Stephen Curry 認為本季 NBA MVP 會是 James Harden
是否由 Harden 讓 Curry 不能三連霸呢？
本季 NBA 賽事大約進行了一半，大概也推算得到最後兩強對戰會是哪兩隊，還是希望會有意想不到的冷門跑出，而剛剛 USA TODAY 就作了一個投票，統計大家認為本屆 NBA MVP 誰孰，結果卻顯示出是 James Harden，僅次於就是 Westbrook 、 Leonard 及 LeBron。雖然這個統計並不是官方結論，但其實不止他們有此想法， Stephen Curry 出席節目 「The Dan Patrick Show」 上，亦在訪問中透露他覺得 James Harden 能夠成為本屆 NBA MVP，以下是一些對話節錄。
Curry: I’d probably say James.
Dan Patrick: What is it about him that’s different than Russell Westbrook as far as value?
Curry: It’s probably not much as value, it’s just you have to award the better team, record-wise, as it’s kind of gone in the history of the MVP award. So I think James probably edges him out as far as that.
Dan Patrick: You can guard Westbrook for a game or Harden, you’ve got to pick one.
Curry: It don’t matter. … It’s a challenge either way, just as I hope they’d say the same about me.
