    So much for Pops making a difference if the narrative turns to Harden has more weapons than Kawhi.

    Good, now Skip can say " Kawhi should run away with MVP, because Harden has way more help than him".

    He's too clever for that. What he's now saying is that the Thunder played the Rockets closer than the Spurs have (so far) so that proves that Westbrook is indeed the MVP.

    Yep, he said it today. Maybe there is a clip of it but that is what he'll be going with.

    Not only does James have more helpers, he also unlocked infinite energy, so now whoever the oppositional focal point is gets tired while James is always fresh as a daisy.

    Harden has all them snipers and all star like Ariza and now they have Dekker back!

    Meanwhile Kawhi is MVP because last night showed he is doing it all himself playing with corpses of 30+ year olds

    Meanwhile, once again the narrative is not about how Houston won the game but rather about the demise of the Spurs...just like the demise of Westbrook (not OKC...).

    Next it will be Curry/Durant do not have enough help. Next Next it will be LeBron/Kyrie do not have enough help. Harden and the Rockets are making all their opponents not having enough help!

    Harden and a bunch of role players is now the WC all star team, he just has too much help. Poor little Kawhi just doesn't have enough support on his 61 win team.

    If Morey brings in Gordon Hayward then Harden will be playing on the modern day Dream Team.

    Rockets fan have all seen what Aldridge can do i.e. Portland and averaging 40+ points against the Rockets, he was unstoppable. I have to wonder how much the heart ailment has affected him mentally even if it is under control. Its hard to kick it up to your max thinking that you are might to go in an arrhythmia while you kick up your heart rate 150+ bpm. I imagine that the older he gets the more that could weight on him.

    It's one thing if James got some perrenial all-stars on his team. They built around him with no real Max-players and it was up to them (James and Dantoni) to create and implement the system. Doing that in the course of less than a year and with basically new squad is testament to the true leadership abilities of James and Coach Dantoni. Hats off to Morey and Les allowing the freedom and trust in Dantoni to implement his vision freely. Thus, allowing everyone's strengths to flourish. This narrative of James got help completely disregards the work it took to put the team together after a disappointing season prior. I'm complete.
