    Had James Harden 4th place:

    Jason Kosmicki - Altitude Sports Network
    Kevin Ding - Bleacher Report
    Marc Berman - New York Post
    Matt Pinto - WWLS/98.1

    Did not have Harden on ballot:

    Chris Haynes - Northeast Ohio Media Group/Cleveland.com (1. Curry 2. LBJ 3. Davis 4. Westbrook 5. CP3)

    Having Harden anyway below 2nd is disgraceful. Its like not having Michael Jordan as a top 5 player on a list

    You should be fired from you job if you are getting paid to write about basketball, and you didn't vote for Harden. You are a moron. Proves it's a popularity contest.

    Apparently it was a mistake from Cavs beat writer for leaving out Harden.

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Was an oversight on my part. I [thought] I voted Harden No. 3 for MVP. My list I posted soon after submitting ballot <a href="http://t.co/OQ8lFMciN7">http://t.co/OQ8lFMciN7</a></p>&mdash; Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) <a href="https://twitter.com/ChrisBHaynes/status/595246863302823937">May 4, 2015</a></blockquote>

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">According to the results, I left James Harden entirely out of MVP Top 5.

    Take it for what it's worth.

    Haha.

    Kevin Ding, a Lin fanatic, displaying his butt hurt in the voting.

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Howard yelled at Harden about D; neither looked out for Lin. My column on Rockets' lack of teamwork even in victory: <a href="http://t.co/HVtWmpDOu7">http://t.co/HVtWmpDOu7</a></p>&mdash; KEVIN DING (@KevinDing) <a href="https://twitter.com/KevinDing/status/460133873293066240">April 26, 2014</a></blockquote>
