NBA MVP: Chris Paul-Led the Clips to almost the same amount of wins as they finished with last year. That is impressive if you ask me.
COY: Doug Collins 76ers coach-name me a team that you are more surprised about being where they are according to seedings at this point. No one saw a 3rd seed in the East coming.
6th man of the year: James Harden-Could be a starter on several teams and should be the starter for the Thunder. His production on the bench is some of the best in the league. One could argue that Lou Williams should be the 6th man because he is the only bench player leading his team in scoring off the bench. Can't argue with either one.
Most improved: Jeremy Lin-Last year couldn't keep a job and now is creating a media frenzy in New York with his play.
ROY: Kyrie Irving-Cavs are a lot better than anyone expected them to be this year.
Defensive player of the year: Dwight Howard-4peat!!
