That's well and good but I'm telling you that if you weren't a GS fan you would probably have Harden as your MVP. Mark Jackson is an analyst who see's what Harden has had to deal with the season. The Rockets are sitting with the 3rd best record in the entire league despite Howard missing 40 games, TJones, Beverley, and D-Mo missing 10+ games. Harden is putting up great numbers with defense geared to stop HIM and only HIM not his backcourt mate capable of dropping 37 in one quarter. I understand your argument for best player on the best team should win but that hasn't been the case in EVERY MVP voting.

Iverson wasn't the best player on the best team when he won his MVP right off the top of my head. But he carried his team all year to heights no one saw coming and I know GS wasn't picked to be a top 4 seed but AI and Harden had or have significantly less to work with than Steph Curry has.
Nah, if any team was on pace to get 68 wins and it was the month of April I'd give it to whoever was the best player on that team regardless.

Curry or Harden. Can't go wrong. I've only seen a handful of Rockets games this season, but Harden continues to impress. You know how you think every Curry 3 is going in? Same shyt for Harden, I think every time he puts his head down he's getting that basket or drawing a foul. Both can deliver when their teams really need it.

Personally if both guys are playing their best, I like watching Curry cook more.
