Could James Harden Make A Run At MVP

[darkhat]

Fukkin guy isn't letting up so far

Given only two fukkin games

If he carries this fukkin houston team who the fuk knows

If he keeps dropping big points and winning

[milwaukee mike]

anyone on harden to win the scoring title?

would've been part of the field at huge odds?

[darkhat]

I know Mike

Good future bet

I don't remember seeing him listed early on

Ill give you 10 to 1 that he doesn't for a max of 1 point please post up in this thread.

[LordVodka]

I bet you OKC is kicking themselves in the ass right now. This guy's potential wasn't being used at all by them.

[Dirty Sanchez]

Sounds like a few guys want to knob James Harden

[daneblazer]

Let's see what he does once teams start focusing on him and if he and Lin can hold up for an entire year. He doesn't have a Westbrook or Durant anymore. Teams are going to start doubling him.

Valid point

Others might fukkin think this guy had to split the ball with those two

He was forced to come off the fukkin bench

True test I guess will be to wait a month or so and see what he does

I have a feeling he's gonna do well

Guy is motivated

[Chi_archie]

he won't sustain this

defenses will adjust

[k13]

Take 25-30 shots a game and you'll win scoring titles even if you suck.

That's how Jordan won them all.

[Finch Dinero]

LeBron isn't letting anyone win MVP for the next few years

[brainfreeze0]

LeBron isn't letting anyone win MVP for the next few years

Chris Paul has a chance against Lebron.

[hels]

Salary Cap is a bitch

[sando]

MVP - unlikely
Scoring title - absolutely!

Ok i have harden to win scoring title
1 point to win 10

this is the smallest bet i have ever made

[MFDoom013]

I love Harden, but he will slow down. I think it was a bad move by OKC in the short term. They were a legit title contender with him, and now I'm not convinced. Martin is nice, but Harden was a clutch killer and OKC's best facilitator, something Martin doesn't do. I guess only time will tell if it pays off in the long term. Do they extend Martin past this season? Why pay him if they wouldn't pay Harden? Will Lamb develop into a quality player? Who do they draft with the acquired picks?

all in all I thought it was a mistake by OKC to deal the guy.

Besides being the best player in the league

[Grits n' Gravy]

Not a chance. Guy is a phenomenal player but not winning MVP or scoring title.

Mil Mike- you can have 10-1 for 50 points on scoring title.

[Ghenghis Kahn]

all i know is he is putting up some huge numbers.

he's probably glad he's starting.

who gives a fukk about championship when you are having fun balling.

[mynameismud]

he's trying to show hes worth the 80mil. so far so good.

[therealdealau]

People banging on about Hardens "wasted" opportunity in OKC are annoying. Do you think Harden is going to get that amount of volume and ball with Durant and Westbrook on the side? No.

Thx for the offer, i'll take it

Confirm in this thread and we'll settle after the season

[Ernie Mccracken]

Relax. Guy is Manu Ginobli, not Kobe or Lebron.

fixed

[sportsfanatic]

rockets were projected to get around 33 wins this year so if harden gets them the 8th seed, he definitely has a shot at MVP

Deal. Ship points either way whenever season ends.

Yah possible if they get a good seed

I guess i meant more scoring title

I think it is possible

[Goat Milk]

Harden will never win an MVP in his career

He had 2 great great games to start the year. The opposing team had no legit perimeter defender in those 2 games. Let's see what he does when he goes against the toughest 2 guards in the league. He won't be scoring 40 or even 30.

You have to finish with a top 5 record in the NBA in today's game if you want to win MVP. That's the way it is.

D wade put up 30 ppg, 7.5 assists, 5 boards, over 2 steals and over 1 block a game in one of the best seasons in NBA history and he did not win MVP. Why? Because his team was average.

Good point

Need to be an elite team

If you don't contend for a title prolly almost impossible

[jsmithj88]

nash won 2 mvps when kobe went banannas scoring 35ppg and leading a god awful lakers team to the playoffs
so i doubt harden is gonna be winning an mvp
y r we even talking about mvp, the dude had 2 games as a starter

[frizzelli]

Ok i have harden to win scoring title

Booked

[keyboarding]

Made a wager with a buddy for $50 that Harden will not win the scoring title. Only had to give him 5-1, too.

[easyliving]

people overreacting to first 2 games of the season against 2 of the shittiest defenses in the league. They got no one else that can score Asik had 19 rebounds and 0 points the other night for God sake. Rockets won't even make the playoffs as the west loaded

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

Take 25-30 shots a game and you'll win scoring titles even if you suck.

That's how Jordan won them all.

Yea since his career fg% was 49%
