Voting was finished back in April lol. This has absolutely ZERO effect on his MVP chances.
I know the voting is already over. Just saying, Harden doesn't deserve the award after his stinker last night and especially considering his defensive liabilities. Averaging near 30 pts doesn't mean a thing when you give up 25 every game.
The cavs have lebron in the playoffs, they didn't when they went 4-19...... are you being extra stupid today? Lebron off the cavs = top 3 pick. Kawhai off the Spurs = playoff team
While we're at it let's compare a whole elimination game on the road to the last 4 minutes of a blowout. More moronic logic brought to you by nonp.
The only one with a dunce cap is you. The simple point was that regular-season records don't always translate into the playoffs, which you're either too stupid to grasp or too dishonest to accept.
And FYI LBJ has missed 27 games since his return, and either Kyrie or Love was missing in almost half of them (12). Doesn't sound so impressive now, does it?
Lmao I know you have no response since you just look at boxscores. Kawhai doesn't have the offensive responsibilities of lebron because he isn't even in the same stratosphere when it comes to playmaking and running an offense. Lebron on the Spurs sweeps Memphis especially if old man carter and Wayne selden are guarding him
Oh look, the poseur thinks he can get away with his infantile tantrums by trotting out platitudes about LBJ's "playmaking." And even his kindergarten insult is another trite inanity. Tell us something new, Einstein.
You can engage in your inane and useless hypotheticals all you want. Just three more tutorials for you, since it's clear you're just another one of those data dummies: 1) Kawhi's PER in the Memphis series was 37.3 compared to LBJ's 30.3 against Indiana (that's only 0.1 below your boy's career high, despite carrying a far less offensive workload), not to mention the highest PPS and WS/48 in playoff history, 2) LBJ almost certainly doesn't average 34/9/7 with the Spurs because Pop wouldn't allow any individual player such "offensive responsibilities," and 3) none of these stats captures the wide gap between the two guys in defensive capabilities.
My boy had melo and rose this year. Not sure why you're listing the cavs roster. Well now I know why you have a hard on for Westbrook, you're in love with overrated statpadding chuckers.
I know you're a hapless Knicks fanboy, which probably explains the unintentional entertainment value of your pea-brained efforts.
You really wanna talk "statpadding" after I educated you on another NBA cliche you dug up? Again tell us something new or stop wasting our time. Here's another one for you: the "statpadding" Westbrook's +/- in these playoffs was a whopping 62.8. None of LBJ's in any of his seasons so far comes close to that.
And for gawd's sake it's Kawhi, not Kawhai. At least try to get the spelling of your bete noire right if you wanna keep passing yourself off as a decent armchair critic.
No way the Cavs with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love in the EAST end up with a bottom 3 record. You honestly think that team is somehow worse than the Lakers or Suns? Not even close. I also SERIOUSLY doubt the Spurs make the playoffs. Their top scorer would be LMA, and they would lose both their best defender as well as the dude that carries their offense. It's possible because Pop, but you're saying they'd be better than Memphis, the Thunder, and us with Nurkic.
Don't necessarily disagree with your overall point, Lebron is on another level, but don't think either of those things are true.
It's a stupid hypothetical (if an obviously popular one among know-nothings like him), because every team would play a different system sans their MVP candidate. The fact that the poseur pretends to know what kind of an offense/defense the new team would run when even a veteran coach would struggle to find the right balance shows how little he actually knows about the game.
But yes, I do agree with you that these Cavs would still make the playoffs without LBJ. See my counterpoint above.
