Re: Dirk Nowitzki, NBA MVP?

At least when Nash won it was still possible for the Suns to win the championship.

Was it impossible for Dirk to win a regular season award when it was voted in the regular season? I believe Dirk and the Mavs made the playoffs, thus they had a chance to win the championship.

Ugh, are you joking with us here? The MVP award is typically handed out in front of the player's home crowd, usually I believe in the second round of the playoffs. Which the Dallas Mavericks did not make, which makes it impossible for him to receive it while they were still in contention.
Now once it's announced he's gonna have to fly back from Munich or wherever the hell he lives just to attend a press conference and put on a happy face while facing criticism about the legitimacy of his MVP. Big departure from the norm.
