na kawhi is our defensive anchor just duncan is what we called our stability of the defense
What?

Duncan is your defensive anchor, changing the title of his role isn't going to change that. Yall had a top 5 defense when Kawhi was out, that's because your anchor was still holding everything together.
we are far more worse without kawhi then duncan thats been proven and pop already acknowledges kawhi is our best defensive player
Like I said above, when Kawhi was out yall were still a top 5 defensive team. Regardless whether or not Pop recognizes Kawhi as your best defensive player, that bares little significance on the DPOY ballot.
he takes over games completely he guards the best player on each team and puts up the points too

what duncan is doing at his age is :mindblown: regardless tho thats my GOAT PF :myman:
Yeah that's cool and all, but having Duncan on his team lowers his chances significantly - vice versa.

I'd have Draymond, Davis, Duncan, DeAndre and Gasol ahead of Kawhi. shyt probably even Ariza deserves to be ahead of him too.

I guess Mark Jackson seen that Hannah Storm Face To Face episode last night with Steph and Steve Kerr and caught feelings.

Mark Jackson just being OBJECTIVE and taking all the players surroundings into account.

I'm a huge Steph fan, and even I have harden as mvp.

Who else good has he been playing with?

Steph has another all star/best shooter in the game, the sixth man of the year/most improved player, two elite centers, andre Iguadola and he gets a million picks to really be effective.

Harden is carring Houston single handedly off ISOs:wow:

Anyone that actually watches these games can see this clear as day. The basketball iq of this forum is pretty poor honestly.

I wonder what mental gymastics Harden haters like @Walt and @Gil Scott-Heroin will do in their heads to explain why Harden is still trash in their minds...:smh:

The funny thing is - if Harden wasn't on your team - you'd despise him like you do Chris Paul. Throwing this 'basketball IQ deficiency' against the wall hoping it sticks, in a disingenuous bid to cover up your stannery is pathetic.

What about that statement don't you like? :what:

Dwight has missed most of the season, who else on Houston do you have to really worry about


He's lowkey saying he wants Steph to win. But he's being an unbiased analyst.

Never liked mark Jackson before during or after he was gs coach. When steph wins mvp he should say he learned more from Kerr's championship pedigree than Jacksons pep talks and motivational speeches :pacspit:

James Harden has Houston near the top of the Western Conference with his second best player injured most of the season. That's VERY impressive. Not to mention that Harden has consistently been the one to win the games for Houston late 4th quarter/overtime at least 20 times this season.

The way I see it is if you remove Steph from the Warriors they still make the playoffs in the 7th or 8th seed. If you remove Harden from the Rockets they struggle to win 35 games.

Steph is the engine for GS, but with Harden, he's the whole vehicle. I think you gotta watch a lot of Houston games to see just how much he's straight up carrying that squad on his back.

This is nonsense and there is no way of proving rather you are right or wrong.

none of you thought the rockets could be as high as the 2 seed even WITH d12, so don't front on harden now that they have done it without him AND Terrance Jones for most of the year. hardens impact on the rockets is just as great as Currys on the Warriors.


Reality exceeding your expectations does not = a recipe for winning MVP
How can you give the mvp to a low ass seed? These dudes forget that real easily.
