    You cannot determine the MVP halfway thru the season, period.

    Suns without Nash are without a doubt still a playoff team, even in the west.

    C - Amare: one of the best young big men in the league,
    PF - Marion: one of the best role-players in the league, 20/10 guy his whole career, can do almost everything, great defender
    SF - Diaw: currently the best Point Forward in the league, also a good defender
    SG - Bell: great defender and 3 point shooter
    PG - Barbosa: not a great floor general, but is a great shooter and slasher, also a decent defender. Better than many starting PGs in the league.

    They'd have to play half-court ball probably, but with that talent they are still a 50 win team.

    That's no slight against Nash; team success is completely overrated in determining the MVP. Jordan-less Bulls in 94 still won 55 games, doesn't make MJ any worse.

    omg, WATCH THE GAMES, just over analizing their rosters doesnt work, the suns need nash because he is PERFECT to run the point in that system, freakin leandro barbosa cant play pg, all he can do is shoot, without nash they would maybe get the 8th seed, not more than that.

    stoudemire would look like dwight howard minus the rebounding without nash feeding him with pick and roll dunks all night, none of the spot up 3pt shooters would be as effective without nash, nash creates for others and for himself.

    the lakers were a very good team but when shaq missed games they played like trash, hell they had a 39% winning percentage in the games in which kobe played and shaq didnt, those teams were built around the best center in the league, they were talented even without him but they played bad without him, same for the suns, they are built around the best pg in the league, even with their whole talent they dont execute without him.

    45 tops. A playoff team in the East, not the West.

    Dude, why bump a 7-year-old thread that's nowhere near relevant to this season?
