Do you think James Harden deserves this year's MVP?
Nah
Nope 0 defense
The Herd with Colin Cowherd yes
No lebron James or chris paul
The Herd with Colin Cowherd of course
Aaaaaand if LeBron put up a 60pt triple double Colin would be aaaaaaaall over it saying how LeBron is the GOAT, how Mike never did it, forget the winning, he never did this get outta here man just appreciate the fact we have players in the league capable of doing stuff like this.
Zachary Anderson Yes that is true
Na not if it was against the same team
Zachary Anderson simple: LeBron had triple doubles in the playoffs and harden quits in the playoffs, he's no where to be find when it counts, stop it. You will change your mind once the rockets get bounce in the second round.
Zachary Anderson love your channel
I completely disagree...James Harden got a 60 point triple double at home, with a great coach, against one of the worst teams in the league, if lebron were to put up those numbers with the current dumpster fire that is the Cleveland Cavaliers it would be amazing. Don’t get me wrong James Harden is a great player and played one of the best games of his career, but he is surrounded with many other contributing factors that help him achieve these kinds of accolades. If Lebron was able to do this in Cleveland with a roster that has pretty much quit playing at this point, a coach that can’t develop any kind of dependable defensive or offensive scheme , and with a management team that has never consistently provided sustainable talent for their best player, it would be amazing. Giving Harden his props is the right thing to do and I don’t have a problem with that, but if lebron were do this right now, at this point in time, it would hold so much more significance.
If LeBron had 60, 10 and 11, Colin would propose to him
Devyn Corvington lol
Well if Lebron gets 60 then he's absolutely dominated everybody in the game.
If James Harden gets 60 that means he might've shot over 50% from the field that night and got to the line 20 times. He has the ball all the damn time.
I think the main issue here is that we celebrate all these ball-dominant players for passing the ball, taking half their teams shots, and getting occasional rebounds.
Yes but Lebron is a small forward, and Harden was the primary ball handler in that game with CP out, if he would have done this with Chris Paul on the floor it would be more special as he wouldn’t have the ball the whole game and take every shot , plus they were playing the magic
Jonathon T he had 60 points still.
11-12 on layups
8-18 on jumpshots
17-18 on free throws
triple doubles are meaningless.
Colin isn’t impressed by anything unless his husband LeBron does it
TJ ASYLUM 😭😭😭😭
or Brady
TJ ASYLUM facts 😂😂😂
That’s not just Colin that’s Bronsexuals in general lol
He loves LeBron as much as you hate him. Both groups can be irrational idiots with no base for their arguments, but the haters take the cake by far. You slobber over James Harden for getting 60 against Orlando but if LeBron were to do it in game 7 of the finals against the Warriors you would call it overrated. And he isn't even my favorite player but I can't stand hypocritical haters. Including Colin when it comes to Westbrook
Colin hates on any player not named LeBron James
Jon Swavyy and 60% of nba fans are lebron haters who hate on everything he does so🤷🏽♂️😂
Russell Westbrooks Lawyer because of stupid fanboys like you and colin
Zakaria Haji no because they see him being acknowledged as the best and they want to tear him down, im not even a lebron fan, they hate him cause their favorite player isnt as good as him, so they make excuses to belittle his greatness
Nah the hate is a result of stubborn Bronsexuals who act like no is on LeBron’s level
I always skip about a minute ahead for colins videos so i dont have to here his childhood/divorce analogy.
Nick Furious I DID THE EXACT SAME AFTER READING THIS. HIS ANALOGIES DAMN NEAR NOTHING WITH WHAT HE FOLLOWS THEM UP WITH. LOL SMH
thats the best part
Nick Furious LOL true!!!
facts
Best thing I have read all day
I think Colin is nervous that James Harden may steal the MVP from LeBron
Devyn Corvington Steal the MVP? Harden has been the runner for MVP most of the season.
Steal? LMAO Harden has been ahead of LeBron all year
I am sorry Colin but it's probably the most ridiculous thing you have ever said. No only Harden score 60 he did it with 63% shooting. Also, this game have nothing to do with last year playoff game. If everytime Lebron had a great night we bring up his mavs series, you would be the first to be outraged. Stop trying to diminish a great performance, something that had never been done before, because it's a player that you don't like. I don't even like Harden but I can still appreciate his game.
Lol if it was LeBron you would be all over his nuts. Give credit where credit is due
Ben Smith that’s the first thing that came to my mind too, players are making history but they get discredited until Lebron does something new.
This dude blows my mind sometimes😂 Harden had a performance for the ages and erybody knows it except for Colin apparently
It's sad how Colin is unaware of the fact that in the 80s, teams on average scored more than teams do today.
