    Lol, we have many boring blowout wins so the ones playing in the final 5 minutes are joe chee and bobby brown. Harden does his job early.

    this award has lost all credibility, I would consider it insult to Harden if they award it to him in the end

    Yes, you are right. We need to stop caring lol. Seriously though

    We always laugh at what these analysts have to say when we hear them talk so why do we care how they vote?

    at this point, harden/pringles/morey/CP3 should all just go public with their full support and backing of Ky-Rie for MVP. rockets.com should post an animated banner on their homepage as well. trolls the trolls with a blitzkrieg movement and promote the #neverharden mantra so hard it actually becomes a slap in their crooked fuking faces

    I messed up, sorry.

    Clearly they are picking up the narrative. Marc Stein's tweet I just realized was a reply to some other guy's tweet about Kyrie's clutch stats.

    Sorry dudes, looks like we found the metric this year. Clutch stats. Maybe if Joe Chee could improve he could get some MVP votes since he's usually the one playing the last 5 minutes of Rockets games though?

    Harden will finish 2nd again. If not, 3rd. I'm not quite sure what he did, but he is never going to be a media darling, therefore will never win MVP.

    the start of Harden’s dislike by the media was after that defense video was made

    he was loved when he was in OKC and was well liked his 1st season in Houston

    I care because Harden deserves an MVP. I don’t want to see 1 of our players get shafted for something 3 times. The steps they’ll take to give it to anyone but Harden is ridiculous. I’m not even greedy, I just want Harden to get 1 MVP and then I’m good.

    Harden scores 48 against the Suns - meh
    Kyrie scores 47 against the Mavs - MVP!

    A lot of them sound so uninformed, but they still get to vote for stuff like this and shape someone’s legacy. Russ is making them look so bad right now. Guys left his team, and they’re playing better after being seen as scrubs, and now he has Melo and PG, and his team isn’t even .500 and he’s even more inefficient than last year. That’s the guy who gets MVP over Harden?

    smh, give Harden Melo and PG and see what happens...60+ wins easy

    Isaiah Thomas averaged 29 points and 6 assists per game last season for the 1st seed in the East

    Received zero first place votes

    Kyrie Irving is averaging 23 points and 5 assists per game this season for the 1st seed in the East

    Is the front runner for MVP

    I agree with everything you say here. You are preaching to the choir. These are the exact arguments that I say all the time to folks.

    My only point is that I am going to protect myself from having faith in these clearly biased media members who all have an agenda against harden.

    Not going to keep banging my head against the wall over these idiots.
