Dirk Nowitzki won the NBA MVP and it felt empty

Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks became the first Maverick and first European Born Player to Win the NBA League MVP. still the way His season ended with His Mavericks being knocked out in the first round there was a empty feeling. now granted Mavericks coach Avery Johnson was on hand and Maverick's Owner Mark Cuban has always held Nowitzki in high regards,but there is some sentiment amongest sportswriters and NBA Critics that if a Re-Vote could be done then Nowitzki might not get it. He deserved the regular Season MVP because He was a Great Player during the season and the Dallas Mavericks WOn 67 Games which only a handful of teams have Won as many or more in a season.this was the first time in twenty five years that a player Won the MVP while there team didn't get too far in the post season.Moses Malone was the last Person to Win League MVP only to have his Team knocked out early. difference being that back in the day the first round was a best 2 out of 3. also while Dirk is Great for his time period, he ain't no Moses Malone who following that season of early elimination, went to Philly and captured a World's Championship Title. what happens next for Dirk will be interesting,but this year left a congradulations,but also some doubts. He didn't look too good in the playoffs this year against the Golden State warriors, after leading the Mavericks last year into the Finals and losing to the Miami Heat, which in alot of ways left Dirk with a Hang over that in alot of ways he never recovered from. next year shall be interesting for Dirk and the Dallas Mavericks.
