    Honestly, 3 out of 4 on a show like Around the Horn is pretty damn good. I don't have a problem with people saying it's close....because it IS. What I have a problem with is people giving it to Curry for completely asinine reasons like, "DID YOU SEE WHAT HE DID TO CHRIS PAUL?!!1!?1!" Harden has had PLENTY of awe-inspiring moments this season, but none of the national media seems to be drooling over them like they do Curry's.

    Sort that with players with at least seven free throws made and seven 3 pointers made and, yes, it's pretty close. Many of those players made less than five 3's.

    Steph Curry and the GSW are lil media darlings and everyone loves to hate the Rockets... no surprise there.

    It is a product of the media. Can't do anything about it ESPN gives the people what they want to hear and not the truth.

    In their eyes Harden is the one trying to steal what is rightfully Curry's.

    If you think that poll is bad image what would happen if Harden wins. The national uproar would be crazy after all the efforts to make Curry the next face of the NBA.

    Thankfully idiots who have time to vote on an ESPN poll don't have real votes for MVP.

    Pretty sure if Kobe Bryant was an option, he would get more votes than Curry at this rate.

    Dallas and San Antonio are not our friends.

    There is no way that graph is legit. Everyone knows the race is so tight right now and its pretty much a split decision between Harden and Curry. That graph shows a dominated poll in the favor of Curry. I would like to see the source, please.

    I don't see how they will be able to go with Curry if Harden ends up as the scoring champ in the #2 seed in the west. I believe we are going to see something special from here on out. Maybe it ends in a month but maybe it ends in two.

    What James Harden has done this year has been incredible. Never in my wildest dreams that he would improve so much. Olympian, All-Star, Scoring Champion, MVP, Finals MVP and NBA champion will surely be a banner year.

    Never underestimate the media hype train. Virtually everybody wants Curry to win. Pretty much depends on who blindly goes with this whole 'best player on best team' thing for an individual award.

    I hope he gets the scoring title if he doesn't win MVP.

    Just wanted to add this little clip I made today. The Beard is a poet. Clear cut MVP with the season, the individual effort and the team wins he's been having.
