Why hasn't the MVP award been announced yet?

[sunsfn]

Stern is rewriting & rewriting his speech for presenting the award, trying to say something intelligent about the reasons Nowitzki won the award!

Seriously, when do they give it to Dirk if he won? He will get booed no matter where it happens.

If Nash had won, he'd have it by now.

I'm guessing they are waiting to see if the Suns get knocked out this round, which could save the NBA some face if Nowitzki is in fact the MVP award recipient.

Just give it to Nash so we can move on!

Bingo, we have a winner - this is what I think the delay is all about.

Maybe they're changing the title on the plaque to Most Invisible Player.

...or maybe they are adding REGULAR SEASON in a really large font at the top.

It would almost be disrespectful to Nash if Dirk got the MVP award while the Suns were at home. I'm thinking it will happen Saturday in SA or, better yet, presented in different game.

That's not what I said. What I said, is that if Nash won the MVP, they would have given it to him during the Spurs game on Sunday. Since they didn't, that means someone else won the award. Just like the last 2 years, the MVP is given to theplayer that wins the award at the FIRST playoff game in the 2nd round @ home. Since that didn't happen with Nash it is most likely Dirk that won the award.

That's when I joked about trying to find Dirk in the backwoods lake fishing in Germany.

They will not give it to someone at a playoff game if their team is no longer in the playoffs. They will schedule a press conference to hand the award out.

I'm bettin that Dirk will get the trophy in the TnT studios during the T-Mobile Halftime Report.

And will no ring MVP Barkley present the trophy?

How about a presentation in the Bay area at the GS/Utah game. That would be classic!

This is EXACTLY how I think it should go down. Glad I'm not the only one that sadistic.

Sounds logical to me.

I think almost all of us want Dirk to receive the MVP award (if he gets it) in a respectful manner because next to Nash, he is the best candidate. Dirk had a great season.

No it'll be Joey Crawford.
