Dirk officially MVP

He won it narrowly over Nash with 1,138 points vs 1,013 (not that narrow I guess), Kobe was a distant third 521 points while Tim Duncan (286) and Lebron (183) were next in line.

Dirk had 83 first place votes, Nash 44 and Kobe 2, no one else registered a first place.

Interesting to note that all NBA first team centre Amare only registered 2 points which put him 14 in the rankings.

Here's more details.

what a sad day for the nba...and no its not really intersting amare got than many votes - the voting systems are different from nba teams...being the only real centre worthy was the reason for amares first place selection...and the 1 more vote shaq got than amare...is meaningless...just means that 1 voter out of however many hundred said yeah...shaq should be fourth

For f**ks sake Amare isn't the only real centre worthy for All-NBA and definitely shouldn't have been there in the first team over Yao.

'they werent gonna give him it 3 years running' ...this isnt like sharing or giving everyone a go (its the NBA) - that shouldnt factor in to whether or not he should win the award

yeh i agree elg if dirk wins it this year in the best team in the comp, why the didnt chauncey win it last year wen they had the best record in the league, i mean he was the best player on the best team during the regular season so he should have been the most valuable player in the league.

PISTONS PRIDE!

Game 6 bring it on
