In my opinion Harden should have 4 MVP awards. 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2019

"How LeBron dominates the NBA in 2010s and could've won more MVP's award"
Correction; should’ve won more(not a LeBron fan)
Pick any team in the playoffs and they are a serious contender in the 90s
“Dominates the nba” *loses 5 NBA finals*
Top Kek only 1 of those loses was his fault
imagine lebron win all 8 award hahaha
tbh Curry's MVP numbers were due to him playing significantly less minutes than any other MVPs. In fact the lowest minutes played by an MVP ever are '15 curry then '16 curry. Those low numbers were simply cause he blew teams out, still easily deserved the award
Currys per 36 in '15 is 26 and 9 mvp level for sure
True but remember he’s not using team success as a swaying factor you could make a case for Davis, and Harden’s MVP odds in 2015 even though their team success was mediocre compared to Curry’s, but 2016? Not even close in fact 20 games in I truly believe Curry stole that award and ran off with it. No one could even come close to Curry’s historical dominance in 2016, I’d even argue that his “2016” season is a top 3 MVP season of all time behind MJ’s, and SHAQ’s.
He also won due to more emotional reasons
@@jasonmoukala8909 Of course, but '16 Curry dominance is insane.

2019 James Harden was an absolute phenomenon. The dude averaged 36 per GAME!
30p for 32 games streak
Had 61 points twice
Dropped 50+ booms 7 times two of them were back-to-back games!
20 time had a 40+ points!
I know Harden is one of the most hatted players in the league, but even the biggest hatter could not neglect this phenomenal season.
Yeah its so sad knowing that the nba will never appreciate harden
senyon selt
Harden most take it to the next level and win a championship. The NBA will never appreciate him because of his style of playing. So he should force them to do so.
@@abdulmalekrk3693 Yeah but i dont see him winning a championship without a big change occurring to him or his team.

This is not a stats.
I walked you through James Harden scoring in 61 games. With remainder that I didn’t mention assist or steal which considered a good features on Harden.
With q huge reminder that Giannes playing in the East which is the weaker said of the NBA.
If you played in any type of organization basketball you would know who difficult to score 30 points in one night.
@Leland Joseph harden was the only team to take the super team warriors to 7, and could have won without the cp3 injury. So I think those stats perfectly showcase value

Kareem's got a decade's worth of MVPs in this format 😂
exactly
He played his prime in the 70’s so it makes sense
That's why you simply just don't give it to the best player that would be goofy
@SkyH23 personally, the 70s are underrated imo and full of talent. There were stars spread throughout the league, but no dynasties. If I'm not mistaken, Lakers missed the playoffs that year because of the outdated format of team selection. By today's standard, they would've been seeded. If anything it shows how badass Kareem was to win MVP and not make the playoffs. Dude put up 27.7pts 16.9reb 5ast 4.1blks and 1.5 stls
SkyH23 there is still athletes back then anyways but you’re not gonna know about it unless you go and find the footage.
If I’m not mistaken the 70’s besides the 80’s and 90’s also has a vast amount of talented centers and big men
Would be interesting to see this applied to finals MVP where with the exception of Jerry West has always been given to a player on the Winning Team.
Solid list but the 2015 choice is shocking. Instead of Davis or Curry Harden should have won. You make a very good case that Harden should possibly have 3 mvps.
no lebron should have won
Jacoby2k exactly
@@jackbaruffi6256 In 2015? That was the year he regressed in the regular season for his paleo diet. LeBron beasted in the playoffs all alone but in 2015 the regular season was Harden's to lose.
How can you have 3 MVP's without defense? That's really stupid
Nikita Mitchenkov star player defense is so overrated, jordan, kobe, and lebron never actually guarded the other teams best player primarily since it would take away from their offensive production, thats what role players are for
When I heard Anthony Davis, I thought no way he's about to convince me that AD should've won MVP, but then he actually did.

That was shocking, but looks legit in retrospect in context to where AD is and the feats he is pulling off in the playoffs

