I know few on here follow the NBA especially this time of year. But what James Harden is doing right now is among the best runs ever. If you missed highlights of last night at the Warriors, it is worth your time to check the highlights:
Rockets OT W at Warriors
You can hate on him for getting to the FT line too much if you want but you can't deny his shooting ability.

Can’t deny his traveling ability either.

He is doing great things and is the clear cut MVP at this point.
But they won't find success come post season but enjoy the ride, sly.

I thought "traveling" was legal in NBA. But I haven't watched a game since about 1996.

Giannis has a good case for MVP.
Harden is statistically great but I can’t stand watching him.

Do it until the refs call it. I hate his brand of basketball, but there’s no denying he’s on an amazing run and has figured out how to game the system.

As does Davis and probably LeBron.

So your opinion is absolutely invalid on anything NBA related

I think there might be a couple of Jr. High girls on here.

I think back to my HS carreer and playing for the state championship in DeMolay.
All the travels I was called for that I may get away with now.
We lost the state championship and a travel on me was critical --- doing my best Al Bundy.
As a quasi fan of OKC I mourned his lost when he left. That was the beginning of the end.
The Beard can ball and records or not his peers will be willing to pay him very well and that speaks for itself.
Sorry Sly, I think it su*** he is with the Rockets ... wish OKC would have retained him.
Even still he is fun to watch.

OKC wouldn't even let him start. They completely devalued him and the evidence is apparent. Thankfully for James he was freed from the bondage of the Land Thieves.

In fairness he was playing starter minutes his last year there. I also don't think they devalued him but they valued keeping Durant more but we see where that got them...

I think Nikola Jokic should get serious consideration as well...the Nuggets are playing so well this year, and he's putting up some pretty ridiculous all-around #s.

He’s playing great, but they’re not giving the MVP to a guy averaging 19 PPG.

I agree WEF and glad to see you still coming around.
Anybody curious who leads the NBA in 3-Pt %?
I am watching the league's top two MVP candidates go head-to-head tonight as a Christmas gift from my brother-in-law. I love that guy.

True, he would need to get that scoring average up if he ever wanted to win it...
