Shortly after Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo was voted the 2019 NBA MVP on Monday night, the Rockets’ official account sent a tweet that was an attempt to congratulate The Greek Freak.
But it was more just an attempt to argue the fact that Harden had a season for the ages.
Check out the tweets below:
Congrats to the new MVP, but we respectfully disagree.

Rather than let Giannis have his moment, the Rockets are still trying to prove they have the League MVP.
Instead they should worry about adding some players to their current roster.
Until they get James a little more help, that’s about all the Rockets will ever win, a Harden MVP.
Stay classy Rockets.
