Arenas is amazing

[Monkeydad]

I know...Nash had 21 ASSISTS in a game last week. He also scored like 42 once earlier in the year.

However, he does sit on the bench a lot and the Suns still run up the scoreboard without him, so it could be that Nash is just benefitting from a good offensive system. Seriously, they plug anyone into that lineup and still score 130+ points any given night.

Yes, Nash does help Stoudamire and Marion have big games every night, but Arenas does the same for Jamision and Butler, who both average near 20 pts/gm.

Arenas is definately more "valuable" than anyone else to their team...without him, the Bullets would be in major trouble and would have problems scoring 80 points.

Hopefully Nash doesn't win again this year. With Gil's breakout season, hopefully he'll win. I think he's the only guy who can beat Nash for the award. Iverson won't...his numbers should go down when Anthony is back. Anthony could've had a chance without getting suspended for 5 weeks. Lebron and Kobe aren't helping their teams win with their stats. Duncan's on the decline.

It almost has to be Nash or Arenas....but I think Arenas is the most VALUABLE player.

Yeah, Arenas is probably more valuable to his team -- but only because there is less talent on the Wizards than the Suns. Without regard to age (or character), I'd rather have Nash than Arenas.
