First Round MVP

[MMM]

Who was your MVP in the first round.

AD looked impressive in his first playoff series despite the sweep
Kyrie was great minus parts of game 3
LeBron was dissenting the Celtics when needed
Can't forget to mention Curry

One final HM could me Jimmy Butler

[SugarHill]

I think it's that boy Curry without question

34/5/7 damn

[ArbitraryWater]

Paul if he comes through and Clips win tonight

[Hit_Em]

Chef Curry

[Cocaine80s]

Curry or Harden

[lilteapot]

Curry, no doubt. He was incredible.

[aj1987]

Curry or Harden
Dude had 1 good game against a team which forgot what defense was.

[Real14]

Curry or Harden
Curry since Tha mavs were phucked up majorly in tha lockeroom with rondo and Carlisle and an injured parsons.

[SaltyMeatballs]

Dude had 1 good game against a team which forgot what defense was.
Stop hating. 42 points is great no matter who's defending. He made a clutch shot OVER Tyson Chandler. Also, don't even forget Game 5 where the Rockets closed out. Harden had 28/8 on 47% shooting.

[UK2K]

Dude had 1 good game against a team which forgot what defense was.

28/8/4 on 47/39/96

Hate all you want but...

That's the first round MVP.

Suck it

Houston was also without 2 of their starters. Motiejunas, who played amazing this season, and Patrick Beverley

They weren't important like parsons and rondo to me.

[FKAri]

Paul if he comes through and Clips win tonight
but if they lose he's a chronic choker, right?

[SaltyMeatballs]

They weren't important like parsons and rondo to me.
Are you kidding?? D-Mo was easily the 2nd or 3rd best player this season for the Rockets. And Beverley's defense was huge! Rondo was nothing for the Mavs. It's basically D-Mo and Beverley vs Parsons.

[LA_Showtime]

Olynyk.

[UK2K]

They weren't important like parsons and rondo to me.
DMo was probably more valuable than Parsons this year, by himself.

When you throw Bev in there too...

Parsons is crap. Rondo is crap. Those guys are overpaid role players. That's all.

[Real14]

Are you kidding?? D-Mo was easily the 2nd or 3rd best player this season for the Rockets. And Beverley's defense was huge! Rondo was nothing for the Mavs. It's basically D-Mo and Beverley vs Parsons.
I understand what those role players did in tha regular season but THIS IS Tha playoffs aka tha REAL deal and Rondo and parsons would of made grat contributions if they were able to play. I just don't believe in D-Mo and Beverly like that.

[upside24]

I think it's that boy Curry without question

34/5/7 damn
Same here. Followed up a 40 pt game with a 39 in the closeout game.

AD was great though.

[SaltyMeatballs]

This just goes to show you don't know jack shit about basketball. Rondo did play in the playoffs this year you idiot. He turned out to be a huge negative. D-Mo on the other hand was huge all season for Houston. He's freaking 7 feet tall, plays amazing in the post, can make a three here and there and has solid post defense. That would've helped the Rockets even more in the playoffs. D-Mo and Beverley > Parsons and Rondo

[aj1987]

28/8/4 on 47/39/96

Hate all you want but...

That's the first round MVP.

Suck it
Not hating. Stating FACTS. Are we forgetting about the 6 TOV's now? The horrendous defense (both Harden and the Mav's as a team)? If we're ignoring that, then sure, Haren had a GREAT series. 28/4/8 against an ATROCIOUS defense and we're crowning him the MVP of the 1st round? :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Megabox!]

It's gotta be Curry, he closed out the Pelicans flawlessly

Let me stop you there. He was playing but he was not "playing", big ass difference. His on going feud with Jim Carrey's brother made him played nothing like himself and that situation phucked up tha whole team's chemistry. You have to believe that poor chesmistry in tha playoffs especially if a star player is not engaged will absolutely tear down that damn team's chances. Rockets had good chemistry too.

Is that Sansa on your avy?

Make it 75 x 75, higher quality and I'm repping.

CP3 tonight. Taking out the spurs is the ultimate despite the statistics. when was the last time spurs got beat in the first round??

Curry beating up on a young inexperienced team. Not impressive at all.

Spurs havent post a series since the 2013 finals and that was by one game against the ultra stacked plus prime lebron.

Cp3 no question tonight its happening

Show me the fact you stated. You said he had 1 good game when you actually had 2. And when he shot like shit in the 1st two games, he was still contributing with his playmaking. You Harden haters just don't stop with the nonsense. Also, the defense he played wasn't really atrocious at all. Maybe if you watched the games instead of looking at the box score, you'd know. Not being a mentally disabled dumbass also helps.

