    Agree. KD shouldn't have a realistic chance.

    Harden is a lock, tbh..he has everything working for him, including narrative, which is arguably the most important factor..

    Houston is 40-18, despite not having a single player that has ever been an All-Star..also, they only have 1 player shooting above 40% from 3 IIRC..they have the 26th ranked bench(or somewhere around there), too, compared to the Spurs' 2nd ranked unit..also, while I believe D'Antoni is underrated and has been done a disservice by joining 2 overrated franchises with horrible front offices(Knicks and Lakers), he's still viewed as a gimmick coach by most media members..on the other side, Pop is seen as a coaching God that makes magic with every player he touches

    If Kawhi beats Lebron Warriors once and the last houston game, Kawhi gets it.

    I don't think the Houston game will matter(maybe if Harden completely collapses in that game, I suppose), but I'll believe in Kawhi's chances if the Spurs beat the Warriors again(since nobody really thinks the 1st game was significant, for obvious reasons)..if SA beats Golden State and Kawhi dominates, the hype will begin IMO..

    Agreed...for Kawhi to really have a legitimate shot at MVP, he'll need to have huge statement games against GS/Cleveland. Otherwise Harden or LeBron will win it.

    I still think LeBron will get credit for last year's playoffs/Finals. Media will be thinking "Remember when we gave Curry MVP last year and then LeBron showed he was still the best player in the league?"...that will help his chances.

    ^^The Love injury will help Lebron's case, if the Cavs continue to win at a high rate(which they will, since Love's impact during the RS isn't as high as perceived)..

    Im glad Kawhi isnt being considered because MVP is never about "value" to a team. Its about stats. If it were really Most Valuable Player, Kawhi should win easily. Other than players coached by Phil Jackson, players with gaudy numbers dont win les because the rest of the team isnt involved.

    LeBron also has very little years, if any, at this level.

    We've all heard, LeBron SHOULD get it every year. With his MVP years short, he's the front runner this year, IMO.

    As I said in previous threads, the fact that the MVP won't be announced until after the season is over takes a lot of the fun and drama out of it. Now its just an award and won't really matter too much if the MVP's team didn't win it all. Before it wratched up the pressure (and envy) for some good theater.

    This cant be truer. It definitely takes a lot drama snd narratives out of it. Like Curry's first-ever unanimous MVP playing for the "best" regular season team in history and didnt ring

    The NBA doesn't want there league / player to look bad so giving it out after the season saves some face if that player gets loses in the playoffs after receiving the award.

    Imho, they want to make that "awards" show to make even more money, without realizing that fans will give zero s to those awards once the season is over. I expect that to last 2 or 3 years.

    Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine
    4m Harden and Westbrook are the consensus MVP faves, but no one out West was finer in Trimester 2 than Kawhi Leonard -> espn.com/blog/marc-stei…

    Van Gundy making his case for Kawhi as MVP on national television right now, and Mark Jackson immediately shoots the notion down like a dumbass.
