In the selection of the best domestic player with fan participation, once the Clippers can win, even if Leonard or George plays well, as long as Harden's statistics are not bad, and there is no James and Curry to play, then Harden will replace Leonard or George and become the best player of the game in the popular election.
Because the Clippers are relatively strong, Harden has been voted the best player of the day quite a few times, so a hypothesis comes out: Does Harden deserve to be discussed MVP this season?
If the discussion is about getting the MVP, then Harden obviously doesn't have a chance, he is not even the Clippers boss, and the Clippers boss Leonard is unlikely to compete for the MVP. However, if the discussion is about performance, Harden, who has been elected as a one-time MVP for so many times, still has a chance.
According to a report on January 9, **The Athletic reporter Seth Partnow wrote an article to rate the players he thinks have the capital to be discussed MVP, in which Harden is at the bottom of all the players who can discuss MVP, that is, MVP candidate goalkeeper. Other players at his level include Cavaliers boss Mitchell and Hawks boss Young. In addition, James, Durant and Curry were also nominated. To sum up, the reporter believes that Harden can be discussed as MVP, but it doesn't make much sense and is not ranked as good as James, Curry and Durant.