He has had some great games and was key in their game 6 win and I hope he has a monster game.

Love CP3 and his game. Don't want to see him out in the 1st round.

If YOU actually watched any of the games you'd know how bad Haren was on defense. Excuse me for not considering a 6 TOV game with dismal defense defense to be a good game. Dude averaged what? like 28/5/7 with shitty defense? That's the 1st round MVP? Hasn't your retarded ass heard of a guy named Curry? LeBron had a better series than Haren as well.

Oh, and Haren did it against the WORST defense in the PO's. By far.

I never said Harden was the 1st round MVP. Im just saying you're not giving him the credit he deserves.

I called him the MVP a couple of weeks ago and I ****ing hate the guy. I give credit when it's due even if I absolutely hate the player. Haren doesn't deserve any credit for the series. Dude played like shit in 4 of the games against a historically bad defense. You won't see me saying shit if he plays well next round. As I said, I do give credit when it's due and Haren doesn't deserve any.

EDIT: That was probably a month ago.

[Jud]

Why are you guys acting like the 1st round MVP matters? It's not even a thing! :roll:

So no credit for his game 5 performance? God damn, you are so ****ing pathetic :oldlol:

[aj1987]

Nope. 28/2/7 with 6 turnovers against the worst defense in recent times and this guy is supposed to be the MVP? :roll: :roll:

As I said, he had 1 good game in the first round against one of the WOAT defenses.

:facepalm

That's a really stupid thing to say. So because the Mavs are a horrible defensive team, Harden automatically doesn't get credit for what he did in the entire series? He was averaging 28/8/4 on 47/39/96. That's great if you ask me. In game 5 he had 28/8 on 47% shooting. Not bad at all if you exclude the turnovers. He made some huge shots and key passes when the game was close.

Why am I even arguing with you? :oldlol:

28/8 is great even if you have 6 turnovers. What did you expect him to do? Average 40/10/10 against a horrible defensive team? Not even Curry is going to average that. Neither would LeBron.

[upside24]

So no credit for his game 5 performance? God damn, you are so ****ing pathetic :oldlol:
Not trying to pick sides but he had 1 good game.

His play so far pales in comparison to Curry, CP3, LeBron and Davis.

Hell Davis put up 31.5 at 54%, 11 boards and 3 blocks a game against the BEST TEAM IN THE NBA in his FIRST playoff appearance.

It's hard to put Harden in that conversation when really he doesn't deserve to be unless his play improves as the playoffs continue.

My bad. Shouldn't have said that or worded it like that. Haren doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the "1st round MVP" is what I was trying to say. He was the best player in that series though.

You do know that Curry averaged 34/5/7 against a much better defensive team, right? LeBron averaged 27/9/7.

Are you trolling or just being dense as a MF?

How the **** is 28/8 in game 5 not a good game?! :wtf:

[MJistheGOAT]

CP3 if he has a historic game tonight and win
If not, Curry.
HM: Harden

Celtics are too bad to give MVP to someone of the Cavs.

[Smook A.]

My bad. Shouldn't have said that or worded it like that. Haren doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the "1st round MVP" is what I was trying to say. He was the best player in that series though.
Yeah I mean if we are going with a "1st round MVP" I'd give it to Steph Curry. Harden may have shot bad in his 1st two games, but overall he still played fairly well compared to his last 3 playoff series.

[aj1987]

How the **** is 28/8 in game 5 not a good game?! :wtf:
It's not a good game because he was a traffic cone on defense and he had 6 TOV's, you dumb shit. How hard is that to understand? :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

You're asking if im trolling when you said Harden didn't deserve ANY credit for his performance in the 1st round? Hey at least he didn't shit the bed this time. I don't care if the Mavs didn't play good defense. We're talking about PERFORMANCE here. Harden averaged 28 ppg, 8 apg, and 4 rpg on a very good shooting percentage from the field and he shot great at the line. But noooo, he deserves NO credit according to you. ZERO. NADA.

How am I trolling? Are you stupid enough to realize that you're the one who's being a dumbass here. Saying Harden didn't deserve any credit for his game 5 performance just because he turned the ball over 6 times. Go make that argument on TV with some sort of expert. They'd laugh at your face, then spit on you.

[upside24]

28 and 8 is a good game but Curry and Paul were just better in their games.

Paul made the game winner on an injured hamstring finishing with 27 on 9/13 FGs against the defending Champs.

I expected him to have a great game and he had an epic game considering the injury and the fact it was a Game 7 against the Spurs (who are a much better team than the Mavs.)
