I would have voted for Tina. In the past her top numbers would have been what won the award. These advanced stats that have been promoted are good for tracking certain things but I don't think it's a reflection of the MVP. Nneka is surrounded by a lot more talent. Tina carried her team more than Nneka had to. But that being said, Nneka worked hard and congratulations to her on the award. I hope in the future proper weight is given to ALL factors in the voting of the MVP and it's not lobbied for in the media before all the votes are in.

I think Nneka set the WNBA record. She was flirting with Wilt's NBA record of about 72%, but that's ridiculously high.

How many Vols/Irish fans going to blame Coach Geno for AP naming all those UConn Players dominating the All-Pro teams?

All of them right after they screw in their lightbulbs, lol.

I have no problem with Nneka getting the MVP. If she took as many shots as Tina, with that FG%, she'd have scored over 30 pts a game. You can definitely have made a case for either of them winning, so I'm ok with it as it is.

SMH Tina have to take way more shots than Nneka does. Look that stat up, Tina took more shots. Her team is less takented but good enough to beat any team in the WNBA. And while Tina was Consistent all year Nneka started off slow and came on mid season. Tina got ROBBED

Tina being robbed is a big story. Was it at gunpoint?

If you set the stats aside for now and consider hussle plays and leadership and making the biggest shots of the game, then Maya is the one. These factors that aren't considered here are what will win another trophy.
