    OKC...3 MVPs, no title...
    Worse choke ever over an era??

    Some MLB dynasties have had multiple HOFers...Cubs of 60s come to mind w Santo, Banks, Williams, Jenkins...

    Vikings football have had 6 plus HOFers on the field at a time and nothing to show....

                      OKC had more talent then GSW- Westbrook/Durant/harden — curry/klay/green - People still don’t think coaching and management matters?
                      JJ enough with the nonsense man - why didn’t cavs go 8-0 in 2015 and 2016? Child please

                        The MVP is just being passed around by the NBA to guys with different shoe company deals to grow the game.

                        Nike, under armor, jordan brand, adidas

                              Later teams had multiple as well

                              Doleman

                              Gary Zimmermann mixed in there late 80s/early 90s pre Moss era, Steve Hutchenson post Moss
                              AP of course

                              QB'd by:
                              Favre/ Moon/ Cunningham (assuming he gets a bust soon)

                              Nothing to show for it....cant think of another franchise in NFL with that failure. Buffalo w Kelly, Thomas, Reed, Smith, Levy would be about it, but that's about it.....

                              Dolphins w Marino never had 4 or more I don't think.

                              NHL hasn't really had any dynasties that failed like OKC has in NBA

                                Harden was not the same player when he was with okc.

                                Still a horrible move to trade him but I don't think you can say the players underachieved. The front office screwed them over.

                                      Harden is nothing more then a regular season champ- he’s one of the reason Houston didn’t win this year vs GSW - and there’s no way harden can put up those numbers being the 3rd option in OKC behind Durant/Westbrook

                                        Guys all in their early 20's with Scott Brooks as their coach made it to the Finals and lost to the Heat....think their run was just fine.

                                          Harden is a different player compared to his OKC days, but his lack of defense makes it hard to put him high.

                                              So you believe Harden didn't try this playoff?
                                              People just brings up past too much.
                                              Harden couldn't beat KD and Curry by himself just as it was difficult for Curry and Klay to beat LeBron and Kyrie by themselves.

                                                I got all of my pain and suffering out of the way two years ago when Durant left.

                                                OKC was on the verge of winning a title and Durant leaving slammed the door shut and effectively ruined the league guaranteeing the Warriors would won for the foreseeable future.

                                                OKC could have one a title if they didn’t have huge injuries.

                                                One year Westbrook misses the playoffs and another year KD got injured and missed he playoffs. I think they could have won the year Westbrook got hurt.

                                                The did something that will never be done again and couldn’t win it. This makes me feel like they’ll never win a title. Three straight MVPs and nothing. WTF

                                                  OKC was on the verge of winning a title and Durant leaving slammed the door shut and effectively ruined the league guaranteeing the Warriors would won for the foreseeable future.

                                                  OKC could have one a title if they didn’t have huge injuries.

                                                  One year Westbrook misses the playoffs and another year KD got injured and missed he playoffs. I think they could have won the year Westbrook got hurt.

                                                  The did something that will never be done again and couldn’t win it. This makes me feel like they’ll never win a title. Three straight MVPs and nothing. WTF
                                                  Would never win in OKC- child please -

                                                    Since when did the Vikings ever have six MVPs in the 1998 season I assume you're talking about.
