True, but when you have Marion, Amare, Richardson, etc, its tough not to win. It looks like that Final they won was impressive, no wait, they didn't win cause Nash sucked it up. They didn't even make it to the semi's. Granted, they had to play the Spurs, but still its embarrasing to have lost in that fashion.

Yea, but that isn't all Nash's fault. I mean, when you have a star-studded line-up, it's certainly not fair to blame it all on Nash. But what about Dallas? When Nash left, Dallas struggled. When Nash joined the suns, they thrived. I don't see how it is embarassing to lose to the NBA champions -- they couldn't have picked a better team to lose against. The Spurs outplayed them, simple as that. That doesn't take away from Steve Nash's abilities at all. Without Nash, the Suns would crumble in my opinion, and that is what makes an MVP.
That said, I don't think it's fair to say that Kobe isn't worthy of the MVP. I mean his team is a play-off contender -- they don't have that much talent on that team. The fact that Kobe can completely carry a team on his shoulders is saying quite a bit. Both are fit contenders for the MVP award.
Marbury -- ehh, Marbury isn't that great imo. Nash is a much better point guard. In my opinion, Francis is a better point guard than Marbury too, however his numbers have certainly decreased this year.
