    Houston //////////////// Boston

    Harden (Star) //////// Irving (Star)
    CP3 (Star) ///////////// Horford (Star....many Houston fans wanted Horford to be the 2nd or 3rd star)

    E Gordon //////////////// Marcus Smart
    Ryan Anderson ///////Marcus Morris
    Capela ///////////////////// Aron Baynes
    Nene //////////////////////// Jaylan Brown
    PJ Tucker ///////////////// Tatum
    Ariza ///////////////////////// Terry Rozier
    Mbah a Moute ////////// Larkin

    Similar rosters. Difference is the Celtics have more of a cake walk playing in the East.

    THIS.

    Horford is the MVP of the Celtics so far. Kyrie wasn't impressive at all so far.

    Look man they're just going to give it to whomever they want. F this clown league. I just want to see them do well and hopefully win the ship. The NBA is a menstrual show that's shown no legitimacy.

    At this point Harden actually winning it would amaze me. They’ll find a candidate and ram it down our throats like the did the triple double thing.

    I’m fine with harden not getting the mvp. I prefer having him rested and fresh for the playoffs.
    I’m fine with him not getting more rebounds or getting less assists or points.


    Last year it drained him trying to do so much.
    He also tried to get more rebounds or do more because we needed him but also because he wanted to get the mvp.
    Ppl were giving it to Russell even before the all star game. N like always th media focused more on Russell than harden.

    I think he seems to not care this year as much. He is just doing his stuff. Still some days he gets tired or seems like he isn’t into the game. Specially when the refs aren’t calling anything. But that’s with Chris out. Now that he is in if that happens harden can just rest some and let Chris dictate the tempo.

    Like I said. I just want him to not care about the mvp and show everything during the playoffs. Even if he isn’t the leader on any stats we know who he is. But he is better than he has shown in the playoffs. Now he has help so he doesn’t have to be drained by the second round or the first playoff series.


    Just keep playing your game Harden.

    Btw. Good win tonight against the grizz. They made a couple runs back but we responded every time

    Yes, a true MVP would absolutely be able to achieve that. Unfortunately, we have plenty of experience that shows Harden exerts too much into the regular season year after year but has nothing left towards the end.

    It's a regular season award and he's always coming in second. Instead of focusing on a 82 game stretch where they'll most likely give it to someone else, why not go on a 16 game tear in the playoffs where they have to give you the (Finals) MVP.

    Horford isn’t better than Kyrie, but he has probably been more important to their success than Kyrie has up until this point...a lot of Celtic fans have been saying the same thing
