Triple-dub with 38 pts says yes. Oh and he played defense in the 2nd half on a nationally televised game.
All in one week: Kashi takes MVP away from Harden WB takes MVP away from Kashi Popovich gets in on taking MVP from Kashi Lebron won't let MVP go Harden takes MVP from Lebron For such a dorky looking dude, MVP sure gets around
Since we are using the same logic as the KL thread, hell yes! Not only that, but "he's been doing this all season"
I don't see how LeBron can win it over Harden now. It's officially down to Harden/Westbrook/Clawifi Leopard
I don't understand the fascination with the MVP. Does Harden deserve it? Yes. Would he get my (totally unbiased, of course) vote? Yes. Would it be cool if he won? Sure. Will I be upset if he doesn't get it? Not really. Will I much, much rather pull for the team to do well and go far in the playoffs? Absolutely.
Yeah but as soon as everyone chants MVP Harden starts missing free throws. Start chanting MVB instead?
Did Kawhi just take the MVP from Harden? Did Westbrook just take the MVP from Kawhi? Did Wall just show the world he is MVP? Did harden just take the MVP from LBJ? Isiah Thomas feeling ignored. Conspiracy against midgets...
Having a Rocket win the MVP would be a great achievement, especially when that player didn't even make an All-NBA team last year. To go from what happened last season to having someone on our team win an MVP the very next year would be special. I want Harden to win MVP and I want the Rockets to make noise in the playoffs.
Well say rockets don't get a ring this year, will harden amazing season/hardwork get remembered? There is pride and honor in getting MVP at least once in your NBA career. No casual fan gonna remember harden except dude with a beard/no defense. No one is going to remember 50 years from now harden was runner up to MVP, just beard dude with no defense. Getting MVP will let harden not be forgotten
Did Ryan Anderson just steal all NBA defensive 2nd team from Paul Milsapp? He shut Lebron down in the 4th.
Of course people will remember an MVP. Do you remember the 22 game winning streak? They didn't win a ring, but I am sure everyone remembers it.
