How does the Live2000 database select its regular season MVP? Whether in franchise or season, I notice that there exists a select (4 or 5) rotation of players who receive the MVP trophy during awards distribution. While the # of MVP candidates is realistic, the fact that the actual recipent often has accumulated less impressive statistics or that he plays for a low playoff seed/non-qualifier is not -- the same oddities hold true for All-NBA 1st Team selections, All-Defensive & midseason All-Star teams.
So what factors does the Live database take into account in selecting its association award recipients? Just curious as to whether anyone might have a legitimate answer. Thx.
