    Gaining steam where? Everywhere I look his MVP chances are being placed in a coffin, and people are ready to start the burial process.

    The media is going against decades of history and precedent. It's a shame.

    Well, looks like it's Houston vs the world again. The media spin is crazy. The best thing to do is not care anymore, and get ready for the postseason.

    I mean if we roast OKC, the media is gonna be like,"Oh Harden had the better team because his team has actual shooters." The only satisfaction we'd get would be beating the Thunder and that's about it.

    It must be hard for Harden to root for a friend that is going for the same award. That's brotherly love.

    I am really tired of this never been done crap. Yeah, freaking big deal, we are talking about 2 more rebs. It's never been done by a single player because that 2 extra rebs are not vital. I am sure Jordan, Magic, or others could have done this crap if they purposedly stole rebs from his teammates over winning.

    Yes, he is an amazing player with never-seen ability, but ... freaking 6th seed (only a couple of games ahead of the 7th seed) with so many more shot attempts. Not as much as a big deal if they are at the 2nd or 3r seed with 55+ wins.

    This makes no sense.

    Westbrook is getting pushed hard because the race is over. He has won.

    Harden having the edge for ~70-75 games and losing to Westbrook because of a 2 week surge at the end of the season shows that this was pretty much always Westbrook's award.

    2015 - more wins = mvp

    2017 - more wins = no mvp

    If Harden loses he should hold a press conference, don't take any questions, and say this.

    "First of all thanks for coming. I'll start out by saying congratulations to my good friend, he had an amazing season. In 2015 I didn't win MVP because I didn't win enough and in 2017 I've lost because my team won too much. When you all figure it out, let me know. Again, thanks for coming."

    It's over: **** the media, **** KD (for making fans fawn over Westbrook), and **** anyone who values stat padding over winning. Can't wait for Rockets to smack them in the first round, god, I hope we sweep them!

    When Harden lost the mvp in 2015, he was still immature and didn't know how to handle the losing of something he thought he deserved. He should of learned a lot from that experience. I hope this time he will be more mature and instead of talking, he will show the world with his actions that he is the true mvp when he faces westbrook. Just like Olajuwon did against Robinson

    Harden should just look to destroy OKC in the playoffs....there's not much more he could've done this season in order to win the award.
