It mainly looks like MVP depends really on your team winning. I have never seen a guy win MVP and his team wasn't in the playoffs.


Well isn't that realistic in basketball? Name the last time the MVP of the NBA came from a team that didn't make the playoffs?

Lakers center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who won his fourth MVP during the 1975-76 season, when the Lakers finished 40-42.

Could we get a stat that show which positions won the MVP award?

To me it looks like winning the MVP award is most likely for centers followed by shooting guards. I have only seen one PG MVP so far, two PF MVPs and no SF MVP.

Maybe that has something to do with how its easy to train a center or SG but other positions are either harder to train or trained less often.

Also I'm pretty sure a SF is going to win MVP in my league.

well in your other post you seemed to be surprised that there weren't more MVPs who were not C or SG. So he's giving you another data point.

Here's another, MVP in our league was a PF.

I really dont get your point. What does a single PG MVP prove?

For Austria:
DIV 1: C is MVP, only big men in the voting
DIV 2: 3 C, 1 PG
DIV 3: 4 C, 3 PF, 2 SF, 4 SG, 3 PG - as this is botland I think it is not represantative, so lets take a look at Italy

Italy DIV 3:
5x C, 4x PF, 0x SF, 7x SG, 0x PG

--------------

It would be interesting to see the global stats, to me it looks like MVP an award that prefers big men and shooting guards.
