Agree or disagree?
I'm OK with most of the list. I might put Durant ahead of LBJ in the MVP race. I like Munroe as most improved but you really cant give it to anybody else but Lin at this point.
MVP
LBJ
ROY:
Kyrie Irving
Sixth Man:
James Harden
Coach:
Doug Collins
DPOY:
Dwight Howard
Most Improved:
Jeremy Lin

I honestly though Lin was a rookie.
I too would put Durrant above LBJ but I hate the POS.
I would also but Ibaka in the conversation for DPOY, not show who else besides those two would even be in the conversation though. Anyone have any other names to add?

Agree 100% on all of them.
I think most are easy, especially James Harden off the bench for 17 a game for OKC.

I would say that Frank Vogel and Doug Collins are pretty close though. Doing about the same (Pacers are like a game better) with similar teams who had similar expectations (make the playoffs). I dont think anyone though either would compete for home court like they are though.

Dont really think they are too deserving. But...Commander of Awesome;1093235 wrote: I would also but Ibaka in the conversation for DPOY, not show who else besides those two would even be in the conversation though. Anyone have any other names to add?
-Mike Conley
-Ibaka (is deserving)
-DeAndre Jordan
-Tony Allen
-Bynum ??? (I dont know, but he seems to get a ton of blocks and defensive rebounds whnever I watch the Lakers)

DPOY always seems to go to the guy with most blocks, right or wrong. I will say I can see Ibaka play into people's play though. They really do change their shot selection/way they shoot after he gets his first block.

Yeah Dpoy is always about rebounds and blocks. Camby won it a few times, and when he was with Denver he was HORRIBLE on defense. He would always leave to go try to block shots form the weak side and his man would clean up on the rebounds and putback dunks.
