PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns have scheduled a news conference for Sunday at
which it is expected guard Steve Nash will officially be named MVP for the
second straight season.
The announcement would come the day after Nash helped lead the Suns to an
opening-round playoff series win over the Los Angeles Lakers, becoming the
eighth team to come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a playoff series.
Late last month, several news outlets reported Nash would win the award for a
second consecutive season. The Arizona Republic and others reported that the
voting shows Nash edging LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki, Chauncey Billups and
Kobe Bryant for the MVP.
The Phoenix Suns playmaker would become the 10th player to win the award in
consecutive seasons.
Nash, 32, won his first MVP award last season when he edged Shaquille O'Neal
in what was the fourth-closest balloting in history.
This season, Nash had career-highs in points (18.8 points per game), rebounds
(4.2 per game), field goal percentage (51.2 percent) and free-throw
percentage (92.1 percent -- best in the league). He was also the
league-leader in assists (10.5) and shot nearly 50 percent from 3-point range.