WALL·Es Channel yeah he really showed lack of knowledge there
80's nuggets scored 186 in a game once...them and the pistons were high scoring teams in the 80's...the supposed bad boys only held to teams to 101-102 a night and were vaulted as a great top 3 defense
But they were for years a top 2-3
offense and many teams heck the 2017 jazz held teams to less than the 87-90 title worthy pistons .....the 04 pistons held teams to 88...they were a great defense....the 80's were overrated...teams didn't defend..their were no analytics ...the 90's were a little better with handchekcing but Colin also forgets the 3 seconds in the paint rule on defense and offense that got implemented in the 2000's that pretty much ruined shaq and any centers career to be successful in the nba on both ends...now you can't hide on defense or stay near the rim on offense expecting rebounds and blocks...you actually have to guard shooters and stay by a man...different league.
WALL·Es Channel lmao exactly, when wilt scored 100, they won the game 169-147 without any overtime
Exactly. Literally all it takes is a quick google search to find this out. Scoring went way down in the 90s and early 00s and now it's starting to go back to the way it used to be in the 80s. People seem to forget how fast paced the game was back in the 80s and how little defense was played. Teams scored as many points as they do now but without hardly taking any threes,
Only guy in the media that is hating on Harden tonight. How could you not be impressed with that performance? Ridiculous
Trigga_5150 because it wasn’t lebron
So when anybody not named LeBron triple doubles are not impressive..... BUT when LeBron gets triple doubles he's the GOAT 😂😂😂
Tonio5100 I know. anybody hating on a 60pt triple double is just hating or running out of material to hate on.
With Skip Bayless it is the exact opposite. When anyone not named LeBron does something great he slobbers all over it but when LeBron does it he tries to find a way to diminish it. Like when he said LeBron didn't deserve finals MVP, if Khwai Leonard had put on the same performance he would have called it the greatest performance of all time.
Charles Hamilton Skip doesn't think triple doubles are impressive unless you score at least 20-25 points with it
Well he usually scores 27-30 points with his triple doubles so whats your point. And how does that refute what I just said?
Skip > CoLin
Westbrook could go 100/35/20 and Collin would still say Lebron had the better night.
Jeff Cavanaugh lol
Don't matter who he played, doesn't matter if Chris Paul wasn't there, don't matter if he shot a lot of free throws. The man had 60 10 and 11 how can you hate on that?
no one disrespects bill worrell
adrian dyna Exactly.
adrian dyna never disrespect bill... only Houstonians know that.... not bull.. drex.. nor calvin...
Is Colin this desperate for ratings?
Boy is this a cold take.
Nathan B he's just trying to be controversial. Learning from skip, trying to provoke.
Sean Bryant Colin pulled this before Skip
Nathan B He's literally just a troll with TV and radio.
Sure
For REAL!!! he has just lost all his CREDIBILITY with me.
Colins bias are almost as bad as his teeth.
Colin is such a hater. James harden ain't my fav player but are you serious. This performance is historic. NOBODY in the leagues 70 year history has a man recorded a 60 pt Triple double. Not wilt, oscar, michael, lebron. Cmon man give credit where credit is due
Lebron earlier this season had a 57 point triple double..no one cares..this is Why the numbers don't matter..is 3 extra points that big a deal?..
Even Nick Wright didn't deny Hardens performance, I swear if this was LeBron Colin would put him over MJ
Rico Lewis he wasn't arguing the performance he was saying that the broadcaster said that he had seem Hakeem and Clyede and those guys and that was the best performance he had seen. I don't know if you know but Hakeem had quadruple doubles with block I think that's way more impressive wouldn't you agree?
Dariel Alvarez if LeBron James drop a 60 point trip dub, do you honestly believe that Colin would be complaining about the broadcasters talking how impressive it was ? This sealed Hardens MVP and Colin doesn't like that, it's obvious
According to Colin if Westbrook or Harden gets a triple double its overrated and stat stuffing but if LeBron gets a triple double it's he's the Goat and he's better than MJ
Of course he wasn’t blown away he don’t even watch the games
didnt know tony parker was still the spurs second best player colin
Last year when Leonard went down TP was their second best player. He was playing well until he also got injured.
Tony Parker injured before Kawhi last season
I LOLd at that.
This dude is officially worse than Skip Bayless ever was. He literally flip flops every other day depending on where the hype is on a player. He did with Lebron during Steps MVP year, then did it to Steph, Brady this year, Cam Newton, Ben Simmons, Kobe, Jordan. The list goes on. One min their the greatest thing since sliced beard & then their the most overrated thing in the world.
