I didn't think they would be this good, honestly, but I don't see that as relevant.

Yeah, no one did. Everyone credited Nash's MVP to the players around him. But this year, with a completely different cast of players, Nash is leading the Suns to a second seed in the west. Isn't that a testament to his value? You can't just keep crediting ths system and the players, when Nash runns the system and the players changed around him. His value is unquestionable, and I don't think him winning the MVP title would be as rediculous as you claim.
And talking about stats. Nash is averaging 19+ points and 11+ assists. The last player to average those type of stats was Magic Johnson.
