Since the completion of All-Star weekend, NBA fans have shifted their focus from who should start in the All-Star game to who should win the coveted MVP award.
With about 20 or so games left in the regular season, every game carries significant weight in determining who should be the MVP.
Just last night, MVP candidate, and arguably the favorite, James Harden traveled to San Antonio to face-off against another MVP candidate, Kawhi Leonard.
Although they both finished with 39 points, it was Leonard’s 17 fourth quarter points (compared to Harden’s four points) that stole the show late in the game.
