I think it is the difference of teams success as well. Last season Harden won the MVP and his team was around the same places as this season, so when you look at it harden and rockets didn't do anything out of ordinary for them, it was expected of harden to lead rockets to top of the west conference.
On the other hand, Giannis made bucks a lot better this season (of course coach bud had a lot to do with it) and then bucks became the first seed in the east. Which means giannis both improved himself but also improved his team as well. That is why Giannis got the MVP, not because he was better than Harden but because he was the most "valuable" player, if we gave the award to the best player ever then KD or Lebron would have got all mvp's in the past decade every single year.

Congratulations to Giannis Antetekoumpo for taking the MVP. There are some people that disagree with this decision but I don't think this is a mistake right? Here is an article saying that Houston Rockets disagree with this decision.

And whose crying there? The voice of those many people who voted for Giannis is bigger than those who questioned this decision, being all around player deserved the award, better luck next time for Harden's fans, as there's no chance anymore to change that as Giannis already won the MVP. https://sports.inquirer.net/354598/rockets-respectfully-disagrees-with-nba-mvp-outcome
Still think Harden should have gotten the MVP over Giannis. James Harden had a historic season with his PPG that hasn't been matched since Michael Jordan. I still wish they would go back to the old format and award the MVP during at the end of the season and not after the NBA finals.
Let the others take the title, Harden already got it and it has been decided that Giannis had won the MVP. The guy deserve that and we have seen his performance for this season and no doubt that it belongs to him. Whatever their standard of choosing now, we just have to respect the decisions and it's over now. No one is comparable to the living legend, it's MJ and no one can par him.Can't blame his own thoughts. If you look at the numbers, Giannis and Harden numbers are really closed. Harden got the most PPG but Giannis put up great numbers too on other factors + the other criteria which increases more his chances to grab the NBA MVP awards.
They deserved both but this time, Giannis got it.

I think the media voted for Giannis because it was a break out year for the kid. Sure Harden had a historic season but that's just it. I mean it was expected of him to carry the team against the KD less GSW but he fall short again. I'm sure next season both of them will be amongst the top 2 MVP prospect so let's see if Harden can turn it around next year.If CP3 gets out then there will be a lot of changes.
Got to stay healthy if he wants that crown again.
But why not aim better. Get the Finals Championship trophy and a ring. That will be better than just aiming for a season MVP.
It is like Steve Nash once again. Same coach different team but with same gameplay. Steve Nash ball hog but with lots of assist. This time Harden ball hog but with lots of dribbles.
He should really change that to save some stamina.
It is still Gianis who deserves it for me. He is an all around guy. Hell! He should have also that Most Defensive Player crown.
. Speaking of CP3, he said he wanted to stay with Houston so let's see.

The decision made was right. Again, as I mentioned, stats might be closed but numbers don't lie. Giannis really won this.
Looks like they are pissed-off of the voting results because Harden only got 23 first-place votes out of 101.
But why not aim better. Get the Finals Championship trophy and a ring. That will be better than just aiming for a season MVP.
Yes, instead of complaining, they must focus on finding a solution on how not be choked during playoffs lol.

Something misleads you here. Playoffs stats aren't included in the criteria of choosing Season MVP.
There is no difference at all if the Awards night will be held at the end of the season or after the NBA finals.

Look at this tweet by the Black Mamba.
It seems that Giannis Antetokounmpo is he's M.V.P since the beginning. Look how this legendary player Kobe Bryant showing support for the young ones, and he is rooting for Giannis Antetokounmpo for next championship ring. This young Giannis Antetokounmpo still has more room to grow, hell yeah MVP!
I'm still looking forward on how Milwaukee Bucks handle Giannis Antetokounmpo for the next games and seasons.

Giannis is young and maybe Kobe see himself with him.
Did not get the championship ring but yet is starting to make some records by now.
Staying healthy will be his key to make it to the end.
We all know he is already a strong player but is prone to injuries whenever he pentrates the paint.
Time to make some changes with his gameplay too. Add some shooting to scare the defense and never be predictable when he is holding the ball. That kind of length will be hard to reach if he can make some perimeter shots.
Also props to Kobe, we all know that during his prime he is really unstoppable. And what makes his great is even after his career his over, he still gives shout out to players who really deserves accolades, just like the case of Giannis, for winning the MVP this year.
Yes, need to improved his shooting, his one on one and just just open court, Euro step, just saying.
I think his body is also getting stronger and I'm sure he is well taken care of by the management.
Shooting enhancement would really be needed and would be a great threat to other opponent teams.Once he do held the ball
then it would be unpredictable yet he can shoot out on any perimeter neither 3's or paint drive.
What's the latest transfer rumors?
Here's what I got so far:
- Klay panning to leave if he does not get max contract from the Warriors. A potential replacement is Dion Walters
- JR Smith could be reunited with Lebron if he's waived or traded by the Cavs
What do you have?
And oh by the way, the NBA is now changing the term "owner" to "governor"

Looks like Rob Pelinka really hated Magic Johnson or he is backstabbing him.
Rumors are being scattered by now that D'Angelo Russell is at the top list of options of the Lakers to take.
We know about the decision made by Magic trading Russell just because what he needed is a leader.
Now, he says he is a different player and more mature.
6 players are just signed in for the Lakers, taking Russell would fill their cap space and might just get "not that good" players to complete their roster.
Lakers is just waiting for Kyrie to be signed in Nets. Yes. It is a signal that they dont want Kyrie with them.

This is a great respect from Kobe to Giannis.
Giannis would feel great that previous MVP players in the NBA acknowledge his fame and his endeavors to be the number one player in the league.

I think the weird part is how Ayton was drafted on first pick because he is a big and "you can't teach big" sense and how a small forward/shooting guard that plays like a playmaker and a point guard that is a great shooter during the peak of shooters were drafted lower.
I mean even during the draft I have told people Luka already proved himself as a great player on euroleague and they should not sleep on euroleague because a kid getting mvp among all other big men shows how great Luka was and he was a proven talent instead of some college kid yet people still thought Trae would be great because he was capable of shooting.
This rookie of the year shows clearly how right I was to trust Luka but I will admit that Trae was better than I expected, when he started slow I said "this is what Trae will be like in NBA" but he started to play better eventually, they will most definitely get better with time and become amazing players, both of them.

You will take it seriously when the legend has spoken. Everyone loved and looked upon Kobe Bryant and his opinion is very valuable and worth to take. Many fans do like Giannis Antetokounmpo as well, I cheered him during the semis and this young blood has what it takes to be at the top. His effort are starting to show off its positive result but it will be a bad day if this guy goes to another team. How long is his contract with Bucks? I want him to have that championship with Bucks. It seems that Giannis Antetokounmpo is he's M.V.P since the beginning.
