    OP has a change in attitude since Game 5 of the ALCS.

    Not a change in behavior tho.

    So you're saying... "HOU is cursed" ??

    ZERO surprise nobody admitted, purposely, HOU was cursed at least on this level... you know, since Beard was screwed-over so dastardly, TWICE.

    again, so Curry was your MVP in 2015 despite playing with green, klay, and barnes while player's MVP Harden single handedly carried the Rockets to 2nd seed?

    and you had WB as MVP last year because he avged 2 more rebounds despite Harden generating 8 more wins than him?

    I've talked raw to you previously, but respect you more since.

    Please respect the fact this thread is about "Harden CAN win MVP".

    Have you heard recent rebuttals regarding that statement? Not even this thread.


    James can win.

    Live reality...

    Going into '15.... Warriors were a 1st Round underdog and loser. Rockets, 1st Round *favorite* and loser.

    Harden's #2 performance without Dwight was, AT WORST, equal surprise to Warriors surging to #1 by ELEVEN games.

    Do you really NOT see that?


    If Warriors only win by 7 games, Harden wins MVP, IMO (and most accounts).

    James can win.

    reality 1: Curry with a ton of help from Klay, Green, Barnes account for those 6 more wins.

    reality 2: NBA Players opinion >>>>>>>>>>> stupid fans like you

    reality 3:

    "Yeah, I think media and guys get too much power to vote on stuff that, quite frankly, I don't think you really know a lot about [or] as much as we know about it," Durant said. "So, yeah, we play against these guys every single night. We battle against these guys. We know what they say on the court. We know how they handle their teammates. We know how they approach the game. And our vote should count. Our opinions should count. Like I said, I don't think you guys know as much as we do, and I don't see why you have more power than we do."

    "You guys really don't know s---," Durant told reporters.

    "When you really think about it, who really knows us players better than our players," said Chris Paul, the president of the NBA players' union. "Not to take away anything from [media members], who get the opportunity to vote on all the different awards, but I think we sort of know each other -- we know who are the guys, who guys like, stuff like that. This is the first year, and I think next year we'll have an opportunity to make it even better."

    reality 4: based on your argument so you agree Harden should have won over WB

    I think Harden had great argument both times.

    Just don't think he was screwed over.

    I hope he does, but that WB fiasco still gives me dry heaves.
    "Harden has had a great MVP caliber year, but the last few games Brody had... omugud historical " :rolleyes:

    All media cares about is "the narrative". There is no story right now with the season so fresh...just numbers to pad into averages.

    They would be swayed more to give it to James if he lands a jetliner in the last month of the regular season rather than watching with their eyes what he does all year.

    It's pretty sad the way things are now.

    But if the Rockets win it all, you can put money that he'll get the MVP right after.

    Brave people these voters are. True keepers of the sport.

    All Harden can do is focus on his damn game and his team, and only worry about the hardware he has control over.

    Well, according to YOU --- I'm just a "stupid fan".

    But that same stupid fan said Harden could've won both times... Yet, you delete that portion for the sake of argument.

    LMAO.. Fraud gets beaten without trying. Stop trolling me.

    Without Kawhi, Curry being merely ok, I think Harden is the ONLY Choice early on in the West.

    I dun know if they consider Irving who has a good record but being in the East. And of course Lebron.
