Seeing has how Vince Young failed it and is now one of the lead candidates for Rookie of the Year, should they just dump the test since it's obvious that it doesn't prove diddly squat about the player being tested?

Nash to Win Second Straight MVP Award

"Steve Nash will win his second straight NBA MVP award, according to the Arizona Republic.

The newspaper cited an unnamed league source familiar with the voting who (reportedly) said the Suns point guard will become the 10th player to repeat as MVP.
Magic Johnson is the only point guard to have won the award in two consecutive seasons.

The Republic said the official announcement may not come for two weeks.

But the votes have been counted, and it appears Nash has won a close race that also included LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki, Chauncey Billups and Kobe Bryant.

Nash, who would be the first international and the first Suns player to capture the award twice, won the fourth-closest MVP vote last year when he edged Shaquille O'Neal.

The 32-year-old Victoria, British Columbia native posted career highs this season in scoring (18.8 points per game), rebounding (4.2 per game), field goal percentage (.512) and converted 92.1 percent of his free throws to lead the NBA in that category.

He also led the league in assists again, averaging 10.5 per game, and finished sixth in three-point shooting, converting nearly 44 percent of his attempts.

Nash helped the Suns to a successful defense their Pacific Division title and a 54-28 record during the regular season."

Wowwwww, the women's championship game was WAY more exiciting than the men's game.  Did you see that three-pointer to tie the game by Maryland with 6 seconds left?  Talk about clutch.

The men's game was seemingly a runaway throughout, while the women's game was exciting down to the end.

Oh yeah....congrats to Florida (men's) and Maryland (women's).
