I totally agree with you. I’m not much on +/- either. There are other metrics that i find more meaningful.
Since coming back from his hamstring injury, James Harden has done the following: Record: 13-1 Beat Golden State Beat LeBron by 32 points in Cleveland Got the first ever 60 point triple double in NBA History
LeBron and the Cavs have had a 7-14 stretch and a 3-7 stretch. Harden 40+ point games: 8 LeBron 40+ point games: 1

Doris Burke on ESPN just tried to promote Westbrook as being MVP...... Holy fff you shouldn’t be on TV.
OKC has three all stars....... and only 7 games above 500 while Westbrook has one of the worst EFG%’s in the league. He’s the epitome of a black hole..
Heard her spewing that poison about 3 mins into this Warriors/Portland game. She is the witch pushing LeBron over Harden earlier in the season; Just before the wheels came off the Cavs bus. Hopefully she just jinxed the Thunder.
move over a little bit Max Kellerman and make some room for Doris Burke...she now belongs in the clown category
All these media clowns talking out their butts smh. I’ll say one thing that’s 100% sure. If Harden doesn’t win the MVP this year he’s seriously never gonna win it.
I wish I was...she wanted to see how OKC did in the 2nd half of the season, but she said to not count out Russell Westbrook for MVP because he’s nearly averaging a triple double
especially coming from her...how she could say something that dumb on national TV is just shocking to me that’s something I expect from the likes of of a Skip Bayless, not Doris
Do you think saying a player deserves consideration is the same thing as promoting them as being the MVP? Even if you disagree, best to fairly represent what they said rather then turn it into something even more disagreeable.
I kind of imagine it goes like this: Espn Coorporate heads above her: “Hey Doris, mention something today about Westbrook and triple doubles and mention his name for MVP. That should get the buzz going among casual viewers and those who know nothing beyond stats. Do that and we’ll have a fat bonus check coming your way” Doris: “Say no more.” That’s what I’d like to believe happened. I’d hate to believe Doris legitimately believes what she’s saying.
