    Very interesting game. I thought the Spurs needed Manu or Patty Mills to look for their own shot more, they were too unselfish. Warriors D was very good, but at times, the Spurs need to have someone in their back court take some riskier shots.

    David West had a throwback game to his New Orleans days

    I can't believe there is even a debate if Westbrook should be MVP.

    I agree. I really never thought anyone would challenge the Big O's record. It's sort of like 100 points in a game. I really thought it was untouchable.

    I personally think Lebron should get it every year but they try to spread the award around...

    That being said Westbrook should be the MVP. He went beastmode the whole year AND made the Thunder somewhat relevant this year.

    Whilst what Westbrook has done this year has been incredible, I don't think its a certainty that he gets the MVP. There is so much debate on what should be the criteria - is it the best player for the season, or the leader of his team to a great season, plus other considerations.

    I have never been a Harden fan, but Coach D'Antonio has changed his game this year and he has benefitted massively from his system.
    I agree that Lebron should be there most years, but don't think he deserves it this year. Too many games where he should have taken over against lesser teams and they lost, plus I hate the resting.
    Kawhi should also get more consideration, but can't see it being anyone other than Harden or Russ

    Yes Kawhi should get more consideration considering his team does have the second best record in the league.

    Look at Hardens supporting cast then look at Westbrooks. Both are nothing to brag about but Hardens team has more firepower.

    Westbrooks team should have been given the death knell once KD flew the coop but they didn't. He rose up to the occasion and delivered all year long.

    If Harden does win I won't be shocked though. I see it being really close in the voting.

    He's good but averaging 5.4 assists a game when the leader was averaging 11.2? There must have been a slow news day to come up with these stat sheets.

    I don't necessarily support violence but man do I miss watching NBA players get socked. Mostly because they are the worst fights to see and it's entertaining to watch tall-ass men not knowing how to punch. But yea, now players push someone and it's viewed as a "fight" and they get suspended, fined, lose custody of their kids etc...

    aaaaaaaaaand no one cares...

    If you're 18th and 15th in a statistical category claiming to be in the "TOP 20 IN FIVE OF THEM" no one cares. Be in the top 5 in those categories and we can talk...
