Dirk Nowitzki is the MVP
A nice conclusion to great regular season (the playoffs didn't happen), Dirk Nowitzki was officially awarded the MVP trophy by NBA Commissioner David Stern in Dallas yesterday. Dirk is the first European (he is from Germany) and Dallas Maverick to win the award. In his ninth season, Dirk lead the Mavericks to the franchise's best regular season record of 67-13. Nowitzki averaged 24.6 points, 8.9 rebounds and a career-high 3.4 assists. The 7-footer was the only NBA player to shoot at least 50 percent from the field (.502), 40 percent from the arc (.416) and 90 percent from the line (.904)