Instagramchampange he literally spews fecal matter
I don't get how Skip Bayless is bad though, just because he doesn't succ off Bron everyday doesn't mean that he doesn't have a point.
I guess this is how he gets people’s attention. Cowherd and Skip are in that group with Lavar Ball. These folks would say anything ridiculous just to get people’s attention.
I’m from Cleveland and I’m 19, literally grew up watching LeBron and it makes me sick to see this guy suck him off so hard that he can’t acknowledge someone else’s achievements.
I’m one of the biggest Lebron fans ever! but guys like him make us REAL Bron fans look bad lol , Harden was cookin!! Stop hating Colin! cause if Bron did it everybody would be in all of it.
He was taking a shot at this era...it doesn't exclude lebron
freeWess7 😂😑
Colin lost all credibility when he said russ isn't a great player. Smh this man needs medical attention
Crazy because when people argue for lebron james as the goat the only advantage they have is advanced analytics.
Man say it again one time for the people in the back 👏🏾
Aaron Murrell there's also the argument that he's the most valuable player of all time.
Scott Bennici backed by what? ADVANCED ANALYTICS
Aaron Murrell lmao have you ever watched lebron play? I dont care about analytics the guy is an all time great.
r2on he is an all time great and the GOAT argument is always up for debate. Im just referencing a common argument for lebron as the goat especially from guys like colin
If it was LeBron Colin be. Did you see what LeBron did at 33? History LeBron did history always does. All of you talkin about triple doubles Guess what lebron is the first in history with 60 pts triple double LeBron LeBron MVP its obvious now but since is harden smh stats stats stats there are just stats who Cares about history just stats lmao bias af
Construct sentences
Then colin when lebron gets a triple double dont get blown away by it. Oh wait you have selective praise. It won't happen
I usually agree with Colin but I disagree here... sounds like hate
Dumbbells Only Funny you say this. I usually don't agree with Colin but here i do. Only the part where he says Hakeem did greater things than Harden regularly. Hakeem had a quadruple double. A real one not like LeBrons with turnovers.
At least he won, and put up an insane stat line idk why he is hating so much.
Watch 80s/90s basketball and all you see are guys sagging way off their guy. Foh with that stubborn mentality that scorers today couldn't do it back in the day. Durant, lbj, harden, and Steph would all get buckets back in the day too.
thejonghopark all those players you mentioned probably would average 35 back then
thejonghopark right? Nostalgia takes over logic. Tbh I think most modern players would destroy in the old school games.
Some of them could, some them would have to change their game... Its man to man ball, No switches, w 2 7footers in the paint. Big difference
no disrespect to the GOAT Hakeem, but how is the only 60 point 10 assist 10 rebound game in league history not the best game in franchise history?
Harden4MVP Hakeem is the only player do 2 quadruple-dubles
Serio Mesmo I’m well aware of that,my point isn’t anti Hakeem. but for Colin to act like Bill Worrell saying Harden’s game was the best he had seen means he must have been high is stupid
Harden4MVP I can agree with one thing, this is by far the best regular season performance by a rockets player... but i can't put over G6 Against the spurs in 95'
Harden4MVP the Dream is the only player to win an NBA title with no other, Allstar or all NBA player on his team that first title was the most impressive in the franchise.
Harden4MVP best individual performance * not best game
Ok most of Colin’s arguments are fair but come on man. He shot like 60 percent. 60 points on 30 shots that’s amazing. If you want to nitpick, he had 5 turnovers and shot 5/14 from the 3 point line. Come on Colin loosen up man, it was an excellent performance
That Houston announcer talked about watching Hakeem Olajuwon and this was more impressive, but didn't Olajuwon have a Quadruple Double
Hakeem showed up in the playoffs when it really mattered..backs to the wall..over and over again ..harden...not so much ..we could go over hakeem big stats and clutch games but I'd rather just say this...hakeem played both ends ..that is all
I never realized how negative Colin really is...wow. Funny, because one of the Rockets announcers is Clyde the Glide Drexler so Colin should be respectful.
I hate it when Colin diminishes James Harden talent by saying Mike D'Antoni made him the player he is because of Nash, Nash his first MVP year averaged 15 ppg and 11 apg last year James Harden averaged 29 ppg and 11 apg, James Harden is a great historic player like Westbrook and Colin fails to realise that
if LeBron did it, Colin would have came to work with no pants on
Colin is making good points to harden as a player and how the league is too into triple doubles but that performance is incredible. It’s one night man yeah so enjoy it
All I got to say is Hakeem had a quadruple double
If this was LeBron, you would have cemented him as the greatest player ever.
