Harden is carrying that drat team. MVP to me is, who has the biggest impact to a team if they weren't there. How many games is Houston winning without Harden?

Kyle Korver is definitely going to get MVP votes this year and I'm excited by it.

If you ignore the conventional 'best player on best team' line of thought, then it's probably a close race between Harden and Davis, with Harden leading by a bit.

If houston finishes top 4 i think Harden might since Howard will miss half the season. Probably Steph though. Whats the criteria for least favorite? I love watching Lebron play cause i love basketball, but I hate him.

Counterpoint: everyone who works at Grantland is a huge fuckin' nerd and not at all qualified to judge who is cool and who isn't. As evidenced by the fact that they recorded a podcast with a 'Not Cool Power Rankings' that lasted for forty minutes.

It's going to be Curry, there's a difference between who "should" win and who will win based on decades of how sports writers vote on these things. Anthony Davis isn't sniffing the top 3 votes for MVP. He could have the greatest season ever outside of Wilt and it doesn't matter because his team isn't even in the playoffs.

Davis will probably get third but not many people are voting him #1. I think Curry would be my vote because of his numbers and how crisp that GSW offense runs in general with him at the helm.

Kevin Durant is sitting tonight and Mo Williams is starting for Charlotte, so Russell Westbrook is probably going for 50,000 points

The Warriors splits with Curry on/off the floor are crazy. He's not carrying the team the same way as Harden is carrying HOU, but he's the reason they're so good. Their offense generally looks like poo poo without him.

So how hosed up is Durant's foot? Is he going to gently caress himself up permanently by playing? Big dudes that have foot problems they don't take care of have a scary track record.

I have a sad feeling that he is going to gently caress it up by playing because he's dumb. All athletes are dumb about injuries and thats why they shouldn't have any say in if they get to play.

Us Rockets fans had a good freakout last night which resulted in several posts calling Jason Terry names and me whining about Ariza. Read a normal fan board after a bad loss and like every other person is calling for everyone to be fired and quitting the fandom forever.

Down three of your top six and lose the Clippers by five in a close game? Fire/trade everyone, it was winnable.

Anthony Davis just went to the locker room after destroying his shoulder (again) when jumping into Whiteside's chest. He looked very much in pain and couldn't even get into the next possession.
