    Good enough to be an MVP but not an All-star

    Name the players who did not make the all star the year they were named MVP.
    And since some of these players are multiple MVPs please give the year.

    I believe K.Gibson is the only MVP winner to NEVER be an All Star in any year.

    Correct on those 5.

    There are still quite a few players left on the board.
