It's only the start of the season but with the way our beloved Harden is playing right now, I'd say he's a real candidate for both Most Improved and MVP. What do you guys think?
he won't get MIP, MIP is more about players playing better than they were considered capable of, he was given a max contract extension before the season started (is it really possible for someone on a max contract to play so much better than expected to be MIP?)
If his averages by the end of the season jump to what he has now, as unlikely as that'll be, he sure as hell has a shot at MIP.
