last 2 seasons for putting up good numbers during the regular season and taking his team no where.

Exactly so - and it's an obviously flawed system, the fact that the most prestigous individual award in the NBA is a regular season award. There's a reason Dirk and the Mavs are being lambasted by anyone with a sports column right now. And yes I realise the Mavs made the finals last year, but Dirk is the main MVP favourite this year, not last.

Go to espn.com to see the experts lamenting how this may end up being one of the most embarassing MVP decisions in NBA history...although to be fair it probably has more to do with the Mavs' failure than Dirk (his bad luck to be the best player on the best regular season team which subsequently gets bounced in the 1st round).

Here's a sample:

Well, what happened to him???? Where did he go? Game 6 wasn't an aberration because Nowitzki looked like a mess for two weeks. The problems first surfaced in mid-March, when Phoenix and Dallas played on the night before March Madness started. Although the game was billed as a battle between the two top MVP candidates, Steve Nash emerged as the dominant player, notching 32 points, 16 assists, 8 rebounds and nearly every clutch play in a double-OT victory. Watching the game with two buddies, we agreed that it was a seminal moment of the 2007 season -- Nash just wanted it more than Nowitzki did. You could see it. I still remember my buddy House hissing, "So much for the MVP race."