I don’t know how you only have 60k you go extremely in depth in how players are better than they seem, like last episode when you did the 90’s you gave Charles Barkley and David Robinson credit for their great seasons even though they weren’t talked about as much, Thank for giving me some content for quarantine 👍
Very accurate comment
@Nicholas Garcia yeah fax
@Nicholas Garcia agree
Accurate he deserves at least 5 mil
Darryl Davis no I’m just saying that given Michael, Magic, and other superstars were more talked about and vocal, David Robinson was never a media fan like Tim Duncan and the spurs were, and Charles Barkley is looked at and said “how the hell did that guy win mvp?”I was just saying how those guys need more credit while putting up those stats during a hard era.
1980's?
it's just old era that I don't thimk many would get interested watching although I would love to see this kind of a video
I’m working on it right now 👍 A lot of my subs are older gents. It may not get as many views in general, but I do think a lot of people would enjoy it, so I think it’s worth doing :)
@@jonnyarnett exactly. wish you luck
@@jonnyarnett Respectfully disagree. A video featuring Magic MJ and Bird will be greatly watched. The 80's modernized BBALL as you well know. Look forward to your breakdown.
Miss you posting videos frequently, Qaaman.
I like how unbiased your videos are and how much you really look into the numbers. Ngl I never would have thought about that ad MVP pick toll now. You just earned a sub. Keep up the good work
Analytically Lebron beats Rose, but analytics don’t do Rose justice. His season was one of the few ever I would describe as magical. Dom2k did a video on why he should have won and it did it so much more justice than I can in this comment so I recommend you check it out.
Roses season is becoming so overrated it’s fuckin unreal
Musab Marzouque the same people who cry that context matters are the same people who say Giannis is the mvp despite lebron having a better narrative... roses season was good but holy shit it was no where near lebron, that’s why Lebron spanked him as soon as the playoffs came
CaydeIrving03 chill bro
CaydeIrving03 put rose on Miami and Lebron in Chicago and Rose wins in 5 no cap.
Again, this video isn't the same as dom2k made for the 2011 mvp argument. His points are based on ACTUAL MVP selection criteria, while jonny's vid, is focused on how the MVP each year will be IF it's based on production (stats) and impact on both ends of the floor (defensively and offensively). Lebron had better overall stats and individual impact, while rose had the 'against all odds' narrative edge plus the best team record in the NBA while being the team's best player.
2018 Bron still one of the craziest runs I’ve seen
For real man. As some one who's from Cleveland that shit was insane to watch. He played out of his mind.

love this series
Too bad its not 2059. I guess this is the last one for 10 or so years
I'm glad you mentioned Anthony Davis here. His performance on the Pelicans before Rondo and Cousins goes under the radar nowadays. He had a really impressive series against the Warriors, despite the loss. In my eyes he has been a complete player for much longer than people remember. Hell, he even shared cover athlete status with Steph and Harden on 2K that year.
That 2016 season by Curry is a reason why he is in my top 10. Noone will ever replicate that level of efficiency. He was operating like a video game.
Love that you added in the list at the end for old/new winners at the end. Perfect addition.

I would love to see one about the 80’s as well. I want to know how many mvp thropies Jordan would have 😅
Thanks for this series! :)
Yep, 80s are getting one too! Thanks for supporting my channel :)
Jordan would not win more than 2, Magic, Bird, Kareem, Moses, Dr J
Yes would be a good eaxample of the better player loosing to better teams
If the Bulls werent full of crack heads and actually a decent team he'd have it almost every year. Even the greats at that time admitted in Jordan's rookie season he was the best player they had ever seen and back then players didnt give props like that even if they knew the truth. They werent all as friendly as players today
My bet for the 80's decade MVP would be Bird. I know he only got 3 rings to Magic's 5, but he was always the best player on his team from 1980 onward, which was one of the top two teams for the 80's, while Magic only became the Lakers top dog midway into the decade. Jordan was the better player in the 80's but these were his losing years.
Only disagreements would be 2017 being Harden (efficiency difference is too big for me) and 2019 being Harden as well. Though I agree with LeBron over Harden in 2018.
Also you should use only true shooting instead of FG%. If you want to measure just shooting, then use eFG%.
also he used the to's per game thing in 2017 but westbrook was a really close second place to that trailing by 0.3, and harden was 3rd seed and westbrook was 6th. not even gonna mention the playoffs

You can literally make the reverse argument for the mpg. Harden had to play more minutes, so he could help his team win(which they needed because a few key players on their roster were injured for a big part of the season), ergo he is more valuable than giannis in that perspective, plus imagine playing every single game accumulating those amounts of fatigue and still averaging an otherworldly 36 ppg. For me it isn't a questing Harden deserved the mvp that year
this man hated on harden the whole video. he just dismissed everything harden did and just acted like he was playing like an average player. but when lebron came into the conversation every time he was drooling and couldn’t get up off his knees. i hate the disrespect sm
The amount of durability and stamina it requires to play that many minutes consistently doesn't show up in the box score, so it's easy for a lot of people to underrate. It's the same way people like to criticize Wilt for "needing" 48 minutes a game to average 50 points at 130 possession average. You show me another player in history you could maintain that pace and those minutes for an entire season, in chuck taylors, then we can talk about how easy it is to put up those numbers
Again your just going off of his offensive stats when overall Giannis was just as efficient on less minutes and a much better defender?
@@justincieminski2010 first of all harden averaged more steals and was still a solid defender. There is no way you think defense is more valuable than offense in the regular season.

Giannis does so many things on both ends of the floor and makes them look effortless and unselfish. He really does play like a Superstar role player if you can call him that. I've never once watched him play and perceived him as trying to put up huge numbers, he just does based on energy, length, awareness and hustle.

