Who leads each of the NBA awards for 2014-15?

More from Atlanta Hawks

The NBA is getting back into the swing of things in a post-deadline world, and after a great deal of player movement in a span of mere hours, the league has some catching up to do. Still, the top of the league was virtually unchanged, as the Hawks and Warriors stood pat in the final hours prior to the trade bonanza, and that provides a backdrop to what has already been a fantastic season on an individual basis for names like James Harden and Stephen Curry.

As we reach the end of February, we will once again be visiting you to fill out a mock “ballot” in each of the six major award categories, and while things are still quite fluid, this should present a snapshot of where the league is at the moment. There is still plenty of room for upheaval, even with less than 30 games remaining per team, and in this space, we play the full 82-game slate.

Let’s take a look at the choices, beginning with the Coach of the Year candidates.
