    Harden lead that straw poll last year but Westbrook "#narratived" his way at the end with the 4th quarter comebacks against bad teams.

    I can see the writing on the wall with LeBron. Cavs will be in the same situation and LeBron has a FOIL in Kyrie for the #narrative. It will be interesting to see if I.T. coming back mucks with that any.

    ONLY chance Harden has is him keeping up his current EFFICIENCY and perhaps keeping the #1 seed. Still might not be enough.

    There were PLENTY of "Harden straw poll voters" that were SWAYED to flip flop to Westbrook late last year due to #narrative. That could EASILY and more than likely will happen this go round as well.

    Harden’s MVP case is even stronger than last year...I think he has a fine narrative, it’s just not what the media will gravitate towards

    Harden’s best narrative would be leading the league in scoring and assists while being the 1st seed in the West

    It seems like it's become an inside joke among media members that Rockets fans are miserable crybabies who believe the world is against them.

    Every time I hear a podcast that finally finds time to talk Rockets, they bring up us miserable Rockets fans. Media has made us this way. They act like they have been covering the Rockets fairly this whole time. Sorry not sorry. I hope we continue to annoy them.

    the media b****es are still touchy from a couple years back when the players corrected them with their mvp vote and chose harden over curry. media b****es feel threatened when their jobs, which appear to require zero qualifications whatsoever, get exposed as obsolete and expendable

    Preach. They can act like we are babies all they want.

    I won’t feel shamed for acknowledging how biased theyve been.

    Saw these stats on his shooting and it's just unbelivable
    Not sure who second place is for any of these stats but wtf :eek: .......



    .....The man is a machine, makes everything looks so easy and is ridiculously efficient, if the media spins this into the year LeBron gets a 5th MVP I'm gonna lose my sh**

    Stop swinging the criteria to fit media-driven narratives, and Rockets fans will gladly shut up.

    What we are seeing is resentment that they were so blatantly wrong about Westbrook.

    It has been said before but can not be understated, these people have pride and love being right. They tried to feed us bullbleep last year and now we are shoving THEIR faces in it.

    Do not relent!!
