im okay with harden winning MVP, but lebron definitely wins both eye test and intangibles.

My point exactly! Harden over James in regards to the “eye test?” No way is that true. Harden is a phenomenal player and is having a great year. However, what LeBron is doing this year is absolutely incredible. Forget about this being his 15th season; I’m taking specifically about how he’s kept his team relevant despite all of the injuries, turnover, and drama they’ve experienced throughout the entire season. He’s unbelievable and people take him for granted. Have them switch teams and check the results. Better yet, take each away from their teams and the Rockets would still be competitive. Cleveland….not so much. LeBron is the MVP.

I definitely understand where you’re coming from, but you also didn’t mention LeBron is shooting 10% better from the field, and has a better fg% from 3. For a scorer like James Harden thats gotta be a factor. In terms of value, Houston would be a playoff team without Harden, Cleveland wouldn’t win 35 games without LeBron. I think James Harden has done everything he can to win the MVP this year, and he probably deserves it. But at this point I feel like everyone is looking to give it to anyone but LeBron every year. He got snubbed losing to Derek Rose, and now he’s having one of his best seasons ever and everyone wants to count him out because someone else is having a great year. Harden is by no means a clear favorite in every category listed above, and no one even talks about a huge game or streak from LeBron anymore because its an expectation. He’s been the best player in the league every year since his third or fourth year and its sad for me to see him get no little to no credit for posting historic numbers on a hobbled and less than average team at 33 years old. Really, I agree that its probably Harden this year, I just wish the media and general public gave LeBron the respect he deserves, or at least didn’t write him off the minute someone else starts having a really good year.

Right, Steve Nash set the precedent(s) for winning the MVP award running essentially the same offense for consecutive years.

I get what you’re saying, but aside from a slight disparity in VORP Harden dominates in most of the other statistical areas. In particular, James’ d-rating has been atrocious this season.

This sounds very biased. if you’re basing it off the eye test how can someone in there right mind think that James Harden looks like a better player on the court then Lebron James? You also stated that Lebron has a VORP higher than Harden’s… and i’m pretty sure the MVP award stands for the most ‘Most Valuable Player’. Lebron’s 4 inches taller and 30-40 pounds heavier but thats not something you can hold against a player to create an argument for another!

Thank you, Mike. Harden is averaging 30/9/5 on probable 65 win team. If LeBron was doing that there wouldn’t even be a conversation on who the MVP is. It’s tiring to see the lengths people will go through to give it to anyone but Harden.
