Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[hardens beard]

1982 Moses Malone. Houston Rockets were the 6th seed and won 45 games. 

If I'm not mistaken the players were still voting then. I could be wrong though

Who tf is Russ backup?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

WTF, HOW?????

 

[hardens beard]

Take Russell off and OKC is a 11th or 12th seed. Take Harden off and HOU could be 8th or 9th. Russell is doing way more than Harden is for his squad. Plenty of ex players have come out and said he's the MVP.

Wylin to the max

 

[geno90221]

Harden is a product of the D'Antoni system 

 

[addict4sneakers]

Like I said, Anthony Davis lost $24 Ms last season due to a post season award.

take kawhi off the spurs and that team is a 20W team
for some odd reason, cavs struggle without bron, even with all that talent

 

[nick.]

Beverley
Gordon
Ariza
Anderson
Capela

That team would have a top 10 pick in the draft

 

[Hahahaha]

Hahahahahah, you trolling me? Spurs a playoff team with or without him.


Thunder have a trash squad.

Rockets have a better team. Out of your ****** mind if you disagree.

Don't even half to take him off OKC man. He doesn't average this triple double, the Thunder are fighting with the Suns and Lakers for ping pong balls. 

 

[hardens beard]

The dude is responsible for the most points in NBA history. But if you take him off the team they still an 8 seed. [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]

Hard question to answer, Steph shooting 40 footers like layups was a grand feat

madness

 

[Hahahaha]

Rockets have mad shooters, Thunder have ZERO. Rockets would definitely hang around. D'Antoni can run his offense with shooters like that.

 

[wavycrocket]

Harden def deserves some credit man......

Dantoni too. I mean....LOOK at that roster

 

[ballinsam23]

Tony Parker
Danny Green
Jonathan Simmons
Aldridge
Dwayne Dedmond


LMFAO. That team would win 25 games tops.

 

[MVP]

It's literally tailor made, a bunch of guys who want to shoot 3s. Harden makes it go because of his scoring prowess, but we've literally seen Nash do the same thing as far as being a playmaker and the team being prolific from deep.

 

[Peep Game]

A 6th seed winning less than 50 games has won MVP before?

Take Russell off and OKC is a 11th or 12th seed. Take Harden off and HOU could be 8th or 9th. Russell is doing way more than Harden is for his squad. Plenty of ex players have come out and said he's the MVP.

I had to check the SN to see if this post was made by Dipset General

Harden is having a ridiculous year. Not trying to take anything away from him but let's not act like his team isn't better than the Thunder.

 

[thirdtimearound]

All these dudes eyeing for an MVP trophy while all da real MVPs have their sights set on the championship AKA the real objective. Idk. It just seems real funny to me how the eventual MVP won't get further than CP0 in the playoffs.

Side note: I remember in 2012 Kobe only needed like 40 points over the lottery bound Kings in the last game of the season to clinch the scoring title, but he chose to rest to preserve himself for the playoffs. Are there any other instances of things like that happening?
