Phoenix Suns 2009-10 Who is Your MVP, Unsung Hero?

Anyway, I voted for Stoudemire for MVP, but it was a tough call. His play was the main reason we got out of that swoon in the middle of the season and finished with the 3 seed. Unfortunately, he was mostly underwhelming (for his standards) in the playoffs. For unsung hero, I’d give co-honors to Lopez and Dragic. Lopez for helping Amare become the monster he did, and Dragic for finally allowing Nash to rest without having worry about the team imploding. Really, all of the bench was the main reason the Suns were so successful this year.

one for MVP, one for unsung hero.

Otherwise, I’m confused. I voted for Nash because he’s really the MVP. but maybe I should have voted for STAT, since we still need him to re-sign and I don’t want his feelings hurt if he sees this before signing on the dotted line.

I love what he brought to the team as far as hustle and determination. He seemed to always bring the engergy when we needed it.

I voted for Dudley (of course) but you truly can’t say MVP without thinking Nash.

for the captain and commander of this squad, the leader of the pack, the warrior who endures all the injuries. The player and fighter he is whose legacy is formed by leading and willing his team all way.

btw my unsung hero is uhmm.. tough one.. but i’ll go with JRich. he’s our barometer all season long.

because if we had to substitute anyone else at PF (Frye, Amundson) all year I am not sure if this team makes the playoffs…

If we had to substitute Goran for Steve, I still think we make the playoffs, abeit for a short stay…

Our battered hero, sacrificing his mug for the team at every turn. Hitting a clutch 3 pointer with an eye sealed shut was the most ballsy thing I’ve ever seen as a Suns fan.
Get this man to the Finals already.

But Goran Dragic is my Unsung Hero :)

I got noth’n, my mvp is who ever stepped it up when the team needed a spark. that was the great part about this team, you never knew where it was gonna come from. the rest of the time the suns were like a well oiled balanced machine (not like the machine in L.A.) it was truly a pleasure to watch…

Nash IS MVP, Stat played like one from late January on, everybody else stepped up at different times. I struggled with Hill – he could be an MVP too. He was always there to steady things, see what needed to be done, and just do it. That’s veteran leadership. JRich found his place, Lopez will be much better next year (stay healthy, big guy). Dudley is clutch, Lou is…well, he’s Lou, and I don’t have to tell anyone here who Lou is. Channing started out strong and got even better at the end of the year. Leandro because I love him, he’s a Sun through and through.
     But Goran is my favorite – I will never, ever watch him play without thinking of Steve Nash.

Where he drove the lane and wrapped the ball around Odom I believe to Amare for the Dunk. Almost like how Nash did a few years before.

I can’t count how many times he’s stepped on the court and changed the mentality of everyone else on the team. Hustle plays, 3-4 point plays, defense.

I’m also convinced his JMZ shenanigans probably sparked a lot of the chemistry on this team.

It’s sad to see this season over, because this group of guys were such a joy to watch and get to know. I hope these guys are back next season.

Without the bench we would not have gone as far into the playoffs as we did. Without the bench we not have gotten the 3rd seed in the west. Without the bench it would not have let our starters finish off their games without being on their last breath. So my MVPs were the bench, the combined effort of Goran, Jared, Lou, Channing and to some instance Leandro.
