What years did the nba get the mvp voting wrong and who were the correct picks for those years?

[Elim Garak]

Who do you believe should have been the correct choices?

2011 Derrick Rose. Dirk or Dwight Howard should have won that award.

 

[Controversy]

2005-06: Kobe should have won over Nash
2006-07: Kobe should have won over Dirk

Too bad the media had it out for him during those yrs

Thr bulls had the best record in the league, and swept miami in the regular season and had them nikkas crying in the lockeroom

Any given year there are 3 legit candidates. Unless it goes to the top player on the team with the best record each year, you can argue each year it didn't go to crowned MJ.

Dirk's team won 67 games. Kobe's team won 42 games. Why would Kobe finish ahead of Dirk?

 

[Jplaya2023]

2001 - Give it to Shaq over AI
2002 - Kidd over Duncan
2005 - Shaq over Nash
2006 - Wade over Nash
2007 - Bron over Dirk
2008 - Cp3 over Kobe
2009 - Kobe over Bron
2018 - Bron over Harden
2019 - Harden over Greek
2021 - Embeed over Joker

It's not a team award, it's an individual player award

06-07 was the season Kobe had 4 straight 50+ point games

Bron averaged 31 7 and 7 on a 50 win team the same season Kobe was getting 35 a night so I think he deserved it that year more than Nash or anyone else. Kobe probably should have gotten it in 2007 in retrospect cause I remember that being the first year seeing Bron coasting somewhat during the regular season. I think 2008's should have been CP3 but they HAD to give Kobe one at some point. 2011 2014 2015 Bron had a legit argument and should have at least one another during those seasons. I wouldn't say Harden was robbed but he had a legit argument going by the same criteria they seem to be judging Jokic by from 2017-2020 to being MVP.

For dudes who are into sports analytics, how do the MVPs of the last 25 years rate over the two runners up?

But they take team records into account in most cases that’s why I don’t understand how certain players don’t win it like cp3 should have won one with the clippers
