I don’t think it matters either way. Some GMs and teams like to promote, others don’t, sort of a silly thing to have to address, but Kerr did it any way.
“I don’t think it’s our job to promote it,” and drew a distinction between the Warriors’ approach and that of the Houston Rockets. Rockets general manager Daryl Morey has publicly supported James Harden’s MVP campaign, actively promoting it on Twitter and in other venues.
“We’re trying to win games. We’ve got a lot of work to do,” Kerr said Thursday. “So, if Daryl Morey wants to run his own one-man campaign for James Harden, he can do that. That’s fine. But we’re focused on other stuff.”
Morey responded later Thursday on “The Dan Le Batard Show” on ESPN Radio when told of Kerr’s comments.
“I would say that myself and James are only focused on winning the championship, so I think that’s a bit of a straw-man argument he set up,” Morey said.
For the record I believe James Harden is the MVP.
