    Maybe if you got overlooked five consecutive years, you would.

    Lebron should have 15 MVPs by now.

    Harden's the clear MVP. I'd be surprised if more than 10% of the dumbfucks that get a vote pick James.

    MVP is based upon performance not potential. In a playoff series I'd take James. Harden has had the better season, whether you look at stats, wins, leadership, or anything else (including defense haha).

    You like Mitchell over Simmons?

    Any idea who is favored?

    Simmons is favored. He will surpass Mitchell in a few years, but today Mitchell is the complete package whereas Simmons isn't.

    Capela has gotten stronger ...so a natural progression. But he was good already.

    Dinwiddie was cut by the Pistons because he was awful. Now he's perceived as an NBA starting pg that just happens to be a sub at the moment.

    What player wouldn't? Anyone of the top guys who's says differently is just faking modesty. Ya'll always complain you want honesty from these dudes then when dude gives a honest answer, that 100% correct btw. Then you mad at him.

    Just as when Jordan was in league it a total joke anytime anyone other than bron wins it. Best player who drags average teams on his back is clearly the MVP every year.

    People forget, Oladipo was a solid player in Orlando. Westbrook held him back in OKC -he never got the ball.

    Wins. Correct.
    Pretty much the rest of your statement is suspect.
    The old switch LBJ/Harden teams and what do you think happens?
    Harden melts down trying to lift that roster and fights for a playoff spot in the weak ass East.
    Hou w/LeCrybaby? Simply a better team and scary to even a healthy GS.

    Herd did a great job breaking down some stats regarding these 2.
    Last year triple/doubles were all everything with Russ.
    This year, LeBron has like 16. Harden 4.
    LBJ.ZERO missed games.
    Harden, 9.

    I agree with Giant. LBJ should have 12-14 MVPs. Voters have to DIG DEEP every year to rationalize other candidates.
    Shit been going on forever.
    Love Nash. 2 MVPs?? NFW.

    Would Tim Duncan ever have said that? No chance

    Even previous greats like Jordan or magic who believed they deserved it wouldn't say those things publicly

    Lebrons entourage consisting of idiots like maverick carter have crippled his public image from the start

    Shades. You get it right?
    LeCrybaby has been blown, ass kissed and told he is the greatest thing going from everybody he met from the time he was 12 years old.
    Absolutely no fuggin` way the guy doesn`t have some serious deep rooted issues.
    I have gone back and forth about thinking he is a super douche ( the "decision" to me was the worst) to giving him a break and just enjoying what he is doing on the court.

    Duncan a class act. Magic, who I would argue is the first player I would choose to start a team, was a whore chasing scumbag off the court.
    MJ. Degenerate gambler. If MJ played in the social media circus LeBron does, who knows the shit that would have come out?

    Dom, mj did something no other nba star had done before him. He played the media politics game behind closed doors and they rewarded him by turning blind eyes

    He was shrewd enough to do what guys like kobe, tiger, lebron etc had never even dreamed of doing.

    He would spend hours of his own time to give media reporters and journalists stories or quotes or whatever they wanted to get promoted and in turn they would never trash him

    Jordan probably did more scumbag things than any of the elite stars but he played the game and won. Both on and off the court

    Without Lebron Cavs are a lottery team so he isn't lying.
    I'm sick of athletes being fake humble.

    He did campaign. He gave an elaborate answer that reeked of desperation.

    He's a FA this summer, and he's maybe not in such high demand like he was a season ago so that's playing on his mind. Any team that wants to bring in a max contract player typically has to get rid of something.

    Coach Lue returns to the team today, which brings up another point: MVPs don't drive their coach to the brink of a cardiac arrest.