Cowherd shouldn't cover basketball. 60 points and 10 assists has never happened before. He beat the magic with no Paul, Gordon, and ariza.
But the cavs lose with k love, I.T, LEBRON to a pistons team that traded away three players.
I lost all respect for him I can't tell he never played basketball
The dude scored 60 points and 11 assists! How is that not insane?!? Cmon Colin, I gotta disagree on this one. Harden was responsible for about 85 points!
Wow... did I just watch 2 NBA "expert analysts" comment on a game that they clearly only box score watched for all intents and purposes? This wasn't a meaningless game. His team was without 3 of its major contributors. The bench was empty. He had no help. Still won. Is the game still about winning? You'd think it wasn't based on these "experts" trashing Harden for doing what he had to in order to win. Home court advantage matters and Harden fought for it when others would have quit. Props to him.
Idc who you're playing against, when you get a 60 point triple double, you gotta be a good player. It was a phenomenal performance. Without him they would have gotten smacked by the worst team in the league.
Colin doesn’t like it because it’s not beneficial for LeBron lol
Colin has a point..Harden isn't nearly as impressive as Hakeem.
That announcer was going overboard.
And I think Hardens 60 point triple double was impressive but that announcer went to far by belittling Hakeem.
when did Cowherd become Skip Bayless?
This is so funny. Aren't you the same guy who was raving about LBJ avareging a triple double in the Finals last year - JUST STOP, the next thing you will say is that Wilt's 100 points game was not impressive because "he was a scorer"
Soooooooo when LeBron hog & control the ball for his ENTIRE CAREER piling up stats for 15 years it's all good & now that other players starting to control the game more & pile up stats it's a problem 🤔👀 GTFOH
Unmm LeBron doesn't hog the ball. He is a great passer. Just bc the offense runs through him doesn't mean he hogs it
jacob alterman & James Harden not a great passer??? LeBron NEVER averaged 10 assist for a season..... I bet NOBODY in the history of the game has had the ball in their hands more than LeBron
jacob alterman also you do know it's possible to run the offense through someone WITHOUT them having the ball 80℅ of the time right? So you saying it's because they running the offense through LeBron is just an excuse LoL
You just sound like a hater lmao. If LeBron is a ball hog then so is EVERY superstar in the league.
Tonio5100 i never said James Harden wasn't a good passer. And LeBron is a 7 ast for a career as a forward. Last two years he was avg about 9 ast per game. That is great for a forward. He also had a guy named Kyrie Irving taking away his ast numbers. And Kobe had the ball way more than Lebron. So did Wilt and MJ
Omg if lebron did that...u knw what i dont even wanna imagine how much praise he would be giving lebron
Couldn't agree more. Glad someone in the media said it, and did so with no filter. If a regular fan said it, we haters. Thank you for being the voice of reason
Jesus, this guy needs to stop with these comparisons. He hates on everyone except lebron wtf and I'm a lebron fan
I like Colin but he is inflexible in his thinking and holds grudges. If you arent impressed with this, I dont know what to say
This guy says that fans have become upsesed with stats, yet he tries to justify Lebron as the goat by saying, just look at the stats, what a hypocrite
You're the geek. Respect historic performances.
Colin is pure comedic gold in this one 😂
I’m not a rockets fan but give harden his props this guy just needed something to talk about
JAMES HARDEN MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP MVP
This is the best triple double in NBA history. Outside of that, his point is valid. NBA baseball nerds don't understand.
Baseball is an INDIVIDUAL team sport. Pitcher vs batter. That's why numbers are so much more important in BASEBALL.
- Shame on the media
Why is Cleveland an answer to the video question? Lmao 😂
If LeBron scores 60 colin would cream his pants
Harden didn’t just get 10 rebounds but he got a 60 POINTS and 11 Assists along with them. Why are you hating soooo hard Colin?
The Rockets announcer didn't say it was the greatest performance he'd ever seen. He didn't say it was greater than anything Hakeem did. He didn't say that Harden should win MVP now. He said 'He'd never seen a game like this'...which is a fact, not an opinion since that was the first 60 pt triple double in league history...and he called it an mvp performance...its impossible to argue that if he did that every night he would win MVP. Sooooo...Colin Cowherd must be actually mentally disabled to interpret the call the way he did. Don't know anything about him but how did he get a show??
Colin is right on the money. Waiting for Harden to prove anything in the post season.
Bill Worell wasn't saying that the 60 point triple double was better than any game he ever saw from Hakeem or Malone or Clyde. He just said in all his time broadcasting he had "never seen a game like this"... which makes sense, because nobody in NBA history has done it.
