Overall how would you rank these three players each year from 2005-’07?

05 is the really tough year. I honestly have no idea. Nash feels like he should be last, but then he was the MVP. KG/Dirk/Nash? Don't feel great about it.
06 is Dirk, Nash, KG
07 is Dirk, Nash, KG

KG had by far the best regular season in 05 and was arguably the best in 06 as well but has no case for 07. Dirk is a lock for 06 but disappointing play-off performances in 05 and 07 hurt him. I think Nash is overall the worst player of the bunch but he is definitely the most consistent in this period.

05: KG, Nash, Dirk
06: Dirk, Nash, KG
07: Nash, Dirk, KG

Ranking KG and Nash in 05 and 06 is the most difficult part. I could see KG or Nash being ahead both years. I do think KG regressed enough, while Nash upped his game a bit compared to 05 to have the opposite order in 06.
