LeBron fans question why James Harden won MVP over him
Well, the answer to this question is obvious, but everybody is entitled to their debate. This NBA season saw LeBron James continue to be stellar, but the Cleveland Cavaliers continually got worse. The annual mid-season trade wasn’t enough to change it this time, either. However, LeBron did manage to get an otherwise mediocre Cavs team to 50 wins and to the NBA Finals for a fourth straight time.
James Harden, on the other hand, was finally able to put it together, landing Chris Paul as his right-hand man. Some said it would never work, but the Houston Rockets won 65 games. In the playoffs, they went to the Conference Finals and took the Warriors to 7. However, the Game 7 wasn’t enough for Harden and the Rockets to finally push through.
LeBron James got back to the NBA Finals, but the Cavs nearly lost to both the Pacers and Celtics. When they got to the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors swept Cleveland, in their only sweep of the postseason. But, LeBron’s fans showed the head-to-head stats, where LeBron beat Harden in every category.