Colin is right. The only triple doubles I geek out about are served at In-N-Out.
Cowlin and Doug are right. Any coach and team can work together for a star player to have triple doubles and score 60-100 points.
Colin Cowherd = The 2017-2018 Orlando Magic of sports commentators.
I think Colin's main point was to not get so caught up in it because people paid more attention to him actually getting the triple double than the performance. The announcers made it seem that the night only got validated when he got that last rebound with about 40 seconds left.
Take a middle school English class. It is called a hyperbole
Colin got two points here: all he mentions are factors that should put this performance into perspective and the media is going a little too crazy about it. That being said it was undoubtedly an all time great performance and Colin leaves out all the positive things like he often does
I always think the most important question for league MVP is "what would there team be like without them?"
This is his greatest take yet. Everything he said was true about James harden quitting last year in game 6. When it counts most, watch him shrink in the playoffs just watch
Im the first to criticize harden for his stat padding, especially when he has 35 in the third quarter while the rockets are up on a team by 30 and he'll go on to play the entire fourth quarter anyway, but that 60 point triple double was incredible. That game came down to the wire and harden had to do that in order too get the W. Big ups to harden.
Lol, I disagree with almost everything Cowherd says, BUT he entertains me.
Colin thinks of the patriots so highly because their system is effective but hates D’Antoni because his system is effective. It takes a great coach to recognize what they have to work with and how to utilize them to the best of their abilities.
Don't be a hater Collin.Putting up 60 points while also collecting 10 rebs (no matter how you do it) and dishing out 11 assists is historically great.No matter who plays with you and who you play against.Also even if the Magic are the worst team in the league their players are still among the top 300 players in the whole world.He wasn't playing against kids
4th best game score since the 83-84 season. Pretty pretty pretty good.
2:59 BREAKING NEWS 😂😂😂
He fr looks like the grinch
damn dude makes history within 24 hours yall hating on him.
I almost killed myself from eating food when colin said the commentators were high😭😭😭
Geez, Harden had a great night and you find a way to criticize the way he plays!? Ok some people may have gone overboard with how big a performance it was, but you dont need to bring him down just to try and minimize it. Bringing up that finals game against the Spurs and saying he doesnt play defense just to try and discredit him was uncalled for. Harden had a great night and it was probably the performance of the year so far.
Hate when people hate on someone when it's basically physically impossible for them to do it. lol it's sad 🤦🏽♂️
Hakeem's quadruple double > Harden's 60 point triple double.
it was a historic stat line he put up and he's deserved mvp for the last 3 years now but i agree that people are stupid about the triple double thing. if averaging a triple double gets you a 6th seed and a first round elimination, maybe focus on making your team better instead of your own stat line.
This dude could be a voice actor for South Park lmao he has it in him
We should admit this isnt the same thing as 60 points 20 so years ago. There are more points averaged in the game and less defense. We are seeing people score 50+ points all of the time now. We should look at the percentage of points scored by the player relative to their team and total points in the game as well
Muse Russell23 well James Harden scored half the points and was responsible for about two thirds
It’s a known fact the media hate Houston and their sports teams . The triple double was impressive considering CP and Ariza was out . With your logic every game CP out Harden should do this . It was a rare game considering no one has done it before . Yes him and Russ has had 50 point triple doubles but it wasn’t 60 .
Colin Cowherd is the Alex Jones of sports analysts
Insane that these guys use this opportunity to hate on Harden
He's got a point. This would have been news for 1 day and 1 day only if he had only gotten 9 rebounds.
He's forgetting he dropped 60 one effeicent, not sure exactly but well over 50% that was a MVP night. With 2-3 guys out they could've just gave them that game, plus hes now the scoring leader for one game by a rocket
Also he was tired and Spurs made it so someone else had to score/ carry the ball hence why they got Chris
For once I disagree with Colin. That game was amazing. Best of his career so far by far
His comment about how much teams score is incredibly misleading. The average number of points per game in the NBA is currently 105. The only time it was less than 100 ppg was before the 1957-58 season, and between the 1995-96 season and the 2007-08 season. When it comes to scoring more than 100 points, there have been 9 seasons in which the average ppg was less than it currently is, and 31 seasons in which the average ppg was more than it currently is. So he basically made a claim about too much scoring now when historically there have been 31 season that have had a higher average
If Harden or Westbrook scored 100 points and broke Wilts record Colin would still diss it
Harden scores 100
Colin: It’s just a night
LeBron scores 40
Colin: *swallow* *slurp* *gargle* More plz
