Depends how you look at it. Westbrook is having a career year, but if you compare him & Harden, there's also the difference of how both teams are doing, which is a factor. I'd love for Westbrook to get MVP, and wouldn't be surprised if he did, but I think Harden should be slightly favored just because of how his team is doing this year.

Harden's stats are similar to Westbrook's, yet his team is a 3 seed and Houston has hit the most team 3-pointers in a season, while he's averaging 11 dimes a game. I think Harden will win even though Russ is a beast.

Also, he hasn't had a record breaking season yet, he's still one trip-dub away from setting the record.

I think westbrook should win without a doubt, it shouldn't even be close. Only him and Oscar have averaged a triple double and he will most likely beat the triple double record. That's insane also people are forgetting what a triple double is, double figures in 3 categories? That's crazy

It gets really annoying how much people gas up Russ. I like him a lot and he's so fun to watch but people completely dismiss the fact that he's clearly statpadding and is inefficient. Often in games where OKC loses it's because he shoots so many shots and usually has a low percentage. I think he'd be a lot better and more stars would want to go to OKC if he changed his style of play a little bit
