Its Shaq. The Heat didn't just turn from a playoff team to a title contender, they are going to improve by 18 games, meanwhile the Lakers lost an extra 20 games. Not to mention that the Heat gave away their star player, a solid role player and a great 6th man. They were a totally different team. You can't argue that all he did was give them the extra push, they were a totally different team this year.
I would love if Nash won as point guards are my favourite players and Nash has always been a personal fav. The way I see it is that you could put handful of players in Nash's shoes and they would also put up great numbers.
Also, has there ever been an MVP that was as big a defensive liability as Nash?
