    I should try to not let it get to me at times, it’s just annoying as hell bro

    if Harden was averaging 23, 3, and 5 like Kyrie is, and the Rockets still had this 13-4 record and were 1st in the West, u wouldn’t even hear about him

    these fools really just might give the MVP to Kyrie over Harden even tho Kyrie is nowhere near his level...I guess all I can do is continue to root for Boston and Milwaukee’s demise and let the chips fall where they may

    Its even more frustrating when you see the youtube comments for these videos

    “Lol harden plays no D at all, he cant get mvp”

    “Harden has morr Ls”

    “Harden is a b****, he hasnt done **** in the playoffs to help his team. Hardens stats look nice but kyrie is far more valuable”

    “Kyrie has championship experience and is more mobile and alert than harden. Ill take kyrie over harden”

    Lmao. People hate harden man. Its insane.

    This is the exact second it was over.

    Zach Lowe gets alot of his ideas from conversations with this guy and we all know how many of these "journalists" just parrot Lowe.

    Harden gets beat by a player with lowest win total for any MVP in 35 yrs, because Triple Double

    Now Irving would the first MVP evar to have <23ppg, <6apg and under (wait for it) under 13rpg ... and he leads, because Wins.

    That 13rpg is a big number to be under. Kyrie is actually <4 rpg. So, the only MVPs who scored that little with that few Assists were Bigs...Russell, Reed, Cowens and Unseld and they all had HUGE (>13rbp) rebounding numbers in their MVP years.

    He has actually, this guy is just snooty as bleep.

    This is the kind of guy that would complain that his 3 star hotel doesn't offer enough pillow options.

    I think Harden is the better player! Thus far Kyrie has never had to shoulder the brunt of carrying a team. It's a big difference. However Kyrie is more flashy and his plays garner more attention, similar to Westbrook but below the rim. Westbrook won last year because of style points.....UNFORTUNATELY FOR HARDEN, WHEN IT COMES TO THE MVP, HE JUST MAY ALWAYS BE A BRIDESMAIDE AND NEVER THE BRIDE!

    At least ESPN had that right. In their Top 100 Players for 2018, they had Kyrie at #21.

    I don’t listen to him that often, is he a huge Harden hater?

    I’ve heard him on a few Lowe podcasts, but he was so boring that I couldn’t get through them.

    Oh yea, he was the one that began the ESPN Kawhi for MVP effort. There was an exact podcast where he drew a line in the sand on it. Maybe I'll look for it in a second.

    The thing with him is that his vocabulary is pretty large so he doesn't have to just come out and bash a guy, instead will do continuous passive aggressive jabs and snide remarks. Just like that airplane food tweet.

    Honestly, I'm gonna be real. It is a joke how over hyped Zach Lowe is as a sports analyst.

    He is alright, but this idea that he is the guru is dumb. The guy isn't that smart (he is smart, but not that smart) yet people act like he's a genius. I can't be mad at Lowe though. It's solely a product of how incredibly stupid and incompetent his peers are.