That 2018 LeBron season was so underrated because Cavs was only 4th place in ECF but that run in playoffs was legendary.
It wasn’t underrated when everyone still over-glorifies it all the time. Yes, individually for LBJ it was very impressive but when considering he went against a bunch of developing kids on weak teams att with virtually 0 AllStars (Bos ECF, the only Superstar in Kyrie injured ffs), Notorious DeplayoffChoker (2nd round), and a bunch of nobodies with one mid caliber AS in Oladipo. Plus adding to that meh run he got swept again in the Finals after only one great individual performance. When you add all of that then the totality of the run isn’t that impressive. I’d take any of Hakeem’s playoffs runs when he was a massive underdog and you know, actually won a championship against way tougher comp all around. Or Kawhi’s actually Legendary 2019 performance against actual comp and superstars and actually winning the title. I’m not expecting LeBron to win against the Warriors that year but at least close one damn game bruh.

Kevin Durant was the best basketball player in the world in 2014 & after he swept Lebron in 2018 until his achilles tear
Lebron was basically the only player on his team in 2018
Ofc the 2018 cavs was ass and golden state was still the best team in the nba🤦🏿♂️
@@monke2457 didnt that team have Korver, Love, Smith, Thompson, Clarkson and Sexton? Sexton may have been the year after but still pretty sure the rest were on that 2018 squad
Gmoneyinc sorry let me just see if korver love Thompson and clarkson beat curry klaus and draymond. Oh wait they don’t
@@robglobal1 The 2018 non-LeBron Cavs was a decent roster, but every GM would've taken the non-KD 2018 Warriors roster over Cleveland's.
You are so Underrated Your vids are the Best
Cant believe you have to wait a whole decade to continue this series
The best player doesn't mean the player with best stats. Most of the time it works but there are cases which you just can't use stats in the BITW convo
True
who said the best player means the best stats? advanced stats aren’t like normal stats because they add more context
@@Z_hri So you really think Anthony Davis was the best player in 2015🤔
@@caglarservili hell no it was immaculate cap
@@Rk-xx1sg That's literally what I'm saying. If you just look at the stats(advanced stats too) you should say ad was the best player but we all know he wasn't.
DO DPOY from 1st season of NBA. I want to know Wilt stats in defence and how good he was
Extremely difficult. Blocks and steals weren't recorded back then let alone all the other advanced defensive stats. On top of that, footage is so limited so you can't really watch many clips to analyze his defense and on top of that, rules were so different that it's tough to compare his defensive impact to players of the modern era. We pretty much just have old people telling us that he was an elite defender and we have no choice but to believe it
Great series
You're way off on 2015. You forget that Curry didn't even get to play in a bunch of fourth quarters because of all the blowout victories his team had. Even look at team impact and how he began to change the game of basketball as a whole. Steph Curry is definitely the MVP of this season. You also for the first time on your list conveniently leave out who led the league in Win Shares and +/-. You also left out minutes per game which would clearly show you just how impressive Steph's numbers actually were that season. Also that Curry was still third in the league in PER & not too far behind AD, despite a huge gap in minutes per game between him and the other two guys in front of him. Was still above AD in total Win Shares despite the gap in minutes per game and a clear leader in WS48. AD was 5th in minutes per game to Curry's 40th in minutes per game. The lowest minutes played of all the players you mentioned on this list and still was 3rd in PER and Win Shares above AD. Not to mention +/-. Also, AD only played 68 games. I don't think there has ever been a player in NBA history who has played in less than 72 games and still won the award IIRC. If you think Westbrook and Giannis were impressive in the limited minutes they both played in their respective MVP season, you have to apply that same logic to Curry in 15 as well. I honestly think that you have a hidden bias that you were not aware of when you were navigating this year because the MVP's this decade were for the most part spot on and you were subconsciously looking to add some controversy. This was not the year to do it on if I'm right and that's indeed the case. Nice vids though man. Cool content and an original idea. Props; Other than the Curry foley in 15.
In 2018 I think Harden keeps the award is also a solid choice considering the fact that LeBron is having arguably his worst defensive season of his career
Dude harden 2018 2019 use the true shooting percentage pls besides u be acting like harden have bad defense🤦♂️
Not really. They almost have the same TS%. Giannis is almost a DPOY.
You speaking facts my man you got everything right
You should do all of the NBA awards from 90’s to 2010’s.
Harden 2015 2017 2018 2019 mvp should all go to him and you know it like harden was the best player for all those year and harden hateds you know I am right you just dont want to say it
what a hater
2017 fk no its westbrook
If he steals d-roses mvp I will cry
he wasn’t the best basketball player in the world in 2011 are you actually surprised
Father Beps it’s sentimental 😔🥺
Shugah Ca!n dude it’s the best player in the world. Not historic or some shit
Prankster Boy bro Ik it’s sad tho
Unfortunately we have to wait 10 years to see this format again😂
Heatles LeBron was amazing. I'm a Heat fan so maybe I am biased. But for all the hate he got for the cramps and Ray Allen "saving his career" with the shot in game 6, man was a force of nature. Playing with a good team let him dominate on defense. You need good teammates to win, which this team had. And his shooting stroke was the best of his career. He got older and wiser, but this was the most explosive and dynamic he ever was, with solid footwork and a solid three point shot
