Rockets slam Westbrook's MVP candidacy: 'Triple-doubles are just a number'

James Harden led his Houston Rockets to a convincing win over fellow MVP candidate Russell Westbrook's Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, so his team's social media department decided to make a statement of their own.

The tweet, which is a parody of Drake's "More Life" album playlist cover, takes an obvious shot at Westbrook, who's on pace to become the first player in 55 years to average a triple-double for an entire season.

Harden is averaging 29.4 points, a league-leading 11.3 assists, eight rebounds, and 1.5 steals on a true shooting percentage of 62.0 for the 51-22, third-place Rockets. Westbrook is averaging a league-leading 31.3 points to go along with 10.5 rebounds, 10.4 assists, and 1.6 steals for the 41-31, sixth-place Thunder.

The last time a player on a team outside the top three in its conference won MVP was Moses Malone in 1982.
