message: Duncan was born in the US Virgin Islands, he's an American citizen. This article makes it seem like he isn't American, despite the fact that his bio page says he is. 75.67.154.212 03:14, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Should a picture of Shaquille O'Neal replace the picture of Tim Duncan, or at least be added to the list? Since shaq is one of two players who have won the award three times in a row. Black'nRed 17:59, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Requested move 

message: Does anyone else think this distinction should be removed? It was a one time selection, therefore all future MVP's who are newer to the league will not be eligible for selection, especially due to it not being updated annually, or EVER again really. Look at Jokić, our latest MVP. If this selection was actually ever updated again, he would make the team easily. I think we should remove this distinction. Spirit Fox99 (talk) 15:31, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree. A lot of these lists are becoming to cluttered with notations and shading.  We didn't have the 50th anniv team before.  And it's recentism to add the 7th now, plus a bit biased for players who might not be named until say the 100th anniv.  HOF is good enough. —Bagumba (talk) 16:26, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with you. Hall of Fame is all that is needed here. Spirit Fox99 (talk) 18:13, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @Spirit Fox99 I respectfully disagree. Insofar certain players are in the HoF but not in the 75 team, I believe it's useful to have the distinction. The most important of course is to indicate those who are not in any of them, but still were MVPs.  Harry Deconstructing (talk) 16:35, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Cool, 2 against 1 so far. Please have a better reason next time. Spirit Fox99 (talk) 16:41, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Remove NBA 75 team distinction? 

message: Just wonder if the article name should change to 'Bill Russell NBA Finals Most Valuable Player award'. I just came from the article of the NBA All-Star Game Kobe Bryant MVP award. It seems the community prefers having the full names in the NBA Awards articles. Zaffrice (talk) 21:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
