Almost unbelievable efficiency stats, complete runner of a show that's an elite offense, surrounded by shooters who don't shoot and a coach whose light touch can border on the absent side, absolutely cannot be bothered to play D, either the worst or one of the worst (and my Lord has he been one of the worst this year) defenders on one of the league's worst defenses.

I actually think Harden's numbers are gaudier, his team's definitely better, and he and his team play defense these days. I am most certainly biased, and yeah, James Harden is a more deserving MVP winner this year SO FAR than LeBron James.

It's the assholes in Golden State that I'm worried about, both that they might actually win and that they might *gulp* deserve it more. But there are two of them and also fuck them and that team.
